New International Version
Numbers 13:23-28
New International Version
23 When they reached the Valley of Eshkol,[a](A) they cut off a branch bearing a single cluster of grapes. Two of them carried it on a pole between them, along with some pomegranates(B) and figs.(C) 24 That place was called the Valley of Eshkol because of the cluster of grapes the Israelites cut off there. 25 At the end of forty days(D) they returned from exploring the land.(E)
Report on the Exploration
26 They came back to Moses and Aaron and the whole Israelite community at Kadesh(F) in the Desert of Paran.(G) There they reported to them(H) and to the whole assembly and showed them the fruit of the land.(I) 27 They gave Moses this account: “We went into the land to which you sent us, and it does flow with milk and honey!(J) Here is its fruit.(K) 28 But the people who live there are powerful, and the cities are fortified and very large.(L) We even saw descendants of Anak(M) there.(N)

Numbers 13:23-28
King James Version
23 And they came unto the brook of Eshcol, and cut down from thence a branch with one cluster of grapes, and they bare it between two upon a staff; and they brought of the pomegranates, and of the figs.
24 The place was called the brook Eshcol, because of the cluster of grapes which the children of Israel cut down from thence.
25 And they returned from searching of the land after forty days.
26 And they went and came to Moses, and to Aaron, and to all the congregation of the children of Israel, unto the wilderness of Paran, to Kadesh; and brought back word unto them, and unto all the congregation, and shewed them the fruit of the land.
27 And they told him, and said, We came unto the land whither thou sentest us, and surely it floweth with milk and honey; and this is the fruit of it.
28 Nevertheless the people be strong that dwell in the land, and the cities are walled, and very great: and moreover we saw the children of Anak there.
