The LORD said to Moses, "Go up into this mountain of Abarim, and see the land which I have given to the children of Israel.

"'In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, is the LORD's Passover.

"Also when a woman vows a vow to the LORD, and binds herself by a bond, being in her father's house, in her youth,

"If she vowed in her husband's house, or bound her soul by a bond with an oath,

These are the statutes, which the LORD commanded Moses, between a man and his wife, between a father and his daughter, being in her youth, in her father's house.

Moses spoke to the people, saying, "Arm men from among you for the war, that they may go against Midian, to execute the LORD's vengeance on Midian.

So there were delivered, out of the thousands of Israel, a thousand of every tribe, twelve thousand armed for war.

Behold, these caused the children of Israel, through the counsel of Balaam, to commit trespass against the LORD in the matter of Peor, and so the plague was among the congregation of the LORD.

Take it of their half, and give it to Eleazar the priest, for the LORD's wave offering.

Of the children of Israel's half, you shall take one drawn out of every fifty, of the persons, of the cattle, of the donkeys, and of the flocks, of all the livestock, and give them to the Levites, who perform the duty of the tabernacle of the LORD."

and the LORD's tribute of the sheep was six hundred seventy-five.

The cattle were thirty-six thousand; of which the LORD's tribute was seventy-two.

The donkeys were thirty thousand five hundred; of which the LORD's tribute was sixty-one.

The persons were sixteen thousand; of whom the LORD's tribute was thirty-two persons.

Moses gave the tribute, which was the LORD's wave offering, to Eleazar the priest, as the LORD commanded Moses.

Of the children of Israel's half, which Moses divided off from the men who warred

(now the congregation's half was three hundred thirty-seven thousand five hundred sheep,

even of the children of Israel's half, Moses took one drawn out of every fifty, both of man and of animal, and gave them to the Levites, who performed the duty of the tabernacle of the LORD; as the LORD commanded Moses.

We have brought the LORD's offering, what every man has gotten, of jewels of gold, armlets, and bracelets, signet rings, earrings, and necklaces, to make atonement for our souls before the LORD."

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

Your fathers did so when I sent them from Kadesh Barnea to see the land.

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.

The LORD's anger was kindled in that day, and he swore, saying,

'Surely none of the men who came up out of 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:

The LORD's anger was kindled against Israel, and he made them wander back and forth in the wilderness forty years, until all the generation, who had done evil in the sight of the LORD, was consumed.

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

So Moses commanded concerning them to Eleazar the priest, and to Joshua the son of Nun, and to the heads of the ancestral houses of the tribes of the children of Israel.

The children of Gad and the children of Reuben answered, saying, "As the LORD has said to your servants, so will we do.

They traveled from before Hahiroth, and passed through the midst of the sea into the wilderness: and they went three days' journey in the wilderness of Etham, and encamped in Marah.

They traveled from Elim, and encamped by the Sea of Suf.

They traveled from the Sea of Suf, and encamped in the wilderness of Sin.

It shall happen that as I thought to do to them, so will I do to you."

then your south quarter shall be from the wilderness of Zin along by the side of Edom, and your south border shall be from the end of the Salt Sea eastward;

and the border shall turn about from Azmon to the brook of Egypt, and the goings out of it shall be at the sea.

"'For the western border, you shall have the great sea and its border: this shall be your west border.

"'This shall be your north border: from the great sea you shall mark out for you Mount Hor;

and the border shall go down from Shepham to Riblah, on the east side of Ain; and the border shall go down, and shall reach to the side of the sea of Chinnereth eastward;

and the border shall go down to the Jordan, and the goings out of it shall be at the Salt Sea. This shall be your land according to its borders around it.'"

"'But if he struck him with an instrument of iron, so that he died, he is a murderer: the murderer shall surely be put to death.

If he thrust him of hatred, or hurled at him, lying in wait, so that he died,

or in enmity struck him with his hand, so that he died; he who struck him shall surely be put to death; he is a murderer: the avenger of blood shall put the murderer to death, when he meets him.

or with any stone, by which a man may die, not seeing him, and cast it on him, so that he died, and he was not his enemy, neither sought his harm;

"'So you shall not pollute the land in which you are: for blood, it pollutes the land; and no expiation can be made for the land for the blood that is shed therein, but by the blood of him who shed it.

If they are married to any of the sons of the other tribes of the children of Israel, then will their inheritance be taken away from the inheritance of our fathers, and will be added to the inheritance of the tribe whereunto they shall belong: so will it be taken away from the lot of our inheritance.

When the jubilee of the children of Israel shall be, then will their inheritance be added to the inheritance of the tribe whereunto they shall belong: so will their inheritance be taken away from the inheritance of the tribe of our fathers."

So shall no inheritance of the children of Israel remove from tribe to tribe; for the children of Israel shall all keep the inheritance of the tribe of his fathers.

So shall no inheritance remove from one tribe to another tribe; for the tribes of the children of Israel shall each keep his own inheritance."

for Mahlah, Tirzah, and Hoglah, and Milcah, and Noah, the daughters of Zelophehad, were married to their father's brothers' sons.
