18I commanded you at that time all the things which you should do.
19We journeyed from Horeb, and went through all that great and terrible wilderness which you saw, by the way to the hill-country of the Amorites, as Yahweh our God commanded us; and we came to Kadesh-barnea.
20I said to you, You are come to the hill-country of the Amorites, which Yahweh our God gives to us.
21Behold, Yahweh your God has set the land before you: go up, take possession, as Yahweh, the God of your fathers, has spoken to you; don`t be afraid, neither be dismayed.
22You came near to me everyone of you, and said, Let us send men before us, that they may search the land for us, and bring us word again of the way by which we must go up, and the cities to which we shall come.
23The thing pleased me well; and I took twelve men of you, one man for every tribe:
24and they turned and went up into the hill-country, and came to the valley of Eshcol, and spied it out.
