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. 13 (E)The rest of Gilead, and all Bashan, the kingdom of Og, I gave to half the tribe of Manasseh. (All the region of Argob, with all Bashan, was called the land of the [a]giants. 14 (F)Jair the son of Manasseh took all the region of Argob, (G)as far as the border of the Geshurites and the Maachathites, and (H)called Bashan after his own name, [b]Havoth Jair, to this day.)

15 “Also I gave (I)Gilead to Machir. 16 And to the Reubenites (J)and the Gadites I gave from Gilead as far as the River Arnon, the middle of the river as the border, as far as the River Jabbok, (K)the border of the people of Ammon; 17 the plain also, with the Jordan as the border, from Chinnereth (L)as far as the east side of the Sea of the Arabah (M)(the Salt Sea), below the slopes of Pisgah.

39 And the children of (L)Machir the son of Manasseh went to Gilead and took it, and [a]dispossessed the Amorites who were in it. 40 So Moses (M)gave Gilead to Machir the son of Manasseh, and he dwelt in it. 41 Also (N)Jair the son of Manasseh went and took its small towns, and called them (O)Havoth Jair.[b] 42 Then Nobah went and took Kenath and its villages, and he called it Nobah, after his own name.
