32:15 For if ye turn away from after him, he will yet again leave them in the wilderness; and ye shall destroy all this people.

 32:16 And they came near unto him, and said, We will build sheepfolds here for our cattle, and cities for our little ones:

 32:17 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.

 32:18 We will not return unto our houses, until the children of Israel have inherited every man his inheritance.

 32:19 For we will not inherit with them on yonder side Jordan, or forward; because our inheritance is fallen to us on this side Jordan eastward.

 32:20 And Moses said unto them, If ye will do this thing, if ye will go armed before the Lord to war,

 32:21 And will go all of you armed over Jordan before the Lord, until he hath driven out his enemies from before him,

 32:22 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.

 32:23 But if ye will not do so, behold, ye have sinned against the Lord: and be sure your sin will find you out.

 32:24 Build you cities for your little ones, and folds for your sheep; and do that which hath proceeded out of your mouth.

 32:25 And the children of Gad and the children of Reuben spake unto Moses, saying, Thy servants will do as my lord commandeth.
