Numbers 32:18-33
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
18 We will not return to our homes until all the Israelites have obtained their inheritance.(A) 19 We will not inherit with them on the other side of the Jordan and beyond, because our inheritance has come to us on this side of the Jordan to the east.”(B)
20 So Moses said to them, “If you do this—if you take up arms to go before the Lord for the war(C) 21 and all those of you who bear arms cross the Jordan before the Lord, until he has driven out his enemies from before him 22 and the land is subdued before the Lord—then after that you may return and be free of obligation to the Lord and to Israel, and this land shall be your possession before the Lord.(D) 23 But if you do not do this, you have sinned against the Lord, and be sure your sin will find you out. 24 Build towns for your little ones and folds for your flocks, but do what you have promised.”(E)
25 Then the Gadites and the Reubenites said to Moses, “Your servants will do as my lord commands. 26 Our little ones, our wives, our flocks, and all our livestock shall remain there in the towns of Gilead,(F) 27 but your servants will cross over, everyone armed for war, to do battle for the Lord, just as my lord orders.”(G)
28 So Moses gave command concerning them to Eleazar the priest, to Joshua son of Nun, and to the heads of the ancestral houses of the Israelite tribes.(H) 29 And Moses said to them, “If the Gadites and the Reubenites, everyone armed for battle before the Lord, will cross over the Jordan with you and the land shall be subdued before you, then you shall give them the land of Gilead for a possession,(I) 30 but if they will not cross over with you armed, they shall have possessions among you in the land of Canaan.” 31 The Gadites and the Reubenites answered, saying, “As the Lord has spoken to your servants, so we will do. 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[a] the Jordan.”
33 Moses gave to them—to the Gadites and to the Reubenites and to the half-tribe of Manasseh son of Joseph—the kingdom of King Sihon of the Amorites and the kingdom of King Og of Bashan, the land and its towns, with the territories of the surrounding towns.(J)

18 We will not return to our homes until each of the Israelites has received their inheritance.(A) 19 We will not receive any inheritance with them on the other side of the Jordan, because our inheritance(B) has come to us on the east side of the Jordan.”(C)
20 Then Moses said to them, “If you will do this—if you will arm yourselves before the Lord for battle(D) 21 and if all of you who are armed cross over the Jordan before the Lord until he has driven his enemies out before him(E)— 22 then when the land is subdued before the Lord, you may return(F) and be free from your obligation to the Lord and to Israel. And this land will be your possession(G) before the Lord.(H)
23 “But if you fail to do this, you will be sinning against the Lord; and you may be sure that your sin will find you out.(I) 24 Build cities for your women and children, and pens for your flocks,(J) but do what you have promised.(K)”
25 The Gadites and Reubenites said to Moses, “We your servants will do as our lord commands.(L) 26 Our children and wives, our flocks and herds will remain here in the cities of Gilead.(M) 27 But your servants, every man who is armed for battle, will cross over to fight(N) before the Lord, just as our lord says.”
28 Then Moses gave orders about them(O) to Eleazar the priest and Joshua son of Nun(P) and to the family heads of the Israelite tribes.(Q) 29 He said to them, “If the Gadites and Reubenites, every man armed for battle, cross over the Jordan with you before the Lord, then when the land is subdued before you,(R) you must give them the land of Gilead as their possession.(S) 30 But if they do not cross over(T) with you armed, they must accept their possession with you in Canaan.(U)”
31 The Gadites and Reubenites answered, “Your servants will do what the Lord has said.(V) 32 We will cross over before the Lord into Canaan armed,(W) but the property we inherit will be on this side of the Jordan.(X)”
33 Then Moses gave to the Gadites,(Y) the Reubenites and the half-tribe of Manasseh(Z) son of Joseph the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites(AA) and the kingdom of Og king of Bashan(AB)—the whole land with its cities and the territory around them.(AC)
