Joshua 22:15-17
1599 Geneva Bible
15 ¶ So they went unto the children of Reuben, and to the children of Gad, and to the half tribe of Manasseh, unto the land of Gilead, and spake with them, saying,
16 Thus saith [a]the whole Congregation of the Lord, What transgression is this that ye have transgressed against the God of Israel, to turn away this day from the Lord, in that ye have built you an altar for to rebel this day against the Lord?
17 Have we too little for the wickedness (A)of Peor, whereof we are not [b]cleansed unto this day, though a plague came upon the Congregation of the Lord?
