|
|
31. But the men who had gone up with him said, "We are not able to go against the people. They are too strong for us."

31. But the men H376 that H834 went up H5927 with H5973 him said H559 , We be not able H3201 H3808 to go up H5927 against H413 the people H5971 ; for H3588 they H1931 are stronger H2389 than H4480 we.
|
|
32. So they brought the people of Israel bad news about the land they had spied out, saying, "The land we have gone to spy out is a land that destroys those who go there to live. All the people we saw in it are very large.
|
32. And they brought up H3318 an evil report H1681 of the land H776 which H834 they had searched H8446 unto H413 the children H1121 of Israel H3478 , saying H559 , The land H776 , through which H834 we have gone H5674 to search H8446 it, is a land H776 that H1931 eateth up H398 the inhabitants H3427 thereof ; and all H3605 the people H5971 that H834 we saw H7200 in H8432 it are men H376 of a great stature H4060 .
|
|
33. We saw the Nephilim there. (The sons of Anak are part of the Nephilim.) We looked like grasshoppers in our own eyes, and we looked the same to them."
|
33. And there H8033 we saw H7200 H853 the giants H5303 , the sons H1121 of Anak H6061 , which come of H4480 the giants H5303 : and we were H1961 in our own sight H5869 as grasshoppers H2284 , and so H3651 we were H1961 in their sight H5869 .
