From the tribe of Simeon, Shaphat the son of Hori;

From the tribe of Judah, Caleb the son of Jephunneh;

From the tribe of Issachar, Igal the son of Joseph;

From the tribe of Ephraim, Hoshea the son of Nun;

From the tribe of Benjamin, Palti the son of Raphu;

From the tribe of Zebulun, Gaddiel the son of Sodi;

From the tribe of Joseph, that is, from the tribe of Manasseh, Gaddi the son of Susi;

From the tribe of Dan, Ammiel the son of Gemalli;

From the tribe of Asher, Sethur the son of Michael;

From the tribe of Naphtali, Nahbi the son of Vophsi;

From the tribe of Gad, Geuel the son of Machi.

These are the names of the men whom Moses sent to spy out the land. And Moses called Hoshea the son of Nun Joshua.

And when Moses sent them to spy out the land of Canaan, he said to them, Go up this way into the Negev, and go up into the hill country;

And see what the land is like; and whether the people who live in it are strong or weak, whether they are few or many;

And whether the land in which they dwell is good or bad; and whether the cities that they live in are like camps or with fortifications;

And whether the land is fat or lean; whether there are trees in it or not. Therefore strengthen yourselves and bring some of the fruit of the land. Now the time was the time of the first ripe grapes.

So they went up and spied out the land from the wilderness of Zin to Rehob, near the entrance of Hamath.

And when they had gone up through the Negev, they came to Hebron; and Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, the descendants of Anak, were there. (Now Hebron was built seven years before Zoan in Egypt.)

Then they came to the Valley of Eshcol, and from there they cut down a branch with a single cluster of grapes; and they carried it on a pole between two of them. They also cut off some of the pomegranates and some of the figs.

That place was called the Valley of Eshcol, because of the cluster which the children of Israel cut down from there.
