1 And YAHUVEH spoke to Moses, saying, 2 Send men for you, and they shall spy out the land of Canaan which I am giving
to the sons of Israel; you shall send one man for the tribe of his fathers, one
man, every one a leader among them. 3 And by the command of YAHUVEH Moses sent them from the wilderness of Paran
they were all of them men, heads of the sons of Israel. 4 And these were their names: of the tribe of Reuben, Shammua the son of Zaccur; 5 of the tribe of Simeon, Shaphat the son of Hori; 6 of the tribe of Judah, Caleb the son of Jephunneh; 7 of the tribe of Issachar, Igal the son of Joseph; 8 of the tribe of Ephraim, Joshua the son of Nun; 9 of the tribe of Benjamin, Palti the son of Raphu; 10 of the tribe of Zebulun, Gaddiel the son of Sodi; 11 of the tribe of Joseph, of the tribe of Manasseh, Gaddi the son of Susi; 12 of the tribe of Dan, Ammiel the son of Gemalli; 13 of the tribe of Asher, Sethur the son of Michael; 14 of the tribe of Naphtali, Nahbi the son of Vophsi; 15 of the tribe of Gad, Geuel the son of Machi. 16 These were the names of the men whom Moses sent to spy out the land. And
Moses called Hoshea the son of Nun, Yahoshua. 17 And Moses sent them to spy out the land of Canaan, and said to them, You go
up this way into the Negev, and go up into the hills; 18 and you shall see the land, what it is, and the people who are living on it,
whether it is strong or feeble; whether it is few or many; 19 and what the land is in which they live, whether good or bad; and what are
the cities in which they live, whether in camps or in fortresses; 20 and what the land is, whether it is fat or lean; whether wood is in it or
not. And you shall make yourselves strong and shall take of the fruit of the
land. And it was the days of the first ripe grapes. 21 And they went up and spied out the land, from the wilderness of Zin to Rehob,
coming to Hamath. 22 And they went up into the Negev, and came to Hebron. And Ahiman, Sheshai and
Talmai, the sons of Anak, were there. And Hebron had been built seven years
before Zoan in Egypt. 23 And they came in to the valley of Eshcol, and cut down from there a branch
and one cluster of grapes. And they carried it on a staff by two; also of the
pomegranates and of the figs. 24That place was called the Valley of Eshcol, because of the cluster which the
sons of Israel cut from there. 25 And they returned from spying out the land at the end of forty days. 26 And they went and came in to Moses and to Aaron, and to all the company of
the congregation of the sons of Israel, to the wilderness of Paran, to Kadesh.
And they brought them and all the congregation word, and made them see the fruit
of the land. 27 And they reported to him and said, We came to the land where you sent us, and
indeed it is flowing with milk and honey; and this is its fruit. 28 But the people that live in the land are fierce, and the cities are walled
up, very great. And also we have seen the children of Anak there. 29 Amalek lives in the land of the Negev, and the Hittite, and the Jebusite, and
the Amorite live in the hills. And the Canaanite is living by the sea, and
beside the Jordan. 30 And Caleb stilled the people before Moses, and said, We will certainly go up,
and we will seize it, for we are well able to do it. 31 And the men who had gone up with him said, We are not able to go up against
the people, for it is stronger than we. 32 And they sent out an evil report of the land which they had spied out to the
sons of Israel, saying, The land into which we passed, to spy it out, is a land
eating up the ones living in it. And all the people we saw in its midst were men
of stature. 33 And we saw the giants there, the sons of Anak, of the giants. And we were in
our own eyes as grasshoppers, and so we were in their eyes.
*~Numbers Chapter 14 ~*
1 And all the congregation lifted up their voice and cried; and the people wept
during that night. 2 And all the sons of Israel murmured against Moses, and against Aaron. And all
the congregation said to them, Oh that we had died in the land of Egypt, or in
this wilderness, oh that we had died! 3 And why is YAHUVEH bringing us into this land to fall by the sword? Our wives
and our infants have become a prey. Is it not good for us to return to Egypt? 4 And they said each to his brother, Let us give a leader and return to Egypt. 5 And Moses and Aaron fell on their faces before all the assembly of the
congregation of the sons of Israel. 6 And Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, of those who spied
out the land, tore their garments. 7 And they spoke to all the congregation of the sons of Israel, saying, The land
into which we passed, to spy it out, is an exceedingly good land. 8 If YAHUVEH has delighted in us, then He will bring us into this land and will
give it to us, a land which is flowing with milk and honey. 9 Only, do not rebel against YAHUVEH. And you, do not fear the people of the
land, for they are our bread; their defense has turned away from them; and
YAHUVEH is with us; do not be afraid of them. 10 And all the congregation said to stone them with stones. And the glory of
YAHUVEH appeared in the tent of meeting, to all the sons of Israel. 11 And YAHUVEH said to Moses, Until when will this people despise Me? And until
when will they continue not to believe in Me for all the signs I have done in
its midst? 12 I shall strike it with pestilence and dispossess it. And I will make you a
nation greater and mightier than it. 13 And Moses said to YAHUVEH, And the Egyptians will hear. For You have brought
up this people out of their midst with Your power. 14 And they will say to the one living in this land, They have heard that You,
YAHUVEH, are in the midst of this people, who is seen eye to eye. You are
YAHUVEH, and Your cloud stands over them; in a pillar of cloud You go before
them by day, and in a pillar of fire by night. 15 And will You cause this people to die as one man? Then the nations who have
heard Your fame will speak, saying, 16 Because YAHUVEH is not able to bring this people into the land which He swore
to them, therefore He has slain them in the wilderness. 17 And now, I beg You, let the power of YAHUVEH be great, as You have spoken,
saying, 18 YAHUVEH is slow to anger, and of great mercy, bearing away iniquity and
transgression; and by no means will clear the guilty, visiting the iniquity of
the fathers on the sons, on the third and on the fourth generation . 19 I pray, forgive the iniquity of this people, according to the greatness of
Your mercy, and as You have gone with this people from Egypt, even until now. 20 And YAHUVEH said, I have forgiven according to your word; 21 but as I live, all the earth shall be filled with the glory of YAHUVEH; 22 for all the men who are seeing My glory, and My miracles which I have done in
Egypt and in the wilderness, and have tried Me these ten times, and have not
listened to My voice, 23 they shall not see the land which I have sworn to their fathers. Yea, not one
of those who provoked Me shall see it. 24 And My servant Caleb, because there is another spirit in him, and he is fully
following Me, I shall bring him into the land into which he has gone, and his
seed shall possess it. 25 And the Amalekite and the Canaanite were living in the valley. Tomorrow turn
and pull up stakes for yourselves; going into the wilderness, the way of the Sea
of Reeds. 26 And YAHUVEH spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying, 27 How long shall I bear with this evil company who are murmuring against Me? I
have heard the murmurings of the sons of Israel which they are murmuring against
Me. 28 Say to them, As I live, says YAHUVEH, as surely as you have spoken in My
ears, so I will do to you. 29 Your dead bodies shall fall in this wilderness, even all your numbered sons,
as to your whole number, from twenty years old and upward, in that you have
murmured against Me. 30 You shall certainly not come into the land which I lifted up My hand to cause
you to live in it, except Caleb the son of Jephunneh and Joshua the son of Nun. 31 As for your infants, of whom you have said, They shall be a prey, I shall
bring them in, and they shall know the land which you have rejected. 32 As for you, your carcasses shall fall in this wilderness. 33 And your sons shall be shepherds in the wilderness forty years, and shall
bear your fornications until your carcasses are wasted in the wilderness; 34 by the number of the days in which you spied out the land, forty days, a day
for a year, a day for a year; you shall bear your iniquities forty years; you
shall know My alienation from you. 35 I am YAHUVEH; I have spoken. I shall do this to all this evil company who are
gathered together against Me. They shall be brought to an end in this
wilderness, and there they shall die. 36 And the men whom Moses had sent to spy out the land, and who, when they
returned, made all the congregation to murmur against him, by bringing up an
evil report against the land, 37 even those men bringing up an evil report of the land died by the plague
before YAHUVEH. 38 But Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, remained alive of
those men that went to spy out the land. 39 And Moses told these words to all the sons of Israel; and the people mourned
deeply. 40 And they rose up early in the morning and went up to the top of the mountain,
saying, Behold, we are here, and we will go up to the place which YAHUVEH has
said, for we have sinned. 41 And Moses said, Why do you now transgress the mouth of YAHUVEH, since it will
not prosper? 42 Do not go up, for YAHUVEH is not in your midst, and you will be defeated by
your enemies. 43 For the Amalekite and the Canaanite are there before you; and you shall fall
by the sword because you have turned back from following YAHUVEH; and YAHUVEH is
not with you. 44 And they presumed to go up to the top of the mountain, but the ark of the
covenant of YAHUVEH and Moses did not leave the middle of the camp. 45 And the Amalekite and the Canaanite living in that mountain came down and
struck them, and beat them down, to Hormah.
*~Numbers Chapter 15 ~*
1 And YAHUVEH spoke to Moses, saying, 2 Speak to the sons of Israel and say to them, When you have come to the land of
your dwellings, which I am giving to you, 3 then you shall prepare a fire offering to YAHUVEH, a burnt offering, or a
sacrifice, in fulfillment of a vow, or as a freewill offering, or in your
appointed seasons, to make a soothing fragrance to YAHUVEH, out of the herd, or
out of the flock. 4 And he who is bringing his offering to YAHUVEH shall bring near a food
offering of flour, a tenth part, mixed with a fourth of a hin of oil; 5 and wine for a drink offering, a fourth of a hin you shall prepare for the
burnt offering, or for a sacrifice, for the one lamb. 6 Or you shall prepare a food offering of flour for a ram, two tenth parts mixed
with oil, a third of a hin; 7 and wine for a drink offering, a third part of a hin. You shall bring it near,
a soothing fragrance to YAHUVEH. 8 And when you prepare a son of the herd for a burnt offering, or for a
sacrifice, in fulfillment of a vow, or peace offerings to YAHUVEH, 9 then he shall bring near for the son of the herd a food offering of flour,
three tenth parts, mixed with oil, a half of a hin; 10 and you shall bring wine near for a drink offering, a half of a hin, as a
fire offering of soothing fragrance to YAHUVEH. 11 So it shall be done for one ox, or for the one ram, or for a lamb of the
sheep, or of the goats. 12 You shall prepare according to the number. So you shall do for everyone
according to their number. 13 All that are native shall do these things in this way, in bringing in an
offering made by fire, of a soothing fragrance to YAHUVEH. 14 And if an alien lives with you, or whoever may be among you, through-out your
generations, and desires to offer a fire offering of a soothing fragrance to
YAHUVEH; as you do, so he shall do. 15 As for the congregation, there shall be one statute both for you and for the
alien that lives with you, a never ending statute throughout your generations;
as you are, so shall the alien be before YAHUVEH. 16 There shall be one law and one ordinance both for you and for the alien that
lives with you. 17 And YAHUVEH spoke to Moses, saying, 18 Speak to the sons of Israel and say to them, When you come into the land to
which I bring you, 19 then it shall be that when you eat of the bread of the land, you shall lift
up a heave offering to YAHUVEH. 20 You shall lift up a cake of the first of your dough as a heave offering; as
the heave offering of the threshing floor, so you shall lift it up. 21 You shall give of the first of your dough to YAHUVEH, a heave offering for
your generations. 22 And when you shall err and shall not perform all these commands which YAHUVEH
has spoken to Moses, 23 even all that YAHUVEH has commanded you by the hand of Moses from the day
that YAHUVEH commanded, and onward for your generations, 24 then it shall be, if it be done in ignorance by the congregation, without
knowledge, even all the congregation shall offer a son of the herd, one bull,
for a burnt offering, for a soothing fragrance to YAHUVEH, and its food
offering, and its drink offering, according to the ordinance; and one kid of the
goats for a sin offering. 25 And the priest shall atone for all the congregation of the sons of Israel;
and it shall be forgiven them. For it was in ignorance, and they have brought
their offering, a fire offering to YAHUVEH, and their sin offering before
YAHUVEH for their error. 26 And all the congregation of the sons of Israel, and the alien that lives
among them, shall be forgiven; for as to all the people, it was in ignorance. 27 And if one person sins through ignorance, then he shall bring a she goat of
the first year for a sin offering. 28 And the priest shall atone for the soul that errs when he sins through
ignorance before YAHUVEH to atone for him. And he shall be forgiven, 29 both the native among the sons of Israel, and the alien that lives among
them; one law shall be to you for him who acts in error. 30 And the soul that does anything with a high hand in defiance, whether of a
native or of the alien, the same blasphemes YAHUVEH. And that person shall be
cut off from the midst of his people. 31 For he has despised the Word of YAHUVEH and has broken His command; that soul
shall utterly be cut off; his iniquity shall be on him. 32 And while the sons of Israel were in the wilderness they found a man
gathering sticks on the Sabbath day. 33 And those who found him gathering sticks brought him to Moses and Aaron, and
to all the congregation. 34 And they put him under guard; for it had not been declared what should be
done to him. 35 And YAHUVEH said to Moses, surely, the man shall die; all the congregation
shall stone him with stones outside the camp. 36 And all the congregation brought him outside the camp and stoned him with
stones. And he died, as YAHUVEH commanded Moses. 37 And YAHUVEH spoke to Moses, saying, 38 Speak to the sons of Israel and you shall say to them that they shall make
themselves fringes on the corners of their garments, for their generations. And
they shall put a thread of blue with the fringe of each corner. 39 And He shall be to you for a fringe, that you may look on it and remember all
the commandments of YAHUVEH, and do them; and that you do not go about after
your own heart and your own eyes after which you fornicate; 40 that you may remember and do all My commandments, and be holy to your ELOHIM. 41 I am YAHUVEH your ELOHIM who brought you out of the land of Egypt, to be your
ELOHIM. I am YAHUVEH your ELOHIM.
