Deuteronomy 1:21-23

Young's Literal Translation

²¹ see, Jehovah thy God hath set before thee the land; go up, possess, as Jehovah, God of thy fathers, hath spoken to thee; fear not, nor be affrighted.

²² `And ye come near unto me, all of you, and say, Let us send men before us, and they search for us the land, and they bring us back word [concerning] the way in which we go up into it, and the cities unto which we come in;

²³ and the thing is good in mine eyes, and I take of you twelve men, one man for a tribe.
