And sixty one thousand asses,

And thirty and two thousand persons in all, of women that had not known man by lying with him.

And the half which was the portion of them that went out to war, was in number three hundred thousand and seven and thirty thousand and five hundred sheep:

And the LORD'S tribute of the sheep was six hundred and seventy five.

And the beeves were thirty and six thousand; of which the LORD'S tribute was seventy two.

And the asses were thirty thousand and five hundred; of which the LORD'S tribute was sixty one.

And the persons were sixteen thousand, of which the LORD'S tribute was thirty and two persons.

And Moses gave the tribute, which was the LORD'S heave-offering, to Eleazar the priest, as the LORD commanded Moses.

And of the children of Israel's half, which Moses divided from the men that warred,

(Now the half that pertained to the congregation was three hundred thousand and thirty thousand and seven thousand and five hundred sheep,

And thirty and six thousand beeves,

And thirty thousand asses and five hundred,

And sixteen thousand persons;)

Even of the children of Israel's half, Moses took one portion of fifty, both of man and of beast, and gave them to the Levites, who kept the charge of the tabernacle of the LORD; as the LORD commanded Moses.

And the officers who were over thousands of the hosts, the captains of thousands, and captains of hundreds, came near to Moses:

And they said to Moses, Thy servants have taken the sum of the men of war who are under our charge, and there lacketh not one man of us.

We have therefore brought an oblation for the LORD, what every man hath obtained of jewels of gold, chains, and bracelets, rings, ear-rings, and tablets, to make an atonement for our souls before the LORD.

And Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold of them, even all wrought jewels.

And all the gold of the offering that they offered to the LORD, of the captains of thousands, and of the captains of hundreds, was sixteen thousand seven hundred and fifty shekels.

And Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold of the captains of thousands, and of hundreds, and brought it into the tabernacle of the congregation, for a memorial for the children of Israel before the LORD.

Now the children of Reuben and the children of Gad had a very great multitude of cattle: and when they saw the land of Jazer, and the land of Gilead, that behold, the place was a place for cattle;

The children of Gad and the children of Reuben came and spoke to Moses, and to Eleazar the priest, and to the princes of the congregation, saying,

Ataroth, and Dibon, and Jazer, and Nimrah, and Heshbon, and Elealeh, and Shebam, and Nebo, and Beon,

Even the country which the LORD smote before the congregation of Israel, is a land for cattle, and thy servants have cattle:

Wherefore, said they, if we have found grace in thy sight, let this land be given to thy servants for a possession, and bring us not over Jordan.

And Moses said to the children of Gad and to the children of Reuben, Shall your brethren go to war, and shall ye sit here?

And why discourage ye the heart of the children of Israel from going over into the land which the LORD hath given them?

For when they went up to the valley of Eshcol, and saw the land, they discouraged the heart of the children of Israel, that they should not go into the land which the LORD had given them.

And the LORD'S anger was kindled the same time, and he swore, saying,

Surely none of the men that came up from Egypt, from twenty years old and upward, shall see the land which I swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob; because they have not wholly followed me:

Save Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenezite, and Joshua the son of Nun: for they have wholly followed the LORD.

And the LORD'S anger was kindled against Israel, and he made them wander in the wilderness forty years, until all the generation that had done evil in the sight of the LORD was consumed.

And behold, ye have risen up in your fathers' stead, an increase of sinful men, to augment yet the fierce anger of the LORD towards Israel.

For if ye turn away from after him, he will yet again leave them in the wilderness; and he will destroy all this people.

And they came near to him, and said, We will build sheep-folds here for our cattle, and cities for our little ones:

But we ourselves will go ready armed before the children of Israel, until we have brought them to their place: and our little ones shall dwell in the fortified cities, because of the inhabitants of the land.

And Moses said to them, If ye will do this thing, if ye will go armed before the LORD to war,

And will go all of you armed over Jordan before the LORD, until he hath driven out his enemies from before him,

And the land shall be subdued before the LORD: then afterward ye shall return, and be guiltless before the LORD, and before Israel; and this land shall be your possession before the LORD.

But if ye will not do so, behold, ye have sinned against the LORD: and be sure your sin will find you out.

Build you cities for your little ones, and folds for your sheep; and do that which hath proceeded out of your mouth.

And the children of Gad and the children of Reuben spoke to Moses, saying, Thy servants will do as my lord commandeth.

Our little ones, our wives, our flocks, and all our cattle, shall be there in the cities of Gilead:

So concerning them Moses commanded Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun, and the chief fathers of the tribes of the children of Israel:

And Moses said to them, If the children of Gad and the children of Reuben will pass with you over Jordan, every man armed for battle, before the LORD, and the land shall be subdued before you; then ye shall give them the land of Gilead for a possession:

And the children of Gad and the children of Reuben answered, saying, As the LORD hath said to thy servants, so will we do.

We will pass over armed before the LORD into the land of Canaan, that the possession of our inheritance on this side Jordan may be ours.

And Moses gave to them, even to the children of Gad, and to the children of Reuben, and to half the tribe of Manasseh the son of Joseph, the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites, and the kingdom of Og king of Bashan, the land, with its cities in the borders, even the cities of the country around.

And the children of Gad built Dibon, and Ataroth, and Aroer,

And Atroth, Shophan, and Jaazer, and Jogbehah,

And Beth-nimrah, and Beth-haran, fortified cities: and folds for sheep.

And the children of Reuben built Heshbon, and Elealeh, and Kirjathaim,

And Nebo, and Baal-meon, (their names being changed,) and Shibmah: and gave other names to the cities which they built.

And the children of Machir the son of Manasseh went to Gilead, and took it, and dispossessed the Amorite who was in it.

And Moses gave Gilead to Machir the son of Manasseh; and he dwelt in it.

And Jair the son of Manasseh went and took its small towns, and called them Havoth-jair.

And Nobah went and took Kenath, and its villages, and called it Nobah, after his own name.

These are the journeys of the children of Israel, who went forth from the land of Egypt with their armies under the hand of Moses and Aaron.

And Moses wrote their goings out according to their journeys by the commandment of the LORD: and these are their journeys according to their goings out.

And they departed from Rameses in the first month, on the fifteenth day of the first month; on the morrow after the passover the children of Israel went out with a high hand in the sight of all the Egyptians.

And the children of Israel removed from Rameses, and encamped in Succoth.

And they departed from Succoth, and encamped in Etham, which is in the edge of the wilderness.

And they removed from Etham, and turned again to Pi-hahiroth, which is before Baal-zephon: and they encamped before Migdol.

And they departed from before Pi-hahiroth, and passed through the midst of the sea into the wilderness, and went three days' journey in the wilderness of Etham, and encamped in Marah.

And they removed from Marah, and came to Elim: and in Elim were twelve fountains of water, and seventy palm-trees; and they encamped there.

And they removed from Elim, and encamped by the Red sea.

And they removed from the Red sea, and encamped in the wilderness of Sin.

And they took their journey out of the wilderness of Sin, and encamped in Dophkah.

And they departed from Dophkah, and encamped in Alush.

And they removed from Alush, and encamped at Rephidim, where was no water for the people to drink.

And they departed from Rephidim, and encamped in the wilderness of Sinai.

And they removed from the desert of Sinai, and encamped at Kibroth-hattaavah.

And they departed from Kibroth-hattaavah, and encamped at Hazeroth.

And they departed from Hazeroth, and encamped in Rithmah.

And they departed from Rithmah, and encamped at Rimmon-parez.

And they departed from Rimmon-parez, and encamped in Libnah.

And they removed from Libnah, and encamped at Rissah.

And they journeyed from Rissah, and encamped in Kehelathah.

And they went from Kehelathah, and encamped in mount Shapher.

And they removed from mount Shapher, and encamped in Haradah.

And they removed from Haradah, and encamped in Makheloth.

And they removed from Makheloth, and encamped at Tahath.

And they departed from Tahath, and encamped at Tarah.

And they removed from Tarah, and encamped in Mithcah.

And they went from Mithcah, and encamped in Hashmonah.

And they departed from Hashmonah, and encamped at Moseroth.

And they departed from Moseroth, and encamped in Bene-jaakan.

And they removed from Bene-jaakan, and encamped at Hor-hagidgad.

And they went from Hor-hagidgad, and encamped in Jotbathah.

And they removed from Jotbathah, and encamped at Ebronah.

And they departed from Ebronah, and encamped at Ezion-gaber.

And they removed from Ezion-gaber, and encamped in the wilderness of Zin, which is Kadesh.

And they removed from Kadesh, and encamped in mount Hor, in the edge of the land of Edom.

And Aaron the priest ascended mount Hor at the commandment of the LORD, and died there, in the fortieth year after the children of Israel departed from the land of Egypt, in the first day of the fifth month.

And Aaron was a hundred and twenty and three years old when he died in mount Hor.

And king Arad the Canaanite who dwelt in the south in the land of Canaan, heard of the coming of the children of Israel.

And they departed from mount Hor, and encamped in Zalmonah.

And they departed from Zalmonah, and encamped in Punon.

And they departed from Punon, and encamped in Oboth.

And they departed from Oboth, and encamped in Ije-abarim, in the border of Moab.
