Numbers 32
Now
the
children
of
Reuben
and
the
children
of
Gad
had
a
very
great
multitude
of
cattle:
and
when
they
saw
the
land
of
Jazer,
and
the
land
of
Gilead,
that,
behold,
the
place
was
a
place
for
cattle;
2 The
children
of
a
Gad
and
the
children
of
b
Reuben
came
and
spake
unto
Moses,
and
to
Eleazar
the
priest,
and
unto
the
princes
of
the
congregation,
saying,
3 Ataroth,
and
Dibon,
and
Jazer,
and
Nimrah,
and
Heshbon,
and
Elealeh,
and
Shebam,
and
Nebo,
and
Beon,
4 Even
the
country
which
the
Lord
smote
before
the
congregation
of
Israel,
is
a
land
for
cattle,
and
thy
servants
have
cattle:
5 Wherefore,
said
they,
if
we
have
found
grace
in
thy
sight,
let
this
land
be
given
unto
thy
servants
for
a
possession,
and
bring
us
not
over
Jordan.
6 And
Moses
said
unto
the
children
of
Gad
and
to
the
children
of
Reuben,
Shall
your
brethren
go
to
war,
and
shall
ye
sit
here?
7 And
wherefore
discourage
ye
the
heart
of
the
children
of
Israel
from
going
over
into
the
land
which
the
Lord
hath
given
them?
8 Thus
did
your
fathers,
when
I
sent
them
from
Kadesh-barnea
to
see
the
land.
9 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.
10 And
the
Lord's
anger
was
kindled
the
same
time,
and
he
sware,
saying,
11 Surely
none
of
the
men
that
came
up
out
of
Egypt,
from
twenty
years
old
and
upward,
shall
a
see
the
land
which
I
sware
unto
Abraham,
unto
Isaac,
and
unto
Jacob;
because
they
have
not
wholly
followed
me:
12 Save
a
Caleb
the
son
of
Jephunneh
the
Kenezite,
and
Joshua
the
son
of
Nun:
for
they
have
wholly
followed
the
Lord.
13 And
the
Lord's
anger
was
kindled
against
Israel,
and
he
made
them
wander
in
the
wilderness
forty
years,
until
all
the
generation,
that
had
done
evil
in
the
sight
of
the
Lord,
was
consumed.
14 And,
behold,
ye
are
risen
up
in
your
fathers'
stead,
an
increase
of
sinful
men,
to
augment
yet
the
fierce
anger
of
the
Lord
toward
Israel.
15 For
if
ye
turn
away
from
after
him,
he
will
yet
again
leave
them
in
the
wilderness;
and
ye
shall
destroy
all
this
people.
16 And
they
came
near
unto
him,
and
said,
We
will
build
sheepfolds
here
for
our
cattle,
and
cities
for
our
little
ones:
17 But
we
ourselves
will
go
ready
armed
before
the
children
of
Israel,
until
we
have
brought
them
unto
their
place:
and
our
little
ones
shall
dwell
in
the
fenced
cities
because
of
the
inhabitants
of
the
land.
18 We
will
not
return
unto
our
houses,
until
the
children
of
Israel
have
inherited
every
man
his
a
inheritance.
19 For
we
will
not
inherit
with
them
on
a
yonder
side
Jordan,
or
forward;
because
our
inheritance
is
fallen
to
us
on
this
side
Jordan
eastward.
20 And
Moses
said
unto
them,
If
ye
will
a
do
this
thing,
if
ye
will
go
armed
before
the
Lord
to
war,
21 And
will
go
all
of
you
armed
over
Jordan
before
the
Lord,
until
he
hath
driven
out
his
enemies
from
before
him,
22 And
the
land
be
subdued
before
the
Lord:
then
afterward
ye
shall
return,
and
be
guiltless
before
the
Lord,
and
before
Israel;
and
this
land
shall
be
your
possession
before
the
Lord.
23 But
if
ye
will
not
do
so,
behold,
ye
have
sinned
against
the
Lord:
and
be
sure
your
sin
will
find
you
out.
24 Build
you
cities
for
your
little
ones,
and
folds
for
your
sheep;
and
do
that
which
hath
proceeded
out
of
your
mouth.
25 And
the
children
of
Gad
and
the
children
of
Reuben
spake
unto
Moses,
saying,
Thy
servants
will
do
as
my
lord
commandeth.
26 Our
little
ones,
our
wives,
our
flocks,
and
all
our
cattle,
shall
be
there
in
the
cities
of
Gilead:
27 But
thy
servants
will
pass
over,
every
man
armed
for
war,
before
the
Lord
to
battle,
as
my
lord
saith.
28 So
concerning
them
Moses
commanded
Eleazar
the
priest,
and
Joshua
the
son
of
Nun,
and
the
chief
fathers
of
the
tribes
of
the
children
of
Israel:
29 And
Moses
said
unto
them,
If
the
children
of
Gad
and
the
children
of
Reuben
will
pass
with
you
over
Jordan,
every
man
armed
to
battle,
before
the
Lord,
and
the
land
shall
be
subdued
before
you;
then
ye
shall
give
them
the
land
of
Gilead
for
a
possession:
30 But
if
they
will
not
pass
over
with
you
armed,
they
shall
have
possessions
among
you
in
the
land
of
Canaan.
31 And
the
children
of
Gad
and
the
children
of
Reuben
answered,
saying,
As
the
Lord
hath
said
unto
thy
servants,
so
will
we
do.
32 We
will
pass
over
armed
before
the
Lord
into
the
land
of
Canaan,
that
the
possession
of
our
a
inheritance
on
this
side
Jordan
may
be
ours.
33 And
Moses
a
gave
unto
them,
even
to
the
children
of
Gad,
and
to
the
children
of
Reuben,
and
unto
half
the
tribe
of
Manasseh
the
son
of
Joseph,
the
kingdom
of
Sihon
king
of
the
Amorites,
and
the
kingdom
of
Og
king
of
Bashan,
the
land,
with
the
cities
thereof
b
in
the
coasts,
even
the
cities
of
the
country
round
about.
34 And
the
children
of
Gad
a
built
Dibon,
and
Ataroth,
and
Aroer,
35 And
Atroth,
Shophan,
and
Jaazer,
and
Jogbehah,
36 And
Beth-nimrah,
and
Beth-haran,
a
fenced
cities:
and
folds
for
sheep.
37 And
the
children
of
Reuben
built
Heshbon,
and
Elealeh,
and
Kirjathaim,
38 And
Nebo,
and
Baal-meon,
(their
names
being
changed,)
and
Shibmah:
and
gave
other
names
unto
the
cities
which
they
builded.
39 And
the
children
of
a
Machir
the
son
of
b
Manasseh
went
to
Gilead,
and
took
it,
and
dispossessed
the
Amorite
which
was
in
it.
40 And
Moses
gave
a
Gilead
unto
Machir
the
son
of
Manasseh;
and
he
dwelt
therein.
41 And
Jair
the
son
of
Manasseh
went
and
took
the
small
a
towns
thereof,
and
called
them
Havoth-jair.
42 And
Nobah
went
and
took
Kenath,
and
the
villages
thereof,
and
called
it
Nobah,
after
his
own
name.
