Division of the Land East of the Jordan

⁸ The other half of Manasseh,^[a] the Reubenites and the Gadites had received the inheritance that Moses had given them east of the Jordan, as he, the servant of the Lord, had assigned^(A) it to them.^(B)

⁶ Moses, the servant of the Lord, and the Israelites conquered them.^(A) And Moses the servant of the Lord gave their land to the Reubenites, the Gadites and the half-tribe of Manasseh to be their possession.^(B)

⁴ Now that the Lord your God has given them rest^(A) as he promised, return to your homes^(B) in the land that Moses the servant of the Lord gave you on the other side of the Jordan.^(C)

¹² The men of Reuben,^(A) Gad^(B) and the half-tribe of Manasseh^(C) crossed over, ready for battle, in front of the Israelites,^(D) as Moses had directed them.^(E)

Division of the Land

¹² Of the land that we took over at that time, I gave the Reubenites and the Gadites the territory north of Aroer^(A) by the Arnon Gorge, including half the hill country of Gilead, together with its towns. ¹³ The rest of Gilead and also all of Bashan, the kingdom of Og, I gave to the half-tribe of Manasseh.^(B) (The whole region of Argob in Bashan used to be known as a land of the Rephaites.^{(C) 14} Jair,^(D) a descendant of Manasseh, took the whole region of Argob as far as the border of the Geshurites and the Maakathites;^(E) it was named^(F) after him, so that to this day Bashan is called Havvoth Jair.^[a]) ¹⁵ And I gave Gilead to Makir.^{(G) 16} But to the Reubenites and the Gadites I gave the territory extending from Gilead down to the Arnon Gorge (the middle of the gorge being the border) and out to the Jabbok River,^(H) which is the border of the Ammonites. ¹⁷ Its western border was the Jordan in the Arabah,^(I) from Kinnereth^(J) to the Sea of the Arabah^(K) (that is, the Dead Sea^(L)), below the slopes of Pisgah.

³³ Then Moses gave to the Gadites,^(A) the Reubenites and the half-tribe of Manasseh^(B) son of Joseph the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites^(C) and the kingdom of Og king of Bashan^(D)—the whole land with its cities and the territory around them.^(E)

³⁴ The Gadites built up Dibon, Ataroth, Aroer,^{(F) 35} Atroth Shophan, Jazer,^(G) Jogbehah,^{(H) 36} Beth Nimrah^(I) and Beth Haran as fortified cities, and built pens for their flocks.^{(J) 37} And the Reubenites rebuilt Heshbon,^(K) Elealeh^(L) and Kiriathaim,^{(M) 38} as well as Nebo^(N) and Baal Meon (these names were changed) and Sibmah.^(O) They gave names to the cities they rebuilt.

³⁹ The descendants of Makir^(P) son of Manasseh went to Gilead,^(Q) captured it and drove out the Amorites^(R) who were there. ⁴⁰ So Moses gave Gilead to the Makirites,^(S) the descendants of Manasseh, and they settled there. ⁴¹ Jair,^(T) a descendant of Manasseh, captured their settlements and called them Havvoth Jair.^{[a](U) 42} And Nobah captured Kenath^(V) and its surrounding settlements and called it Nobah^(W) after himself.^(X)
