The Israelis continued their travels, eventually encamping on the plains of Moab beside the Jordan River opposite Jericho.

At that time, Zippor's son Balak was the king of Moab. He sent messengers to Beor's son Balaam in Pethor, near the Euphrates River, the land where the descendants of his people originated, to summon his aid. He said, "Look! A group of people have escaped from Egypt. They cover the surface of the whole earth, and are sitting here right in front of me.

They're spread out like valleys, like gardens along river banks, like aloe planted by the LORD, or like cedars beside water.

Moses and Eleazar the priest spoke to them in the plains of Moab, by the Jordan River in Jericho.

Then they brought the captives, booty, and plunder to Moses, to Eleazar the priest, and to the entire community of Israel at the camp on the plains of Moab, by the Jordan River in Jericho.

If we've found favor in your sight, let this land be given to your servants as our possession instead of us crossing the Jordan River."

since our inheritance will not be with them across the Jordan River and beyond. Instead, our inheritance is on this side of the Jordan River, facing eastward."

and every one of your armed soldiers crosses over the Jordan River in the presence of the LORD until he has dispossessed his enemies ahead of him

but every soldier that we've equipped for battle will cross the Jordan River in the presence of the LORD, as our master has spoken."

telling them, "If the descendants of Gad and descendants of Reuben cross over the Jordan River with you, that is, all of their soldiers who've been equipped for battle in the LORD's presence, so that the land is subjugated right before your eyes, then you are to give them the land of Gilead as their possession.

"We are to cross over in battle array in the LORD's presence into the land of Canaan, and afterwards the possession of our inheritance will be on this side of the Jordan River."

They traveled from the mountains of Abarim, then rested in the plains of Moab by the Jordan River, across from Jericho.

They rested by the Jordan River in the area from Beth-jeshimoth to Abel-shittim in the plains of Moab.

Then the LORD told Moses in the plains of Moab by the Jordan River, across from Jericho,

"Tell the Israelis that when they have crossed the Jordan River to the land of Canaan,

The border is to continue along the Jordan River all the way to the Dead Sea. This is to be your land, as measured by its boundaries.'"

These two and a half tribes received their inheritance this side of the Jordan River, east of Jericho, facing the rising sun."

The LORD told Moses in the wilderness of Moab, beside the Jordan River near Jericho,

"Tell the Israelis that when they have crossed the Jordan River into the land of Canaan,

Appoint three towns this side of the Jordan River and three towns in the land of Canaan to serve as the towns of refuge,

These were the commands and the ordinances that the LORD issued to the Israelis through Moses in the plains of Moab by the Jordan River in Jericho.
