Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
1Profectusque est populus de Haseroth, fixis tentoriis in deserto Pharan.
2“Send men, that they may spy out the land of Canaan, which I give to the children of Israel. Of every tribe of their fathers, you shall send a man, every one a prince among them.”
2Ibique locutus est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:
3Moses sent them from the wilderness of Paran according to the commandment of the LORD. All of them were men who were heads of the children of Israel.
3Mitte viros, qui considerent terram Chanaan, quam daturus sum filiis Israël, singulos de singulis tribubus, ex principibus.
4These were their names: Of the tribe of Reuben, Shammua the son of Zaccur.
4Fecit Moyses quod Dominus imperaverat, de deserto Pharan mittens principes viros, quorum ista sunt nomina.
5Of the tribe of Simeon, Shaphat the son of Hori.
5De tribu Ruben, Sammua filium Zechur.
6Of the tribe of Judah, Caleb the son of Jephunneh.
6De tribu Simeon, Saphat filium Huri.
7Of the tribe of Issachar, Igal the son of Joseph.
7De tribu Juda, Caleb filium Jephone.
8Of the tribe of Ephraim, Hoshea the son of Nun.
8De tribu Issachar, Igal filium Joseph.
9Of the tribe of Benjamin, Palti the son of Raphu.
9De tribu Ephraim, Osee filium Nun.
10Of the tribe of Zebulun, Gaddiel the son of Sodi.
10De tribu Benjamin, Phalti filium Raphu.
11Of the tribe of Joseph, of the tribe of Manasseh, Gaddi the son of Susi.
11De tribu Zabulon, Geddiel filium Sodi.
12Of the tribe of Dan, Ammiel the son of Gemalli.
12De tribu Joseph, sceptri Manasse, Gaddi filium Susi.
13Of the tribe of Asher, Sethur the son of Michael.
13De tribu Dan, Ammiel filium Gemalli.
14Of the tribe of Naphtali, Nahbi the son of Vophsi.
14De tribu Aser, Sthur filium Michaël.
15Of the tribe of Gad, Geuel the son of Machi.
15De tribu Nephthali, Nahabi filium Vapsi.
16These are the names of the men who Moses sent to spy out the land. Moses called Hoshea the son of Nun Joshua.
16De tribu Gad, Guel filium Machi.
17Moses sent them to spy out the land of Canaan, and said to them, “Go up this way by the South, and go up into the hill country.
17Hæc sunt nomina virorum, quos misit Moyses ad considerandam terram: vocavitque Osee filium Nun, Josue.
18See the land, what it is; and the people who dwell therein, whether they are strong or weak, whether they are few or many;
18Misit ergo eos Moyses ad considerandam terram Chanaan, et dixit ad eos: Ascendite per meridianam plagam. Cumque veneritis ad montes,
19and what the land is that they dwell in, whether it is good or bad; and what cities they are that they dwell in, whether in camps, or in strongholds;
19considerate terram, qualis sit: et populum qui habitator est ejus, utrum fortis sit an infirmus: si pauci numero an plures:
20and what the land is, whether it is fertile or poor, whether there is wood therein, or not. Be courageous, and bring some of the fruit of the land.” Now the time was the time of the first-ripe grapes.
20ipsa terra, bona an mala: urbes quales, muratæ an absque muris:
21So they went up, and spied out the land from the wilderness of Zin to Rehob, to the entrance of Hamath.
21humus, pinguis an sterilis, nemorosa an absque arboribus. Confortamini, et afferte nobis de fructibus terræ. Erat autem tempus quando jam præcoquæ uvæ vesci possunt.
22They went up by the South, and came to Hebron; and Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, the children of Anak, were there. (Now Hebron was built seven years before Zoan in Egypt.)
22Cumque ascendissent, exploraverunt terram a deserto Sin, usque Rohob intrantibus Emath.
23They came to the valley of Eshcol, and cut down from there a branch with one cluster of grapes, and they bore it on a staff between two. They also brought some of the pomegranates and figs.
23Ascenderuntque ad meridiem, et venerunt in Hebron, ubi erant Achiman et Sisai et Tholmai filii Enac: nam Hebron septem annis ante Tanim urbem Ægypti condita est.
24That place was called the valley of Eshcol, because of the cluster which the children of Israel cut down from there.
24Pergentesque usque ad Torrentem botri, absciderunt palmitem cum uva sua, quem portaverunt in vecte duo viri. De malis quoque granatis et de ficis loci illius tulerunt:
25They returned from spying out the land at the end of forty days.
25qui appellatus est Nehelescol, id est Torrens botri, eo quod botrum portassent inde filii Israël.
26They went and came to Moses, to Aaron, and to all the congregation of the children of Israel, to the wilderness of Paran, to Kadesh; and brought back word to them and to all the congregation. They showed them the fruit of the land.
26Reversique exploratores terræ post quadraginta dies, omni regione circuita,
27They told him, and said, “We came to the land where you sent us. Surely it flows with milk and honey, and this is its fruit.
27venerunt ad Moysen et Aaron et ad omnem cœtum filiorum Israël in desertum Pharan, quod est in Cades. Locutique eis et omni multitudini ostenderunt fructus terræ:
28However, the people who dwell in the land are strong, and the cities are fortified and very large. Moreover, we saw the children of Anak there.
28et narraverunt, dicentes: Venimus in terram, ad quam misisti nos, quæ revera fluit lacte et melle, ut ex his fructibus cognosci potest:
29Amalek dwells in the land of the South. The Hittite, the Jebusite, and the Amorite dwell in the hill country. The Canaanite dwells by the sea, and along the side of the Jordan.”
29sed cultores fortissimos habet, et urbes grandes atque muratas. Stirpem Enac vidimus ibi.
30Caleb stilled the people before Moses, and said, “Let’s go up at once, and possess it; for we are well able to overcome it!”
30Amalec habitat in meridie, Hethæus et Jebusæus et Amorrhæus in montanis: Chananæus vero moratur juxta mare et circa fluenta Jordanis.
31But the men who went up with him said, “We aren’t able to go up against the people; for they are stronger than we.”
31Inter hæc Caleb compescens murmur populi, qui oriebatur contra Moysen, ait: Ascendamus, et possideamus terram, quoniam poterimus obtinere eam.
32They brought up an evil report of the land which they had spied out to the children of Israel, saying, “The land, through which we have gone to spy it out, is a land that eats up its inhabitants; and all the people who we saw in it are men of great stature.
32Alii vero, qui fuerant cum eo, dicebant: Nequaquam ad hunc populum valemus ascendere, quia fortior nobis est.
33There we saw the Nephilim, the sons of Anak, who come from the Nephilim. We were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight.”
33Detraxeruntque terræ, quam inspexerant, apud filios Israël, dicentes: Terra, quam lustravimus, devorat habitatores suos: populus, quem aspeximus, proceræ staturæ est.
