Num 13:18and see the land, what it is; and the people who dwell therein, whether they are strong or weak, whether they are few or many;

Num 13:19

Num 13:19and what the land is that they dwell in, whether it is good or bad; and what cities they are that they dwell in, whether in camps, or in strongholds;

Num 13:20

Num 13:20and what the land is, whether it is fat or lean, whether there is wood therein, or not. Be of good courage, and bring of the fruit of the land. Now the time was the time of the first-ripe grapes.
