For when they went up unto the valley of Eshcol, and saw the land, they discouraged the heart of the children of Israel, that they should not go into the land which the LORD had given them.

Verse 9 is found in chapter 32 of Numbers. Reuben and Gad possess large quantities of livestock and observe that the lands of Jazer and Gilead are suitable for their animals. They request to settle there before crossing the Jordan. Moses initially interprets the request as a repetition of the spies’ failure because he fears these tribes will again discourage the rest of the people. The central concern is national solidarity during the conquest.

und da sie hinaufgekommen waren bis an den Bach Eskol und sahen das Land, machten sie das Herz der Kinder Israel abwendig, daß sie nicht in das Land wollten, das ihnen der HERR geben wollte.
Que subieron hasta la arroyada de Escol, y después que vieron la tierra, preocuparon el ánimo de los hijos de Israel, para que no viniesen a la tierra que Jehová les había dado.
Ils montèrent jusqu'à la vallée d'Eschcol, et, après avoir examiné le pays, ils découragèrent les enfants d'Israël d'aller dans le pays que l'Eternel leur donnait.
Perciocchè essi salirono fino alla Valle di Escol, e, dopo ch’ebbero veduto il paese, renderono fiacco il cuor de’ figliuoli d’Israele, per non entrar nel paese che il Signore avea loro donato.
Chegando eles até ao vale de Escol, e vendo esta terra, desencorajaram o coração dos filhos de Israel, para que não entrassem na terra que o SENHOR lhes tinha dado.
他們上到 以實各谷 ,窺探了那地之後,竟然使 以色列 人灰心,不願進入耶和華所賜給他們的地。
