Joshua 22:21-25

21Then the sons of Reuben, the sons of Gad, and the half-tribe of Manasseh answered and spoke to the heads of the 1families of Israel. 22“The 2Mighty One, God, the Lord, the Mighty One, God, the Lord! 3He knows, and may Israel itself know. If it was in rebellion, or if in an unfaithful act against the Lord, do not save us this day! 23If we have built us an altar to turn away from following the Lord, or if to 4offer a burnt offering or grain offering on it, or if to offer sacrifices of peace offerings on it, may the Lord Himself 5demand it. 24But truly we have done this out of concern, 6for a reason, saying, ‘In time to come your sons may say to our 7sons, “What have you to do with the Lord, the God of Israel? 25For the Lord has made the Jordan a border between us and you, you sons of Reuben and sons of Gad; you have no portion in the Lord.” So your sons may make our sons stop fearing the Lord.’
