Deuteronomy:1:19-25
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And we journeyed from Horeb ,
and went through all that great and dreadful wilderness which ye saw ,
by the way to the hill -
country of the Amorites ,
as the LORD our God commanded us ;
and we came to Kadesh-barnea .
*
And I said unto you : '
Ye are come unto the hill-country of the Amorites ,
which the LORD our God giveth unto us .
*
Behold ,
the LORD thy God hath set the land before thee ;
go up ,
take possession ,
as the LORD ,
the God of thy fathers ,
hath spoken unto thee ;
fear not ,
neither be dismayed .'
*
And ye came near unto me every one of you ,
and said : '
Let us send men before us ,
that they may search the land for us ,
and bring us back word of the way by which we must go up ,
and the cities unto which we shall come .'
*
And the thing pleased me well ;
and I took twelve men of you ,
one man for every tribe ;
*
and they turned and went up into the mountains ,
and came unto the valley of Eshcol ,
and spied it out .
*
And they took of the fruit of the land in their hands ,
and brought it down unto us ,
and brought us back word ,
and said : '
Good is the land which the LORD our God giveth unto us .'
