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

    19For we will not inherit with them on 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 do this thing, if ye will go armed before the Lord to war,

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

    22And 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.

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

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

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

    26Our little ones, our wives, our flocks, and all our cattle, shall be there in the cities of Gilead:

    27But thy servants will pass over, every man armed for war, before the Lord to battle, as my lord saith.

    28So 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:

    29And 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:

    30But if they will not pass over with you armed, they shall have possessions among you in the land of Canaan.

    31And the children of Gad and the children of Reuben answered, saying, As the Lord hath said unto thy servants, so will we do.

    32We will pass over armed before the Lord into the land of Canaan, that the possession of our inheritance on this side Jordan may be ours.

    33And Moses 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 in the coasts, even the cities of the country round about.

    7And when ye came unto this place, Sihon the king of Heshbon, and Og the king of Bashan, came out against us unto battle, and we smote them:

Selected passage

22:2And said unto them, Ye have kept all that Moses the servant of the Lord commanded you, and have obeyed my voice in all that I commanded you:

22:3Ye have not left your brethren these many days unto this day, but have kept the charge of the commandment of the Lord your God.

22:4And now the Lord your God hath given rest unto your brethren, as he promised them: therefore now return ye, and get you unto your tents, and unto the land of your possession, which Moses the servant of the Lord gave you on the other side Jordan.

22:5But take diligent heed to do the commandment and the law, which Moses the servant of the Lord charged you, to love the Lord your God, and to walk in all his ways, and to keep his commandments, and to cleave unto him, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul.

22:6So Joshua blessed them, and sent them away: and they went unto their tents.
