For their grain offering, you will offer finely milled flour mixed with oil: three-tenths for the bull and two-tenths for the ram.

You will offer a tenth for each of the seven male lambs;

You will offer these besides the burnt offering of the morning, which [is] for the continual burnt offering.

Like this you will offer daily, for seven days, [the] food of the offering made by fire, a fragrance of appeasement for Yahweh; it will be offered in addition to the continual burnt offering and its libation.

On the seventh day you will have a holy convocation; {you will not do any regular work}.

" 'And on the day of firstfruits, when you are presenting a new offering for Yahweh during your Festival of Weeks, you will have a holy convocation; {you will not do any regular work}.

You will present a burnt offering for a fragrance of appeasement for Yahweh: two bulls, one ram, seven male lambs {in their first year};

and their grain offering will be finely milled flour mixed with oil: three-tenths for each bull, two-tenths for one ram,

In addition to the continual burnt offering and its grain offering, you will offer [them] without defect with their libation.

" 'On the seventh month, on the first day of the month, you will have a holy convocation; {you will not do any regular work}. It will be a day for you of blowing trumpets.

You will offer a burnt offering as a fragrance of appeasement for Yahweh: one bull, one ram, [and] seven male lambs {in their first year}; they will be without defect.

Their grain offering will be finely milled flour mixed with oil: three-tenths for the bull, two-tenths for the ram;

" 'And on the tenth of this seventh month you will have a holy convocation, and {you will afflict yourselves}; you will not do any work.

You will present a burnt offering for Yahweh, a fragrance of appeasement: one bull, one ram, seven male lambs {in their first year}; they will be without defect.

And their grain offering [will be of] finely milled flour mixed with oil: three-tenths for the bull, two-tenths for the one ram,

" 'Then on the fifteenth day of the seventh month you will have a holy convocation; {you will not do any regular work}, and you will hold a religious feast for Yahweh for seven days.

You will present a burnt offering, an offering made by fire as a fragrance of appeasement for Yahweh: thirteen bulls, two rams, fourteen male lambs {in their first year}; they will be without defect.

And their grain offering [will be of] finely milled flour mixed with oil: three-tenths for the bull, two-tenths for the one ram,

but if her father hears her vow or her pledge that she bound on herself and says nothing to her, then all her vows will stand, and every pledge that she binds on her life will stand.

If her father forbids her on the day he hears [of it], all her vows or her pledges that she bound on herself will not stand, and Yahweh will forgive her because her father has forgiven her.

and her husband hears [of it] and is silent on the day he hears [it], her vows will stand, and her pledge that she bound upon herself will stand.

But if on the day her husband hears [of it], he forbids her, then he will nullify her vow that she is under, and the rash promise of her lips that she bound on herself; and Yahweh will forgive her.

"But the vow of a widow or a woman who is divorced, all that she binds on herself will stand on her.

and her husband heard [it] but was silent to her, and he did not forbid her, all her vows will stand and every pledge that she bound on herself will stand.

But if her husband nullified them on the day he hears [them], all her vows going out of her lips concerning her vows or the pledge on herself will not stand; her husband has nullified them, and Yahweh will forgive her.

But if he indeed nullifies them after he hears them, then he will bear her guilt."

"Seek vengeance for the {Israelites} on the Midianites; afterward you will be gathered to your people."

Moses spoke to the people, saying, "Arm yourself from among your men for the battle, so that they will {go} against Midian to mete out the vengeance of Yahweh on Midian.

A thousand from each tribe of every tribe of Israel you will send to battle."

You will purify yourselves and every garment and every object of hide and all the work of goats' hair, and every object of wood."

everything that will go through the fire--you will pass through the fire, and it will be clean, and only in waters of impurity will it be purified. Whatever does not go into the fire you will pass through the waters.

And you will wash your garments on the seventh day and be clean, and afterward you will come into the camp."

But Moses said to the descendants of Gad and to the descendants of Reuben, "Will your brothers go to war while you yourselves live here?

'The men who went up from Egypt, from {those twenty years old} and above, will not see the land that I swore with an oath to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob because they have not wholly followed me,

If you turn from following him, he will again abandon them in the wilderness, and you would have destroyed all these people."

They came near to him and said, "We will build sheep pens here for [the] flock of our livestock and cities for our little children;

but we ourselves will become armed [and] ready before the {Israelites} until we have brought them to their place, and our little children will live in the fortified cities because of the inhabitants of the land.

We will not return to our houses until the {Israelites} each obtain their inheritance for themselves.

For we will not take possession with them from across the Jordan and beyond because our inheritance has come to us from across the Jordan to the east."

and the land is subdued {before} Yahweh, then afterward you will return and be free of obligation from Yahweh and from Israel, and this land will be your property {before} Yahweh.

But if you do not do so, behold, you have sinned against Yahweh, and know that your sin will find you.

Build for yourselves cities for your little children and sheep pens for your flocks; what has gone out from your mouth you will do."

So the descendants of Gad and the descendants of Reuben said to Moses, saying, "Your servants will do just as my lord commands.

Our little children, our wives, our livestock, and all of our animals {will remain} in the cities of Gilead,

but your servants, everyone who is armed for battle, will cross over {before} Yahweh to the war, just as my lord says."

Moses said to them, "If the descendants of Gad and the descendants of Reuben, everyone who is armed for the war, cross over the Jordan {before} Yahweh, and the land is subdued before you, you will give them the land of Gilead as property.

But if they will not cross over with you armed, they will acquire land in your midst in Canaan."

The descendants of Gad and the descendants of Reuben answered and said, "What Yahweh has commanded your servants, we will do.

We ourselves will cross over armed {before} Yahweh to the land of Canaan, and the property of our inheritance [will remain] with us beyond the Jordan."

you will drive out the inhabitants of the land from your presence, and you will destroy all their idols and all the images of their molten idols, and you will demolish all their high places;

you will dispossess the land and live in it because I have given the land to you to possess it.

You will distribute the land by lot according to your clans; to the larger group you will give a larger inheritance, and to the smaller group you will give less inheritance. However the lot falls for him, there the lot will be. You will distribute it according to the tribes of your ancestors.

But if you do not drive out the inhabitants of the land from your presence, then it will happen that whomever you let remain of them will be like irritants in your eyes and like thorns in your sides; they will be your enemies in the land in which you live.

And just as I planned to do [to] them, I will do to you.'"

Your southern edge will be from the desert of Zin toward the side of Edom, and your southern border will be from the end of the Salt Sea to the east;

your boundary will turn from the south to the ascent of Akrabbim and will pass over to Zin, and its limits will be from the south of Kadesh Barnea; it will continue to Hazar Addar and pass over to Azmon.

The boundary will turn from Azmon to the valley of Egypt, and its limits will be to the sea.

" 'Your western boundary will be the Great Sea; this will be your western boundary.

Your northern border will be from the Great Sea; you will make a boundary from the Great Sea to Mount Hor.

From Mount Hor you will make a boundary to reach Hamath; the limits of the territory will be at Zedad.

The boundary will go out to Ziphron, and its limits will be at Hazar Enan. This will be your boundary to the north.

" 'You will mark out your eastern boundary from Hazar Enan to Shepham;

the boundary will go down from Shepham to Riblah from the east side of Ain, and the boundary will go down and border on the eastern side of the Sea of Kinnereth.

The boundary will go down to the Jordan, and its limits will be at the Salt Sea. This will be your land according to its boundaries all around.'"

So Moses commanded the {Israelites}, saying, "This [is] the land that you will obtain as an inheritance for yourself by lot, which Yahweh commanded to give to the nine and a half tribes.

You will take one leader from every tribe to divide up the land for inheritance.

"Command the {Israelites} that they give to the Levites from the inheritance of their property cities to live in; and you will give to the Levites pastureland all around the cities.

The cities will be theirs to live in, and their pasturelands will be for their domestic animals, for their possessions, and their animals.

"The pasturelands of the cities that you will give to the Levites [will extend] from the wall of the city to [a distance of] a thousand cubits all around.

You will measure outside the city the eastern edge two thousand cubits, for the southern edge two thousand cubits, for the western edge two thousand cubits, and for the northern edge two thousand cubits, with the city in the middle; this will be for them the pasturelands of the cities.

"All the cities that you will give the Levites will be six cities of refuge, to which the killer can flee; in addition to them you will give forty-two cities.

All the cities that you will give to the Levites will be forty-eight cities, them with their pasturelands.

And the cities that you will give from the property of the {Israelites}, you will take more from the larger group and less from the smaller group; each of them will give according to the portion of their inheritance according to the portion that he inherits."

you will select for yourselves cities for your cities of refuge, that a killer who has killed a person unintentionally can flee there.

The cities will be to you a refuge from a redeemer, so that the killer will not die until he stands before the community for judgment.

The cities that you are to give will be your six cities of refuge.

You will give three cities across the Jordan and three cities in the land of Canaan; they will be cities of refuge.

To the {Israelites}, to the alien, and to the temporary resident in their midst there will be these six cities as a refuge to which anyone who unintentionally kills a person may flee.

And if he hit him with a stone in the hand, by which he will die, and he does die, he [is] a killer; the killer must surely be put to death.

Or if he hit him with a wooden object, by which he will die, and he does die, he [is] a killer; the killer must surely be put to death.

The blood avenger himself will put the killer to death; he must put him to death when meeting him.

or if he hits him in hostility with his hand, and he dies, the one that struck him will put to death the killer when meeting him.

then the community will judge between the striker and between the blood avenger according to these ordinances.

The community will deliver the killer from the hand of the blood avenger, and the community will restore him to the city of his refuge to which he fled; and he will live there in it until the death of the high priest who was anointed with holy oil.

and the blood avenger finds him outside the territory of the city of his refuge, and the blood avenger kills the killer, {he will not be guilty of blood}

because he must live in the city of his refuge until the death of the high priest. But after the death of the high priest the killer will return to the land of his property.

These things will be as a decree of justice for you for your generations in all your dwellings.

" 'If anyone kills a person, the killer will be put to death {according to the testimony} of witnesses, but someone cannot die on testimony of one person.

Also, you will not take a ransom payment for the life of a killer who [is] guilty of death; indeed, he must surely be put to death.

You will not take a ransom payment for the one that flees to the city of his refuge, so that he may return to live in the land before the death of the priest.

So you will not pollute the land in which you are; because blood pollutes the land, and no atonement can be made for the land for the blood that is poured out on it except with the blood of the one who poured it out.

You will not defile the land on which you [are] living because I [am] living in the midst of it; I am Yahweh; I [am] living in the midst of the {Israelites}.'"

But if they become wives to one of the sons from [another] tribe of the {Israelites}, their inheritance will disappear from the inheritance of our ancestors, and it will be added to the inheritance of the tribe to which they belong; the lot of our inheritance would disappear.

When the Jubilee of the {Israelites} {comes}, it will be added to the inheritance of the tribe to which they belong; and their inheritance will disappear from the tribe of our father."

Thus an inheritance of the {Israelites} will not go around from tribe to tribe. Rather, the inheritance of each tribe of his father will remain with the {Israelites}.

Every daughter who possesses an inheritance from the tribes of the {Israelites} will {marry} one of the clan of the tribe of her father, so that the {Israelites} will possess the inheritance of his ancestors.
