25 After exploring the land of Canaan for forty days,
26 the twelve men returned to Kadesh in the Paran Desert and told Moses, Aaron, and the people what they had seen. They showed them the fruit
27 and said:Look at this fruit! The land we explored is rich with milk and honey.
28 But the people who live there are strong, and their cities are large and walled. We even saw the three Anakim clans.
29 Besides that, the Amalekites live in the Southern Desert; the Hittites, Jebusites, and Amorites are in the hill country; and the Canaanites live along the Mediterranean Sea and the River Jordan.
30 Caleb calmed down the crowd and said, “Let's go and take the land. I know we can do it!”
31 But the other men replied, “Those people are much too strong for us.”
