Deuteronomy 3:12-17
New American Standard Bible
12 “So we took possession of this land at that time. From (A)Aroer, which is by the [a]Valley of Arnon, and half the hill country of (B)Gilead and its cities I gave to the Reubenites and to the Gadites. 13 The rest of Gilead and all Bashan, the kingdom of Og, I gave to the half-tribe of Manasseh, all the region of Argob. (As to all Bashan, it is called the land of Rephaim. 14 (C)Jair the son of Manasseh took all the region of Argob as far as the border of the Geshurites and the Maacathites, that is, Bashan, and named [b]it after his own name: [c]Havvoth-jair, as it is to this day.) 15 (D)To Machir I gave Gilead. 16 To the Reubenites and the Gadites I gave from Gilead even as far as the [d]Valley of Arnon, the middle of the [e]valley [f]as a border, and as far as the [g]river (E)Jabbok, the border of the sons of Ammon; 17 the Arabah also, with the Jordan [h]as a border, from [i](F)Chinnereth (G)even as far as the sea of the Arabah, (H)the Salt Sea, [j]at the foot of the slopes of Pisgah on the east.

Christian Standard Bible
12 “At that time we took possession of this land.(A) I gave to the Reubenites and Gadites the area extending from Aroer by the Arnon Valley, and half the hill country of Gilead along with its cities. 13 I gave to half the tribe of Manasseh the rest of Gilead and all Bashan, the kingdom of Og. The entire region of Argob, the whole territory of Bashan, used to be called the land of the Rephaim. 14 Jair, a descendant of Manasseh, took over the entire region of Argob as far as the border of the Geshurites and Maacathites. He called Bashan by his own name, Jair’s Villages,[a] as it is today. 15 I gave Gilead to Machir, 16 and I gave to the Reubenites and Gadites the area extending from Gilead to the Arnon Valley (the middle of the valley was the border) and up to the Jabbok River, the border of the Ammonites. 17 The Arabah and Jordan are also borders from Chinnereth[b] as far as the Sea of the Arabah, the Dead Sea, under the slopes of Pisgah on the east.(B)
