Numbers 32:20-32

20MosesH4872 repliedH559, “IfH518 you will doH6213 thisH2088—ifH518 you will arm yourselvesH2502 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 for battleH4421, 21and if every oneH3605 of your armed menH2502 crossesH5674 the JordanH3383 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, untilH5704 He has drivenH3423 His enemiesH341 out before HimH6440, 22then when the landH776 is subduedH3533 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, you may returnH7725 and beH1961 freeH5355 of obligation to the LORDH3068 and to IsraelH3478. And thisH2063 landH776 will belongH1961 to you as a possessionH272 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068. 23But ifH518 you do notH3808 doH6213 thisH3651, you will certainlyH2009 sinH2398 against the LORDH3068—and be assured thatH3045 your sinH2403 will find you outH4672. 24BuildH1129 citiesH5892 for your little onesH2945 and foldsH1448 for your flocksH6792, but doH6213 what you have promisedH3318H6310.”

25The GaditesH1121H1410 and ReubenitesH1121H7205 saidH559 toH413 MosesH4872H559, “Your servantsH5650 will doH6213 just asH834 our lordH113 commandsH6680. 26Our childrenH2945, our wivesH802, our livestockH4735, and allH3605 our animalsH929 will remainH1961 hereH8033 in the citiesH5892 of GileadH1568. 27But your servantsH5650 are equippedH2502 for warH6635, and every manH3605 will cross overH5674 to the battleH4421 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, just asH834 our lordH113 saysH1696.”

28So MosesH4872 gave ordersH6680 about them to EleazarH499 the priestH3548, to JoshuaH3091 sonH1121 of NunH5126, and to the familyH1 leadersH7218 of the tribesH4294 of IsraelH1121H3478. 29And MosesH4872 saidH559 to themH413, “IfH518 the GaditesH1121H1410 and ReubenitesH1121H7205 crossH5674 the JordanH3383 with youH854, with everyH3605 man armedH2502 for battleH4421 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, and the landH776 is subduedH3533 before youH6440, then you are to giveH5414 them the landH776 of GileadH1568 as a possessionH272. 30But ifH518 they do notH3808 arm themselvesH2502 and go acrossH5674 with youH854, then they must accept their possessionH270 among youH8432 in the landH776 of CanaanH3667.”

31The GaditesH1121H1410 and ReubenitesH1121H7205H559 repliedH6030, “AsH834 the LORDH3068 has spokenH1696 toH413 your servantsH5650, soH3651 we will doH6213. 32WeH5168 will cross overH5674 into the landH776 of CanaanH3667 armedH2502 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, thatH854 we may have our inheritanceH5159H272 on this sideH5676 of the JordanH3383.”
