And Moses will say to them, If ye will do this word, if ye will arm yourselves before Jehovah for battle, And all to you being armed, pass over Jordan before Jehovah, till his driving out his enemies from his face, And the land subdued before Jehovah: and afterwards ye shall turn back, and be unpunished from Jehovah and from Israel; and this land shall be to you for a possession before Jehovah. And if ye shall not do this, behold, ye sinned to Jehovah: and know ye, your sin which shall find you. Build to you cities for your little ones, and folds for your sheep; and ye shall do that coming out of your mouth. And the sons of Gad and the sons of Reuben will speak to Moses, saying, Thy servants will do as my lord commanded.
