Joshua 22:1-8 - Eastern Tribes Return Home

¹ Later, Joshua called together the descendants of Reuben, the descendants of Gad, and the half-tribe of Manasseh ² and told them, "You have done everything that Moses the servant of the LORD commanded you, and you have listened to me in everything that I commanded you. ³ You haven't abandoned your relatives these past days to the present, and you have met the obligation contained in the commands of the LORD your God. ⁴ Now the LORD has given peace to your relatives, just as he told them. Therefore, proceed to your tents to the land that is yours to possess that Moses the servant of the LORD gave you east of the Jordan River. ⁵ Only be very careful to keep the commands and the Law that Moses the servant of the LORD commanded you that is, to love the LORD your God, to follow in all of his ways, to keep his commands, to stay close to him, and to serve him with all your heart and soul."

⁶ That's how Joshua blessed them. Then he sent them on their way and they returned to their tents. ⁷ Now Moses had made an allotment in Bashan to one half-tribe of Manasseh, but Joshua made an allotment west of the Jordan River to the other half-tribe of their relatives. So when Joshua sent them on their way back to their tents, he also blessed them by saying ⁸ "Return to your tents with great wealth, plenty of livestock, silver, gold, bronze, iron, and lots of clothing. Divide the spoil from your enemies among your relatives."
