NET ©

What is going to happen to us? Our brothers have drained away our courage 1  by describing people who are more numerous 2  and taller than we are, and great cities whose defenses appear to be as high as heaven 3  itself! Moreover, they said they saw 4  Anakites 5  there.”

NIV ©

MSG ©

How can we go up? We're trapped in a dead end. Our brothers took all the wind out of our sails, telling us, 'The people are bigger and stronger than we are; their cities are huge, their defenses massive--we even saw Anakite giants there!'"

NET © Notes

tn Heb “have caused our hearts to melt.”

tn Heb “greater.” Many English versions understand this to refer to physical size or strength rather than numbers (cf. “stronger,” NAB, NIV, NRSV; “bigger,” NASB).

tn Or “as the sky.” The Hebrew term שָׁמַיִם (shamayim) may be translated “heaven(s)” or “sky” depending on the context.

tn Heb “we have seen.”

tn Heb “the sons of the Anakim.”

sn Anakites were giant people (Num 13:33; Deut 2:10, 21; 9:2) descended from a certain Anak whose own forefather Arba founded the city of Kiriath Arba, i.e., Hebron (Josh 21:11).
