The men of the host, had taken prey, each man for himself.

So then Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold of the princes of thousands, and hundreds, - and brought it into the tent of meeting, as a memorial for the sons of Israel before Yahweh.

Now, much cattle, had come into the possession of the sons of Reuben and of the sons of Gad, an exceeding mighty number. And when they saw the land of Jazer and the land of Gilead, lo! the place, was a place for cattle.

the land which Yahweh smote before the assembly of Israel, a land for cattle, it is, - and, thy servants, have cattle.

And they said - If we have found favour in thine eyes, let this land he given unto thy servants, for a possession, - do not take us over the Jordan.

and they went up as far as the ravine of Eschol, and viewed the land, and then dissuaded the heart of the sons of Israel from entering into the land, which Yahweh had given them.

save Caleb son of Jephunneh, the Kenezite, and Joshua, son of Nun, - for they followed after Yahweh, fully.

Then came they near unto him, and said, Folds, for flocks, would we build for our cattle, here, - and cities for our little ones;

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 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.

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.

and thy servants, will pass over every one armed for war, before Yahweh to battle, - as, my lord is speaking.

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.

and Beth-nimrah, and Beth-haran, - fortified cities and folds for flocks.

And they brake up from Alush, - and encamped in Rephidim, where was no water for the people to drink.

So shall ye possess the land, and settle down therein, - for unto you, have given the land to possess it.

And ye shall take your inheritance in the land by lot by your families - for the large one, ye shall make large his inheritance, and for the small one, make small his inheritance, whithersoever the lot cometh out to him, his, shall, it be, by the tribes of your fathers, shall ye take your inheritance.

and the boundary shall go round for you from the south towards the cliffs of Akrabbim, then cross over towards Zin, and the extension thereof shall be from the south to Kadesh-barnea, then shall it reach out to Hazar-addar, and cross over towards Azmon;

And, for a west boundary, - ye shall have the great sea, even a boundary, this, shall serve you as west boundary.

And, this, shall serve you as a north boundary, - From the great sea, ye shall draw a line for you to Mount Hor:

Then shall ye draw for yourselves a line, for an east boundary, - from Hazar-enan towards Shepham;

For the tribe of the sons of the Reubenites by their ancestral house, and the tribe of the sons of Gad, by their ancestral house, have received, and, the half tribe of Manasseh have received, their inheritance:

These, are the names of the men who shall receive for you the land, as an inheritance, Eleazar, the priest, and Joshua, son of Nun.

And, for the tribe of the sons of Simeon, Shemuel son of Ammihud:

For the tribe of Benjamin, Elidad son of Chislon;

And, for the tribe of the sons of Dan, a prince - Bukki, son of Jogli:

For the sons of Joseph, For the tribe of the sons of Manasseh, a prince, - Hanniel son of Ephod;

And, for the tribe of the sons of Asher, a prince, - Ahihud son of Shelomi:

And, for the tribe of the sons of Naphtali, a prince, - Pedahel, son of Ammihud.

So shall the cities be theirs, to dwell in, - and their pasture lands, shall, ye for their cattle and for their goods and for all their beasts.

then shall ye find for you, convenient cities, cities of refuge, shall they be unto you, - and the manslayer, who hath slain a person, by mistake, shall flee thither.

So shall the cities serve you for places of refuge from the redeemer, - that the manslayer may not die, until he has stood before the assembly, for judgment,

For the sons of Israel and for the sojourner. and for the settler in your midst, shall these six cities serve, as places of refuge, - that any one may flee thither who hath slain a person, by mistake.

for in his city of refuge, should he have remained, until the death of the high priest, - and, after the death of the high priest, might he have returned into the land which he doth possess.

And ye shall accept no ransom for the life of him that slayeth, if he have unlawfully caused death, - but he, must surely be put to death.

And ye shall accept no ransom for him that hath fled to his city of refuge, if he should return to dwell in the land before the death of the priest.

So shall ye not pollute the land wherein ye are, for blood, doth pollute the land, and for the land, no propitiatory-covering can be made, as touching blood, that is shed therein, save with the blood of him that shed it;

thou must not then make unclean the land wherein, ye, are dwelling, in the midst of which, I, have my habitation; for, I, - Yahweh, am making my habitation in the midst of the sons of Israel.

So shall no inheritance belonging to the sons of Israel go round from tribe to tribe, - for the sons of Israel shall, each one, cleave, unto the inheritance of the tribe of his fathers,

and no inheritance go round from one tribe to another tribe, - for the tribes of the sons of Israel shall cleave, each one unto his own inheritance.
