The Land East of the Jordan Divided^(A)

¹² “And this ^(B)land, which we possessed at that time, ^(C)from Aroer, which is by the River Arnon, and half the mountains of Gilead and ^(D)its cities, I gave to the Reubenites and the Gadites.

^36 (A)From Aroer, which is on the bank of the River Arnon, and from ^(B)the city that is in the ravine, as far as Gilead, there was not one city too strong for us; ^(C)the Lord our God delivered all to us.

³² We will cross over armed before the Lord into the land of Canaan, but the possession of our inheritance shall remain with us on this side of the Jordan.”

³³ So ^(A)Moses gave to the children of Gad, to the children of Reuben, and to half the tribe of Manasseh the son of Joseph, ^(B)the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites and the kingdom of Og king of Bashan, the land with its cities within the borders, the cities of the surrounding country. ³⁴ And the children of Gad built ^(C)Dibon and Ataroth and ^(D)Aroer, ³⁵ Atroth and Shophan and ^(E)Jazer and Jogbehah, ^36 (F)Beth Nimrah and Beth Haran, ^(G)fortified cities, and folds for sheep. ³⁷ And the children of Reuben built ^(H)Heshbon and Elealeh and Kirjathaim, ^38 (I)Nebo and ^(J)Baal Meon ^(K)(their names being changed) and Shibmah; and they gave other names to the cities which they built.

³³ from the Jordan eastward: all the land of Gilead—Gad, Reuben, and Manasseh—from ^(A)Aroer, which is by the River Arnon, including ^(B)Gilead and Bashan.

The Land Divided East of the Jordan

⁸ With the other half-tribe the Reubenites and the Gadites received their inheritance, ^(A)which Moses had given them, ^(B)beyond the Jordan eastward, as Moses the servant of the Lord had given them: ⁹ from Aroer which is on the bank of the River Arnon, and the town that is in the midst of the ravine, ^(C)and all the plain of Medeba as far as Dibon; ^10 (D)all the cities of Sihon king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon, as far as the border of the children of Ammon; ^11 (E)Gilead, and the border of the Geshurites and Maachathites, all Mount Hermon, and all Bashan as far as Salcah; ¹² all the kingdom of Og in Bashan, who reigned in Ashtaroth and Edrei, who remained of ^(F)the remnant of the giants; ^(G)for Moses had ^[a]defeated and ^[b]cast out these.

¹³ Nevertheless the children of Israel ^(H)did not drive out the Geshurites or the Maachathites, but the Geshurites and the Maachathites dwell among the Israelites until this day.

^14 (I)Only to the tribe of Levi he had given ^[c]no inheritance; the sacrifices of the Lord God of Israel made by fire are their inheritance, ^(J)as He said to them.

The Land of Reuben

^15 (K)And Moses had given to the tribe of the children of Reuben an inheritance according to their families. ¹⁶ Their territory was ^(L)from Aroer, which is on the bank of the River Arnon, ^(M)and the city that is in the midst of the ravine, ^(N)and all the plain by Medeba; ^17 (O)Heshbon and all its cities that are in the plain: Dibon, Bamoth Baal, Beth Baal Meon, ^18 (P)Jahaza, Kedemoth, Mephaath, ^19 (Q)Kirjathaim, ^(R)Sibmah, Zereth Shahar on the mountain of the valley, ²⁰ Beth Peor, ^(S)the slopes of Pisgah, and Beth Jeshimoth— ^21 (T)all the cities of the plain and all the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon, ^(U)whom Moses had struck ^(V)with the princes of Midian: Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba, who were princes of Sihon dwelling in the country. ²² The children of Israel also killed with the sword ^(W)Balaam the son of Beor, the ^[d]soothsayer, among those who were killed by them. ²³ And the border of the children of Reuben was the bank of the Jordan. This was the inheritance of the children of Reuben according to their families, the cities and their villages.

The Land of Gad

^24 (X)Moses also had given an inheritance to the tribe of Gad, to the children of Gad according to their families. ^25 (Y)Their territory was Jazer, and all the cities of Gilead, ^(Z)and half the land of the Ammonites as far as Aroer, which is before ^(AA)Rabbah, ²⁶ and from Heshbon to Ramath Mizpah and Betonim, and from Mahanaim to the border of Debir, ²⁷ and in the valley ^(AB)Beth Haram, Beth Nimrah, ^(AC)Succoth, and Zaphon, the rest of the kingdom of Sihon king of Heshbon, with the Jordan as its border, as far as the edge ^(AD)of the ^[e]Sea of Chinnereth, on the other side of the Jordan eastward. ²⁸ This is the inheritance of the children of Gad according to their families, the cities and their villages.

² One king was ^(A)Sihon king of the Amorites, who dwelt in Heshbon and ruled half of Gilead, from Aroer, which is on the bank of the River Arnon, from the middle of that river, even as far as the River Jabbok, which is the border of the Ammonites, ³ and ^(B)the eastern Jordan plain from the ^[a]Sea of Chinneroth as far as the ^[b]Sea of the Arabah (the Salt Sea), ^(C)the road to Beth Jeshimoth, and ^[c]southward below ^(D)the^[d] slopes of Pisgah. ⁴ The other king was ^(E)Og king of Bashan and his territory, who was of ^(F)the remnant of the giants, ^(G)who dwelt at Ashtaroth and at Edrei, ⁵ and reigned over ^(H)Mount Hermon, ^(I)over Salcah, over all Bashan, ^(J)as far as the border of the Geshurites and the Maachathites, and over half of Gilead to the border of Sihon king of Heshbon.

^6 (K)These Moses the servant of the Lord and the children of Israel had conquered; and ^(L)Moses the servant of the Lord had given it as a possession to the Reubenites, the Gadites, and half the tribe of Manasseh.

^48 (A)from Aroer, which is on the bank of the River Arnon, even to Mount ^[a]Sion (that is, ^(B)Hermon),
