"and whether the land they live in is good or bad, and whether the cities they inhabit are like camps or fortified cities,"
— Numbers 13:19, NET Bible
“And what the land is that they dwell in, whether it be good or bad; and what cities they be that they dwell in, whether in tents, or in strong holds;”
“and what the land is that they dwell in, whether it is good or bad; and what cities they are that they dwell in, whether in camps, or in strongholds; ”
“and what the land is that they dwell in, whether it is good or bad; and what cities they are that they dwell in, whether in camps, or in strongholds;”
“View the land, of what sort it is, and the people that are the inhabitants thereof, whether they be strong or weak: few in number or many:”
“And what sort of land they are living in, if it is good or bad; and what their living-places are, tent-circles or walled towns;”
“And what the land is that they dwell in, whether it be good or bad; and what cities they be that they dwell in, whether in tents, or in strong holds;”

The Spies’ Instructions When Moses sent them to investigate the land of Canaan, he told them,“Go up through the Negev, and then go up into the hill country
and see what the land is like, and whether the people who live in it are strong or weak, few or many,
and whether the land they live in is good or bad, and whether the cities they inhabit are like camps or fortified cities,
and whether the land is rich or poor, and whether or not there are forests in it. And be brave, and bring back some of the fruit of the land.” Now it was the time of year for the first ripe grapes.
