Deuteronomy 1:22

And ye came near unto me every one of you, and said, We will send men before us, and they shall search us out the land, and bring us word again by what way we must go up, and into what cities we shall come.

And ye came near {H7126} unto me every one of you, and said {H559}, We will send {H7971} men {H582} before {H6440} us, and they shall search us out {H2658} the land {H776}, and bring {H7725} us word {H1697} again {H7725} by what way {H1870} we must go up {H5927}, and into what cities {H5892} we shall come {H935}.

"You approached me, every one of you, and said, 'Let's send men ahead of us to explore the country for us and bring back word concerning what route we should use in going up and what the cities we will encounter are like.'

Then all of you approached me and said, “Let us send men ahead of us to search out the land and bring us word of what route to follow and which cities to enter.”

And ye came near unto me every one of you, and said, Let us send men before us, that they may search the land for us, and bring us word again of the way by which we must go up, and the cities unto which we shall come.
