20. Then I said unto you, Ye are come unto the mountain of the Amorite, which the Lord our God gives unto us.
21. Behold, the Lord thy God has given the land before thee; go up and possess it, as the Lord God of thy fathers has said unto thee; fear not, neither be discouraged.
22. And ye came near unto me every one of you and said, We will send men before us, and they shall spy us out the land and bring us word again by what way we must go up and into what cities we shall come.
23. And the saying seemed good unto me, and I took twelve men of you, one of each tribe.
24. And they turned and went up into the mountain and came unto the valley of Eshcol and spied out the land.
25. And they took of the fruit of the land in their hands and brought it down unto us and brought us word again and said, It is a good land which the Lord our God gives us.
