Numbers 32:1-5

LEB(i) 1 The descendants* of Reuben and the descendants* of Gad had a very large number of livestock. And they saw the land of Jazer and the land of Gilead, and behold it was a place for livestock. 2 The descendants* of Gad and the descendants* of Reuben came, and they said to Moses and to Eleazar the priest and to the leaders of the community, saying, 3 "Ataroth, Dibon, Jazer, Nimrah, Heshbon, Elealeh, Sebam, Nebo, and Beon, 4 the land that Yahweh struck before the community of Israel, is a land of livestock, and your servants have livestock." 5 They said, "If we have found favor in your sight,* let this land be given to your servants as property; do not lead us across the Jordan."
