Numbers 13:1 - 13:20

13:1 Spies Sent to Spy Out the Land of Canaan And Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
13:2 “Send for yourself men, and let them explore the land of Canaan, which I am about to give to the Israelites; from each tribe of his father send one man, everyone a leader among them.”
13:3 So Moses sent them from the desert of Paran on the command of Yahweh; all of the men were leaders of the Israelites.
13:4 And these are their names: from the tribe of Reuben, Shammua son of Zaccur;
13:5 from the tribe of Simeon, Shaphat son of Hori;
13:6 from the tribe of Judah, Caleb son of Jephunneh;
13:7 from the tribe of Issachar, Igal son of Joseph;
13:8 from the tribe of Ephraim, Hoshea son of Nun;
13:9 from the tribe of Benjamin, Palti son of Raphu;
13:10 from the tribe of Zebulun, Gaddiel son of Sodi;
13:11 from the tribe of Joseph, from the tribe of Manasseh, Gaddi son of Susi;
13:12 from the tribe of Dan, Ammiel son of Gemalli;
13:13 from the tribe of Asher, Sethur son of Michael;
13:14 from the tribe of Naphtali, Nahbi son of Vophsi;
13:15 from the tribe of Gad, Geuel son of Maki.
13:16 These are the names of the men whom Moses sent to explore the land. And Moses called Hoshea son of Nun Joshua.
13:17 Moses sent them to explore the land of Canaan, and he said to them, “Go up like this to the Negev, and go up into the hill country,
13:18 and you will see what the land is like and if the people who inhabit it are strong or weak, or whether they are few or many,
13:19 and whether the land that they are inhabiting is good or bad, and whether the cities they are inhabiting are camps or fortifications,
13:20 and whether the land is fertile or lean, and whether there are trees on it or not. You will show yourself courageous, and you will take some of the fruit of the land.” It was the time of first ripe grapes.

Gospel — Luke 11:29-54

LEB translation

Luke 11:29-54

11:29 The Sign of Jonah And as the crowds were increasing, he began to say, “This generation is an evil generation! It demands a sign, and no sign will be given to it except the sign of Jonah!
11:30 For just as Jonah became a sign to the Ninevites, so also the Son of Man will be to this generation.
11:31 The queen of the south will rise up at the judgment with the people of this generation and condemn them, because she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and behold, something greater than Solomon is here!
11:32 The people of Nineveh will stand up at the judgment with this generation and condemn it, because they repented at the proclamation of Jonah, and behold, something greater than Jonah is here!
11:33 Light and Darkness “No one after lighting a lamp puts it in a cellar or under a bushel basket, but on a lampstand, so that those who come in can see the light.
11:34 Your eye is the lamp of the body. When your eye is sincere, your whole body is full of light also. But when it is evil, your body is dark also.
11:35 Therefore pay careful attention that the light in you is not darkness!
11:36 If therefore your whole body is full of light, not having any part dark, it will be completely full of light, as when the lamp with its light gives light to you.”
11:37 Pharisees and Legal Experts Denounced And as he was speaking, a Pharisee asked him to have a meal with him, and he went in and reclined at table.
11:38 And the Pharisee, when he saw it, was astonished that he did not first wash before the meal.
11:39 But the Lord said to him, “Now you Pharisees cleanse the outside of the cup and of the dish, but your inside is full of greediness and wickedness.
11:40 Fools! Did not the one who made the outside make the inside also?
11:41 But give as charitable giving the things that are within, and behold, everything is clean for you.
11:42 “But woe to you, Pharisees, because you pay a tenth of mint and rue and every garden herb, and neglect justice and love for God! But it was necessary to do these things without neglecting those things also.
11:43 Woe to you, Pharisees, because you love the best seat in the synagogues and the greetings in the marketplaces!
11:44 Woe to you, because you are like unmarked graves, and the people who walk over them do not know it!
11:45 And one of the legal experts answered and said to him, “Teacher, when you say these things, you insult us also!”
11:46 So he said, “Woe to you also, legal experts, because you load people with burdens hard to bear, and you yourselves do not touch the burdens with one of your fingers!
11:47 Woe to you, because you build the tombs of the prophets, and your fathers killed them!
11:48 As a result you are witnesses, and you approve of the deeds of your fathers, because they killed them and you build their tombs!
11:49 For this reason also the wisdom of God said, ‘I will send to them prophets and apostles, and some of them they will kill and persecute,’
11:50 so that the blood of all the prophets that has been shed from the foundation of the world may be required of this generation,
11:51 from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zechariah, who perished between the altar and the temple building. Yes, I tell you, it will be required of this generation!
11:52 Woe to you, legal experts, because you have taken away the key to knowledge! You did not enter yourselves, and you hindered those who were entering!”
11:53 And when he departed from there, the scribes and the Pharisees began to be terribly hostile, and to question him closely about many things,
11:54 plotting to catch him with reference to something he might say.
