Numbers 14:4-9
New American Standard Bible
5Then Moses and Aaron fell on their faces in the presence of all the assembly of the congregation of the sons of Israel.
6And Joshua the son of Nun and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, of those who had spied out the land, tore their clothes;
7and they spoke to all the congregation of the sons of Israel, saying, 'The land which we passed through to spy out is an exceedingly good land.
8If the Lord is pleased with us, then He will bring us into this land and give it to us—a land which flows with milk and honey.
9Only do not rebel against the Lord; and do not fear the people of the land, for they will be our prey. Their protection is gone from them, and the Lord is with us; do not fear them.'
King James Version
5Then Moses and Aaron fell on their faces before all the assembly of the congregation of the children of Israel.
6And Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, which were of them that searched the land, rent their clothes:
7And they spake unto all the company of the children of Israel, saying, The land, which we passed through to search it, is an exceeding good land.
8If the Lord delight in us, then he will bring us into this land, and give it us; a land which floweth with milk and honey.
9Only rebel not ye against the Lord, neither fear ye the people of the land; for they are bread for us: their defence is departed from them, and the Lord is with us: fear them not.

5Then Moses and Aaron fell facedown in front of the whole assembly of the Israelite community.
6Joshua son of Nun and Caleb son of Jephunneh, who were among those who scouted out the land, tore their clothes
7and said to the entire Israelite community: "The land we passed through and explored is an extremely good land.
8If the Lord is pleased with us, he will bring us into this land, a land flowing with milk and honey, and give it to us.
9Only don’t rebel against the Lord, and don’t be afraid of the people of the land, for we will devour them. Their protection has been removed from them, and the Lord is with us. Don’t be afraid of them!"
New Living Translation
5Then Moses and Aaron fell face down on the ground before the whole community of Israel.
6Two of the men who had explored the land, Joshua son of Nun and Caleb son of Jephunneh, tore their clothing.
7They said to all the people of Israel, 'The land we traveled through and explored is a wonderful land!
8And if the Lord is pleased with us, he will bring us safely into that land and give it to us. It is a rich land flowing with milk and honey.
9Do not rebel against the Lord, and don’t be afraid of the people of the land. They are only helpless prey to us! They have no protection, but the Lord is with us! Don’t be afraid of them!'
