20 and what maner of lande it is: whether it be fat or leane, and whether there be trees therin or not. Be of a good corage, and brynge of the frute of the lande. And it was about the tyme that grapes are fyrst rype.
21 And so they went vp, & searched out the lande from the wildernesse of Zin vnto Rehob, as men come to Hemath,
22 & they ascended vnto the south, and came vnto Hebron, where Ahiman was & Sesai & Thalmani, the sonnes of Enack. Hebron was buylt seuen yere before Zoan in Egipt.
23 And they came vnto the ryuer of Escol, and cut downe there a braunch with one cloustre of grapes and twayne bare it vpon a staffe: and they brought also of the pomgranates and of the fygges.
24 And the place was called the ryuer Escol: because of the cloustre of grapes which the children of Israel cut downe thence.
25 And they turned back agayne from searchynge of the lande after fourty dayes.
26 And they went and came to Moses and Aaron, and vnto all the multitude of the chyldren of Israel, in the wildernes of Pharan: which is Cades, and brought them worde, and also vnto all the congregacion, and shewed them the frute of the lande.

28 Neuerthelesse, the people be stronge that dwell in the lande, and the cityes are walled and exceadynge greate: and moreouer, we sawe the children of Enack there.
29 The Amaleckes dwell in the south contrey, and the Hethites, Iebusites, & the Amorites dwell in the mountaynes, & the Cananites dwell by the see, and by the coaste of Iordan.
30 And Caleb stylled the of the people before Moses, saying: we wyll go vp, and conquerre it: for we be able to ouercome it.
31 But the men that went vp with hym, sayde: We be not able to go vp against the people: for they are stronger than we.
32 And they brought vp an euell reporte of the lande which they had searched, saying vnto the children of Israel: The land which we haue gone thorowe to searche it out, is a lande that eateth vp the inhabiters therof: and the people that we sawe in it, are men of a greate stature.
33 And there we sawe also gyauntes, the chyldren of Enack, which come of the gyauntes. And we semed in oure syght as it were greshoppers, and so we did in theyr syght.
