H3091
Then Joshua
H7121
called
H7206
the Reubenites,
H1425
the Gadites,
H2677
and the
H4294
half-tribe
H4519
of Manasseh,
2
H559
and said
H8104
to them, "You have kept
H4872
all that Moses
H5650
the servant
H3068
of Yahweh
H6680
commanded
H8085
you, and have listened
H6963
to my voice
H6680
in all that I commanded you.
3
H5800
You have not left
H251
your brothers
H7227
these many
H3117
days
H3117
to this day,
H4931
but have performed
H4931
the duty
H4687
of the commandment
H3068
of Yahweh
H430
your God.
4
H3068
Now Yahweh
H430
your God
H5117
has given rest
H251
to your brothers,
H1696
as he spoke
H6437
to them. Therefore now return
H3212
and go
H168
to your tents,
H776
to the land
H272
of your possession,
H4872
which Moses
H5650
the servant
H3068
of Yahweh
H5414
gave
H5676
you beyond
H3383
the Jordan.
5
H3966
Only take diligent
H8104
heed
H6213
to do
H4687
the commandment
H8451
and the law
H4872
which Moses
H5650
the servant
H3068
of Yahweh
H6680
commanded
H157
you, to love
H3068
Yahweh
H430
your God,
H3212
to walk
H1870
in all his ways,
H8104
to keep
H4687
his commandments,
H1692
to hold fast
H5647
to him, and to serve
H3824
him with all your heart
H5315
and with all your soul."
6
H3091
So Joshua
H1288
blessed
H7971
them, and sent them away;
H3212
and they went
H168
to their tents.
7
H2677
Now to the one
H7626
half-tribe
H4519
of Manasseh
H4872
Moses
H5414
had given
H1316
inheritance in Bashan;
H2677
but to the other half
H5414
gave
H3091
Joshua
H5973
among
H251
their brothers
H5676
beyond
H3383
the Jordan
H3220
westward.
H3091
Moreover when Joshua
H7971
sent them away
H168
to their tents,
H1288
he blessed them,
8
H559
and spoke
H559
to them, saying,
H7725
"Return
H7227
with much
H5233
wealth
H168
to your tents,
H3966
with very
H7227
much
H4735
livestock,
H3701
with silver,
H2091
with gold,
H5178
with brass,
H1270
with iron,
H3966
and with very
H7235
much
H8008
clothing.
H2505
Divide
H7998
the spoil
H341
of your enemies
H251
with your brothers."

H1121
The children
H7205
of Reuben
H1121
and the children
H1410
of Gad
H2677
and the
H7626
half-tribe
H4519
of Manasseh
H7725
returned,
H3212
and departed
H1121
from the children
H3478
of Israel
H7887
out of Shiloh,
H776
which is in the land
H3667
of Canaan,
H3212
to go
H776
to the land
H1568
of Gilead,
H776
to the land
H272
of their possession,
H270
which they owned,
H6310
according to the commandment
H3068
of Yahweh
H3027
by
H4872
Moses.
10
H935
When they came
H3383
to the region about the Jordan,
H776
that is in the land
H3667
of Canaan,
H1121
the children
H7205
of Reuben
H1121
and the children
H1410
of Gad
H2677
and the
H7626
half-tribe
H4519
of Manasseh
H1129
built
H4196
there an altar
H3383
by the Jordan,
H1419
a great
H4196
altar
H4758
to
H4758
look at.
11
H1121
The children
H3478
of Israel
H8085
heard
H559
this, "Behold,
H1121
the children
H7205
of Reuben
H1121
and the children
H1410
of Gad
H2677
and the
H7626
half-tribe
H4519
of Manasseh
H1129
have built
H4196
an altar
H4136
in the forefront
H776
of the land
H3667
of Canaan,
H1552
in the region
H3383
about the Jordan,
H5676
on the side that pertains
H1121
to the children
H3478
of Israel."
12
H1121
When the children
H3478
of Israel
H8085
heard
H5712
of it, the whole congregation
H1121
of the children
H3478
of Israel
H6950
gathered themselves together
H7887
at Shiloh,
H5927
to go up
H6635
against them to war.
13
H1121
The children
H3478
of Israel
H7971
sent
H1121
to the children
H7205
of Reuben,
H1121
and to the children
H1410
of Gad,
H2677
and to the
H7626
half-tribe
H4519
of Manasseh,
H776
into the land
H1568
of Gilead,
H6372
Phinehas
H1121
the son
H499
of Eleazar
H3548
the priest,
14
H6235
and with him ten
H5387
princes,
H5387
one prince
H1
of a fathers'
H1004
house
H259
for each
H4294
of the tribes
H3478
of Israel;
H376
and they were everyone
H7218
of them head
H1
of their fathers'
H1004
houses
H505
among the thousands
H3478
of Israel.
15
H935
They came
H1121
to the children
H7205
of Reuben,
H1121
and to the children
H1410
of Gad,
H2677
and to the
H7626
half-tribe
H4519
of Manasseh,
H776
to the land
H1568
of Gilead,
H1696
and they spoke
H559
with them, saying,
16
H559
"Thus says
H5712
the whole congregation
H3068
of Yahweh,
H4604
‘What trespass
H4603
is this that you have committed
H430
against the God
H3478
of Israel,
H7725
to turn away
H3117
this day
H310
from following
H3068
Yahweh,
H1129
in that you have built
H4196
yourselves an altar,
H4775
to rebel
H3117
this day
H3068
against Yahweh?
17
H5771
Is the iniquity
H6465
of Peor
H4592
too little
H2891
for us, from which we have not cleansed
H3117
ourselves to this day,
H5063
although there came a plague
H5712
on the congregation
H3068
of Yahweh,
18
H7725
that you must turn away
H3117
this day
H310
from following
H3068
Yahweh?
H4775
It will be, since you rebel
H3117
today
H3068
against Yahweh,
H4279
that tomorrow
H7107
he will be angry
H5712
with the whole congregation
H3478
of Israel.
19
H389
However,
H776
if the land
H272
of your possession
H2931
is unclean,
H5674
then pass over
H776
to the land
H272
of the possession
H3068
of Yahweh,
H3068
in which Yahweh's
H4908
tabernacle
H7931
dwells,
H270
and take possession
H8432
among
H4775
us; but don't rebel
H3068
against Yahweh,
H408
nor
H4775
rebel
H1129
against us, in building
H4196
an altar
H1107
other
H4196
than the altar
H3068
of Yahweh
H430
our God.
20
H5912
Didn't Achan
H1121
the son
H2226
of Zerah
H4603
commit
H4604
a trespass
H2764
in the devoted thing,
H7110
and wrath
H1961
fell
H5712
on all the congregation
H3478
of Israel?
H376
That man
H1478
didn't perish
H259
alone
H5771
in his iniquity.'"
21
H1121
Then the children
H7205
of Reuben
H1121
and the children
H1410
of Gad
H2677
and the
H7626
half-tribe
H4519
of Manasseh
H6030
answered,
H1696
and spoke
H7218
to the heads
H505
of the thousands
H3478
of Israel,
22
H410
"The Mighty One, God,
H3068
Yahweh,
H430
H410
the Mighty One, God,
H3068
Yahweh,
H430
H3045
he knows;
H3478
and Israel
H3045
shall know:
H4777
if it was in rebellion,
H4604
or if in trespass
H3068
against Yahweh
H3467
(don't save
H3117
us this day),
23
H1129
that we have built
H4196
us an altar
H7725
to turn
H310
away from following
H3068
Yahweh;
H5927
or if to offer
H5930
burnt offering
H5930
or meal offering,
H6213
or if to offer
H8002
sacrifices of peace
H2077
offerings,
H3068
let Yahweh
H1245
himself require it.
24
H1674
"If we have not out of concern
H6213
done
H1697
this,
H559
and for a reason, saying,
H4279
‘In time to come
H1121
your children
H559
might speak
H1121
to our children,
H559
saying,
H3068
"What have you to do with Yahweh,
H430
the God
H3478
of Israel?
25
H3068
For Yahweh
H5414
has made
H3383
the Jordan
H1366
a border
H1121
between us and you, you children
H7205
of Reuben
H1121
and children
H1410
of Gad.
H2506
You have no portion
H3068
in Yahweh."'
H1121
So your children
H7673
might make
H1121
our children
H7673
cease
H1115
from
H3372
fearing
H3068
Yahweh.
26
H559
"Therefore we said,
H6213
‘Let's now prepare
H1129
to build
H4196
ourselves an altar,
H5930
not for burnt offering,
H2077
nor for sacrifice;
27
H5707
but it will be a witness
H1755
between us and you, and between our generations
H310
after
H5647
us, that we may perform
H5656
the service
H3068
of Yahweh
H6440
before
H5930
him with our burnt offerings,
H2077
with our sacrifices,
H8002
and with our peace offerings;'
H1121
that your children
H559
may not tell
H1121
our children
H4279
in time to come,
H2506
‘You have no portion
H3068
in Yahweh.'
28
H559
"Therefore we said,
H559
‘It shall be, when they tell
H1755
us or our generations
H4279
this in time to come,
H559
that we shall say,
H7200
"Behold
H8403
the pattern
H4196
of the altar
H3068
of Yahweh,
H1
which our fathers
H6213
made,
H5930
not for burnt offering,
H2077
nor for sacrifice;
H5707
but it is a witness between us and you."'
29
H2486
"Far be
H4775
it from us that we should rebel
H3068
against Yahweh,
H7725
and turn
H3117
away this day
H310
from following
H3068
Yahweh,
H1129
to build
H4196
an altar
H5930
for burnt offering,
H4503
for meal offering,
H2077
or for sacrifice,
H4196
besides the altar
H3068
of Yahweh
H430
our God
H6440
that is before
H4908
his tabernacle!"
30
H6372
When Phinehas
H3548
the priest,
H5387
and the princes
H5712
of the congregation,
H7218
even the heads
H505
of the thousands
H3478
of Israel
H8085
that were with him, heard
H1697
the words
H1121
that the children
H7205
of Reuben
H1121
and the children
H1410
of Gad
H1121
and the children
H4519
of Manasseh
H1696
spoke,
H3190
it pleased them well.
31
H6372
Phinehas
H1121
the son
H499
of Eleazar
H3548
the priest
H559
said
H1121
to the children
H7205
of Reuben,
H1121
to the children
H1410
of Gad,
H1121
and to the children
H4519
of Manasseh,
H3117
"Today
H3045
we know
H3068
that Yahweh
H8432
is in the midst
H4603
of us, because you have not committed
H4604
this trespass
H3068
against Yahweh.
H227
Now
H5337
you have delivered
H1121
the children
H3478
of Israel
H3027
out of the hand
H3068
of Yahweh."
32
H6372
Phinehas
H1121
the son
H499
of Eleazar
H3548
the priest,
H5387
and the princes,
H7725
returned
H1121
from the children
H7205
of Reuben,
H1121
and from the children
H1410
of Gad,
H776
out of the land
H1568
of Gilead,
H776
to the land
H3667
of Canaan,
H1121
to the children
H3478
of Israel,
H7725
and brought
H1697
them word
H7725
again.
33
H1697
The thing
H3190
pleased
H1121
the children
H3478
of Israel;
H1121
and the children
H3478
of Israel
H1288
blessed
H430
God,
H559
and spoke no more
H5927
of going up
H6635
against them to war,
H7843
to destroy
H776
the land
H1121
in which the children
H7205
of Reuben
H1410
and the children of Gad
H3427
lived.
