Deuteronomy 1:21-23

Darby Translation

²¹ Behold, Jehovah thy God hath set the land before thee: go up, take possession, as Jehovah the God of thy fathers hath said unto thee; fear not, neither be dismayed.

²² And ye came near to me all of you, and said, We will send men before us, who shall examine the land for us, and bring us word again of the way by which we must go up, and of the cities to which we shall come.

²³ And the matter was good in mine eyes; and I took twelve men of you, one man for a tribe.
