Numbers 32:31-40

31The sons of Gad and the sons of Reuben answered, “As the Lord has said to your servants, so will we do.

32We will cross over armed before the Lord into the land of Canaan, so that the possession of our inheritance on [the east] side of the Jordan may be ours.”

33So Moses gave to them, to the sons of Gad and to the sons of Reuben and to the half-tribe of Manasseh the son of Joseph, the kingdom of Sihon, the king of the Amorites and the kingdom of Og, the king of Bashan, the land with its cities and territories, the cities of the surrounding land.

34The sons of Gad built Dibon, Ataroth, Aroer,

35Atroth-shophan, Jazer, Jogbehah,

36Beth-nimrah, and Beth-haran, fortified (walled) cities, and sheepfolds for sheep.

37The sons of Reuben built Heshbon, Elealeh, Kiriathaim,

38Nebo, and Baal-meon (their names being changed) and Sibmah; and they gave other names to the cities which they built.

39The sons of Machir the son of Manasseh went to Gilead and took it, and drove out the Amorites who were in it.

40So Moses gave Gilead to [the tribe of] Machir the son of Manasseh, and they settled in it.
