Numbers 32:7-9

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁷ Why will you discourage the heart of the people of Israel from going over into the land which the Lord has given them? ⁸ Thus did your fathers, when I sent them from Ka′desh-bar′nea to see the land. ⁹ For when they went up to the Valley of Eshcol, and saw the land, they discouraged the heart of the people of Israel from going into the land which the Lord had given them.
