Joshua 22:25-27

International Standard Version

²⁵ The Lord has established the Jordan River to be a territorial border between us and you. Descendants of Reuben and descendants of Gad have no allotment from the Lord.” So your descendants may cause our descendants to stop fearing the Lord.’

²⁶ “That’s why we said, ‘Let’s build an altar for ourselves, not for burnt offerings or sacrifice, ²⁷ but instead it will serve as a reminder^[a] between us and you and between our generations after us, that we are to serve the Lord with our burnt offerings, sacrifices, and peace offerings. That way your descendants will not say to our descendants in the future, “You have no allotment from the Lord.”’
