Joshua 22:1-9
11Then Joshua summoned the Reubenites and the Gadites and the half-tribe of Manasseh, 2and said to them, “You have kept all that Moses the servant of the Lord commanded you, 2and have listened to my voice in all that I commanded you. 3You have not forsaken your brothers these many days to this day, but have kept the charge of the commandment of the Lord your God. 4And now 3the Lord your God has given rest to your brothers, as He spoke to them; therefore turn now and go to your tents, to the land of your possession, which Moses the servant of the Lord gave you beyond the Jordan. 5Only be very careful to observe the commandment and the law which Moses the servant of the Lord commanded you, to 4love the Lord your God and walk in all His ways and keep His commandments and hold fast to Him and serve Him 5with all your heart and with all your soul.” 6So Joshua 6blessed them and sent them away, and they went to their tents.
7Now 7to the one half-tribe of Manasseh Moses had given a possession in Bashan, but 8to the other half Joshua gave a possession among their brothers westward beyond the Jordan. So when Joshua sent them away to their tents, he blessed them, 8and said to 9them, “Return to your tents with great riches and with very much livestock, with silver, gold, bronze, iron, and with very many clothes; 10divide the spoil of your enemies with your brothers.” 9The sons of Reuben and the sons of Gad and the half-tribe of Manasseh returned home and departed from the sons of Israel at Shiloh which is in the land of Canaan, to go to the 11land of Gilead, to the land of their possession which they had possessed, according to the 12command of the Lord 13through Moses.
