Numbers 13:32

And they brought up an evil report of the land which they had searched unto the children of Israel, saying, The land, through which we have gone to search it, [is] a land that eateth up the inhabitants thereof; and all the people that we saw in it [are] men of a great stature.

And they brought up {H3318} an evil report {H1681} of the land {H776} which they had searched {H8446} unto the children {H1121} of Israel {H3478}, saying {H559}, The land {H776}, through which we have gone {H5674} to search {H8446} it, is a land {H776} that eateth up {H398} the inhabitants {H3427} thereof; and all the people {H5971} that we saw {H7200} in it {H8432} are men {H582} of a great stature {H4060}.

and they spread a negative report about the land they had reconnoitered for the people of Isra'el by saying, "The land we passed through in order to spy it out is a land that devours its inhabitants. All the people we saw there were giant!

So they gave the Israelites a bad report about the land that they had spied out: “The land we explored devours its inhabitants, and all the people we saw there are great in stature.

And they brought up an evil report of the land which they had spied out unto the children of Israel, saying, The land, through which we have gone to spy it out, is a land that eateth up the inhabitants thereof; and all the people that we saw in it are men of great stature.
