31 But the men who had gone with him said, “We can’t attack those people! They’re too strong for us!” 32 So they began to spread lies among the Israelites about the land they had explored. They said, “The land we explored is one that devours those who live there. All the people we saw there are very tall. 33 We saw Nephilim there. (The descendants of Anak are Nephilim.) We felt as small as grasshoppers, and that’s how we must have looked to them.”

31 (A)But the men who had gone up with him said, “We are not able to go up against the people, for they are stronger than we.” 32 And they (B)gave the children of Israel a bad report of the land which they had spied out, saying, “The land through which we have gone as spies is a land that devours its inhabitants, and (C)all the people whom we saw in it are men of great stature. 33 There we saw the [a]giants ((D)the descendants of Anak came from the giants); and we were (E)like[b] grasshoppers in our own sight, and so we were (F)in their sight.”
