29 telling them, “If the descendants of Gad and descendants of Reuben cross over the Jordan River with you, that is, all of their soldiers who’ve been equipped for battle in the LORD’s presence, so that the land is subjugated right before your eyes, then you are to give them the land of Gilead as their possession.
30 But if the armed men don’t cross over with you, then they won’t have any possession in the land of Canaan.”
31 “We’ll do just what the LORD told your servants,” the descendants of Gad and the descendants of Reuben responded. 32 “We are to cross over in battle array in the LORD’s presence into the land of Canaan, and afterwards the possession of our inheritance will be on this side of the Jordan River.”
33 So Moses gave to the descendants of Gad, to the descendants of Reuben, and to the half-tribe of Joseph’s son Manasseh the kingdom of Sihon, the king of the Amorites, and the kingdom of Og, the king of Bashan, the whole land with its cities, and even the territories surrounding it.
34Gad and Reuben Rebuild Their CitiesThe descendants of Gad rebuilt Dibon, Ataroth, Aroer,
35 Atrothshophan, Jazer, Jogbehah,
36 Beth-nimrah, and Beth-haran as fortified cities with corrals for sheep.
37 The descendants of Reuben rebuilt Heshbon, Elealeh, Kiriathaim,
38 Nebo, Baal-meon (after having changed their names), and Sibmah. The cities that they rebuilt were renamed.
39 The descendants of Manasseh’s son Machir attacked Gilead and then captured and dispossessed the Amorites who were there.
40 That’s why Moses gave Gilead to Manasseh’s son Machir, who lived there at the time.
41 Manasseh’s son Jair captured their towns and renamed them Havvoth-jair.
42 Nobah captured Kenath and its towns and renamed it Nobah after himself.
31 “We’ll do just what the LORD told your servants,” the descendants of Gad and the descendants of Reuben responded. 32 “We are to cross over in battle array in the LORD’s presence into the land of Canaan, and afterwards the possession of our inheritance will be on this side of the Jordan River.”
33 So Moses gave to the descendants of Gad, to the descendants of Reuben, and to the half-tribe of Joseph’s son Manasseh the kingdom of Sihon, the king of the Amorites, and the kingdom of Og, the king of Bashan, the whole land with its cities, and even the territories surrounding it.
