Then came they near unto him, and said, Folds, for flocks, would we build for our cattle, here, - and cities for our little ones; but, we, would arm ourselves promptly, before the sons of Israel, until that we have brought them into their place, - so should our little ones remain in the fortified cities, because of the inhabitants of the land. We would not return unto our houses, - until the sons of Israel have possessed themselves each man, of his inheritance. read more.
For we would not inherit with them, over the Jordan, and onwards, - because our inheritance hath come unto us on this side the Jordan towards sunrise. And Moses said unto them, If ye will indeed do this thing, - if ye will arm yourselves, before Yahweh, for the war; and every armed man of you pass over the Jordan before Yahweh, - until he hath dispossessed his enemies, from before him; and the land be subdued before Yahweh then afterwards, shall ye return, and shall be acquitted by Yahweh and by Israel, - and this land shall be yours for a possession before Yahweh. But, if ye shall not do this, lo! ye will have sinned against Yahweh, - and take note of your sin, that it will find you out. Build you cities for your little ones, and folds for your flocks, - and then that which hath gone forth from your mouth, ye shall do. Then spake the sons of Gad, and the sons of Reuben unto Moses, saying, - thy servants, will do, as, my lord, is giving command. Our little ones, our wives, our cattle, and all our beasts, shall remain there in the cities of Gilead; and thy servants, will pass over every one armed for war, before Yahweh to battle, - as, my lord is speaking. So Moses gave command concerning them, unto Eleazar the priest and unto Joshua son of Nun, and unto the headset the fathers of the tribes, of the sons of Israel; and Moses said unto them - If the sons of Gad and the son of Reuben will pass with you over the Jordan, every one armed for the war before Yahweh, and the land be subdued before you, then shall ye give unto them the land of Gilead, for a possession. But, if they will not pass over armed, with you, then shall they accept a possession in your midst, in the land of Canaan. Then responded the sons of Gad and the sons of Reuben, saying, - That which Yahweh had spoken unto thy servants, so, will we do. We, will pass over armed, before Yahweh into the land of Canaan, - then shall be ours, the possession of our inheritance across the Jordan.

Also the sons of Reuben and the sons of Gad and the hall tribe of Manasseh, passed over, armed, before the sons of Israel, - as Moses had spoken unto them: about forty thousand, equipped for the war, passed over before Yahweh, to battle, into the waste plains of Jericho.
Then, called Joshua - for the Reubenites, and for the Gadites, - and for the half tribe of Manasseh; and said unto them, Ye, have observed all that Moses the servant of Yahweh commanded you, - and have hearkened unto my voice, in all that I commanded you: ye have not forsaken your brethren, these many days, unto this day, - but have kept the charge of the commandment of Yahweh your God. read more.
Now, therefore, that Yahweh your God hath given rest unto your brethren, according as he spake unto them, - now, therefore, turn ye and get you to your homes within the land of your possession, which Moses the servant of Yahweh gave unto you, over the Jordan. Only, take ye diligent heed, to do the commandment and the law, which Moses the servant of Yahweh commanded you - to love Yahweh your God, and to walk in all his ways, and to keep his commandments, and to cleave unto him, - and to serve him - with all your heart, and with all your soul. So Joshua blessed them, - and sent them away, and they took their journey unto their homes. Now, unto the one half tribe of Manesseh, had Moses given a possession in Bashan, and, unto the other half, did Joshua give possession with their brethren, over the Jordan, westward, - moreover also, when Joshua sent them away unto their homes, he blessed them, and spake unto them, saying - With much wealth, return ye unto your homes, even with very much cattle, with silver and with gold, and with copper and with iron, and with very much raiment, - divide ye the spoil of your enemies with your brethren.
