Joshua 22:25-27

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

²⁵ For the Lord has made the Jordan a boundary between us and you, you Reubenites and Gadites; you have no part in the Lord. So your children might make our children cease from fearing the Lord.

²⁶ So we said, Let us now prepare to build us an altar, not for burnt offering nor for sacrifice,

²⁷ But to be a witness between us and you and between the generations after us, that we will perform the service of the Lord before Him with our burnt offerings and sacrifices and peace offerings; lest your children say to our children in time to come, You have no portion in the Lord.
