Numbers 13:31–33: "Ah, no," the faithless spies reply

"Ah, no," the faithless spies reply.
Who search'd with us the happy land,
"We cannot scale the forts so high,
Or 'gainst the sons of Anak stand:
Stronger than us our foes we deem." —
But are they stronger than your Lord?
Giants are grasshoppers to Him,
To all who venture on His word.
