18 Cheuvin lang gam umdan ijakai kholchilna ganei jun lang mihem um dol jong hinve chil unlang, hiche muna cheng ding chu mi ijat adol ding ham tijong hinkhol un, ati.
See the land, what it is; and the people who dwell therein, whether they are strong or weak, whether they are few or many;
19 Amaho chenna gamho chu apha ham, aseham akhosah dan u ijakai hinkhol un chule khopi umdan jong hinve chil un.
and 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;
20 Leiset chu thao putna ham ahilouleh gamgo apha lou ham? Hilai kom dunga chu thing phung tamtah umham? Thei phung thing phung aga hoi pen tah vetchil dia na hinpoh diu ahi.
and what the land is, whether it is fat or lean, 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.
21 Hichun achie tou un Zin gamthip apat akhol chil un Rebob kiti gei chu Leboh Hamath kom dung gei chu abonchan gakholsoh keiyun.

They 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 [Abode of slavery].)
23 Amahon Eschort phaicham ahin phah uchun lengpi thei boh khat ahin sat lhauvin amani kikah ah ahin polut un chuleh kolbu thei jong Olive phung jong jaonan ahinpo lhonne.
They 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.
24 Hiche lai mun chu Eschort phaicham aki tin ahi. Ajeh chu Israel mihon hikomma chu lengpi thei avat u ahi.
That place was called the valley of Eshcol, because of the cluster which the children of Israel [God prevails] cut down from there.
25 Ni somli jen gam le go kholchih na anei jou phat un Pasal ho chu ahung kinung le gam tauve.

27 Hichun amahon Mose jah hiti hin asei un, keiho nei nganse nauva kaga che un gam leiset vedin, hiche gam hi khoiju le bongnoi lonna chule hichengse hi gamsunga gasoh ho ahi.
They 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.
28 Ahinlah hilai gamma umho chu thil bolthei na hangsan tah ahiuvin, khopi ho jong chu hoitah in aveng tup un amel’u jong alen theiyin hikomma chun Anak mite a khosa uvin ahi.

Caleb stilled the people before Moses [Drawn out], and said, “Let us go up at once, and possess it; for we are well able to overcome it!”
31 Amavang Caleb toh gam kholle a che ho lah mi phabep loi chu anom pouvin, Anak mite ho chu eiho sanga hat jo ahiuvin, eiho Amaho chu ima ilo theilou diu ahi tin asei uve.
But the men who went up with him said, “We are not able to go up against the people; for they are stronger than we.”
32 Hichun Amaho lah’a mi phabep loi chun hiche thupha lou hi Israel mite lah’a ahin sei phong uvin ahi. Gam leiset keiman ka khol chil jou pon nang ho gam neite ahat theiyun Amahon hetman louva eisuhgam jeng theiyu ahi, ati.
They brought up an evil report of the land which they had spied out to the children of Israel [God prevails], 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.
33 Keihon Anak mite chu kamu uvin amaho toh teding in eiho hi khongbai tabang bep ihiuvin Anak mite jeng in jong hitia chu eigellu ahiye.
There 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.”
