12 Then Joshua said to Reuben, and Gad, and to the half of the tribe of Manasses,
13 Remember what Moses the servant of the Lord commanded you saying; The Lord your God hath given you rest, and hath given you this land.
14 Let your wives, and your children, and your cattle abide in the land which he hath given you; but you, all your able bodied men, well equipt, shall cross over before your brethren, and assist them;
15 until the Lord our God shall give your brethren rest, as well as you; and until they possess the land which the Lord our God giveth them. Then you shall return, every one to his possession, which Moses gave you on the east side of the Jordan.
16 Thereupon they answered and said to Joshua, All that thou commandest we will do. And wherever thou sendest us we will go.
17 As we have hearkened to Moses in all things, so will we hearken to thee. Let but the Lord our God be with thee, as he was with Moses,
18 and whosoever shall disobey thee, and not hearken to all thy commands which thou shalt give him let him be put to death. But be thou strong and courageous.
