but we won't return to our homes until every Israeli has taken possession of each of their inheritances,

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

Build cities for your dependents and folds for your flocks, but do what you have promised.”

But thy servants will pass over, every man armed for war, before the LORD to battle, as my lord saith.

But if they will not pass over with you armed, they shall have possessions among you in the land of Canaan.

We will cross over in battle formation before the Lord into the land of Canaan, but we will keep our hereditary possession across the Jordan.”

And the children of Machir the son of Manasseh went to Gilead and took it, and put out the Amorites that were therein.

And the stages of their journey on their way out were put down in writing by Moses at the order of the Lord: these are the stages of their journey and the way they went.

So the children of Israel went from Rameses and put up their tents in Succoth.

And they went on from Succoth and put up their tents in Etham on the edge of the waste land.

And from Etham, turning back to Pi-hahiroth which is before Baal-zephon, they put up their tents before Migdol.

And journeying on from before Hahiroth, they went through the sea into the waste land: they went three days' journey through the waste land of Etham and put up their tents in Marah.

And from Marah they went on to Elim: and in Elim there were twelve water-springs and seventy palm-trees; and they put up their tents there.

And they went on from Elim and put up their tents by the Red Sea.

Then from the Red Sea they went on and put up their tents in the waste land of Sin.

And they went on from the waste land of Sin, and put up their tents in Dophkah.

And they went on from Dophkah, and put up their tents in Alush.

And they went on from Alush, and put up their tents in Rephidim, where there was no drinking-water for the people.

And they went on from Rephidim, and put up their tents in the waste land of Sinai.

And they went on from the waste land of Sinai and put up their tents in Kibroth-hattaavah.

And they went on from Kibroth-hattaavah, and put up their tents in Hazeroth.

And they went on from Hazeroth, and put up their tents in Rithmah.

And they went on from Rithmah, and put up their tents in Rimmon-perez.

And they went on from Rimmon-perez, and put up their tents in Libnah.

And they went on from Libnah, and put up their tents in Rissah.

And they went on from Rissah, and put up their tents in Kehelathah.

And they went on from Kehelathah, and put up their tents in Mount Shepher.

And they went on from Mount Shepher, and put up their tents in Haradah.

And they went on from Haradah, and put up their tents in Makheloth.

And they went on from Makheloth, and put up their tents in Tahath.

And they went on from Tahath, and put up their tents in Terah.

And they went on from Terah, and put up their tents in Mithkah.

And they went on from Mithkah, and put up their tents in Hashmonah.

And they went on from Hashmonah, and put up their tents in Moseroth.

And they went on from Moseroth, and put up their tents in Bene-jaakan.

And they went on from Bene-jaakan, and put up their tents in Hor-haggidgad.

And they went on from Hor-haggidgad, and put up their tents in Jotbathah.

And they went on from Jotbathah, and put up their tents in Abronah.

And they went on from Abronah, and put up their tents in Ezion-geber.

And they went on from Ezion-geber, and put up their tents in the waste land of Zin (which is Kadesh).

And they went on from Kadesh, and put up their tents in Mount Hor, on the edge of the land of Edom.

And from Mount Hor they went on, and put up their tents in Zalmonah.

And they went on from Zalmonah, and put up their tents in Punon.

And they went on from Punon, and put up their tents in Oboth.

And they went on from Oboth, and put up their tents in Iye-abarim at the edge of Moab.

And they went on from Iyim, and put up their tents in Dibon-gad.

And from Dibon-gad they went on, and put up their tents in Almon-diblathaim.

And from Almon-diblathaim they went on, and put up their tents in the mountains of Abarim, before Nebo.

And they went on from the mountains of Abarim, and put up their tents in the lowlands of Moab by Jordan at Jericho;

See that all the people of the land are forced out from before you, and put to destruction all their pictured stones, and all their metal images, and all their high places:

But if ye will not drive out the inhabitants of the land from before you; then it shall come to pass, that those which ye let remain of them shall be pricks in your eyes, and thorns in your sides, and shall vex you in the land wherein ye dwell.

And the cities which ye shall give shall be of the possession of the children of Israel: from them that have many ye shall give many; but from them that have few ye shall give few: every one shall give of his cities unto the Levites according to his inheritance which he inheriteth.

And if he smite him with an instrument of iron, so that he die, he is a murderer: the murderer shall surely be put to death.

And if he smite him with throwing a stone, wherewith he may die, and he die, he is a murderer: the murderer shall surely be put to death.

Or if he smite him with an hand weapon of wood, wherewith he may die, and he die, he is a murderer: the murderer shall surely be put to death.

The avenger of blood shall himself put the murderer to death: when he meeteth him, he shall put him to death.

But if he thrust him of hatred, or hurl at him by laying of wait, that he die;

Or in enmity smite him with his hand, that he die: he that smote him shall surely be put to death; for he is a murderer: the revenger of blood shall slay the murderer, when he meeteth him.

But if he thrust him suddenly without enmity, or have cast upon him any thing without laying of wait,

or without looking drops a stone that could kill a person and he dies, but he was not his enemy and wasn’t trying to harm him,

And the congregation shall deliver the slayer out of the hand of the judge of blood, and shall restore him again unto the franchised city whither he was fled. And he shall bide there unto the death of the high priest which was anointed with holy oil.

But if the slayer shall at any time come without the border of the city of his refuge, whither he was fled;

Because he should have remained in the city of his refuge until the death of the high priest: but after the death of the high priest the slayer shall return into the land of his possession.

Whoso killeth any person, the murderer shall be put to death by the mouth of witnesses: but one witness shall not testify against any person to cause him to die.

Moreover ye shall take no satisfaction for the life of a murderer, which is guilty of death: but he shall be surely put to death.

You are not to receive payment of a ransom for someone who had fled to a town of refuge but then left to live in his homeland before the death of the high priest.

So ye shall not pollute the land wherein ye are: for blood it defileth the land: and the land cannot be cleansed of the blood that is shed therein, but by the blood of him that shed it.

And if they be married to any of the sons of the other tribes of the children of Israel, then shall their inheritance be taken from the inheritance of our fathers, and shall be put to the inheritance of the tribe whereunto they are received: so shall it be taken from the lot of our inheritance.

And when the jubile of the children of Israel shall be, then shall their inheritance be put unto the inheritance of the tribe whereunto they are received: so shall their inheritance be taken away from the inheritance of the tribe of our fathers.

This is the order of the Lord about the daughters of Zelophehad: The Lord says, Let them take as their husbands whoever is most pleasing to them, but only among the family of their father's tribe.

And so no property will be handed from tribe to tribe among the children of Israel; but every one of the children of Israel will keep the heritage of his father's tribe.

Neither shall the inheritance remove from one tribe to another tribe; but every one of the tribes of the children of Israel shall keep himself to his own inheritance.

But how can I bear your troubles, burdens, and disputes by myself?

Ye shall not respect persons in judgment; but ye shall hear the small as well as the great; ye shall not be afraid of the face of man; for the judgment is God's: and the cause that is too hard for you, bring it unto me, and I will hear it.

See now, the Lord your God has put the land into your hands: go up and take it, as the Lord, the God of your fathers, has said to you; have no fear and do not be troubled.

Notwithstanding ye would not go up, but rebelled against the commandment of the LORD your God:

But In this thing ye did not believe Jehovah your God,

Who goes before you on your way, looking for a place where you may put up your tents, in fire by night, lighting up the way you are to go, and in a cloud by day.

But only Caleb, the son of Jephunneh, he will see it; and to him and to his children I will give the land over which his feet have gone, because he has been true to the Lord with all his heart.

But Joshua the son of Nun, which standeth before thee, he shall go in thither: encourage him: for he shall cause Israel to inherit it.

And your little children, who you thought shall become plunder, and your sons, who do not today know good or bad, shall themselves go there, and I will give it to them, and they shall take possession of it.

But as for you, turn you, and take your journey into the wilderness by the way of the Red sea.

“You answered me, ‘We have sinned against the Lord. We will go up and fight just as the Lord our God commanded us.’ Then each of you put on his weapons of war and thought it would be easy to go up into the hill country.

“But the Lord said to me, ‘Tell them: Don’t go up and fight, for I am not with you to keep you from being defeated by your enemies.’

So I spake unto you; and ye would not hear, but rebelled against the commandment of the LORD, and went presumptuously up into the hill.

And the Amorites, that dwelt in that hill-country, came out against you, and chased you, as bees do, and beat you down in Seir, even unto Hormah.

And ye returned and wept before the LORD; but the LORD would not hearken to your voice, nor give ear unto you.

And warn the people, saying: Ye shall go through the coasts of your brethren the children of Esau which dwell in Seir, and they shall be afraid of you: But take good heed unto yourselves

Which also were accounted giants, as the Anakims; but the Moabites call them Emims.

The Horims also dwelt in Seir beforetime; but the children of Esau succeeded them, when they had destroyed them from before them, and dwelt in their stead; as Israel did unto the land of his possession, which the LORD gave unto them.

When you come opposite the territory of the sons of Ammon, do not harass them nor provoke them, for I will not give you any of the land of the sons of Ammon as a possession, because I have given it to the sons of Lot as a possession.’

(That also is accounted a land of Rephaim: Rephaim dwelt therein aforetime; but the Ammonites call them Zamzummim,

A people great, and many, and tall, as the Anakims; but the LORD destroyed them before them; and they succeeded them, and dwelt in their stead:

This day will I begin to put the dread of thee and the fear of thee upon the nations that are under the whole heaven, who shall hear report of thee, and shall tremble, and be in anguish because of thee.

But Sihon king of Heshbon would not let us pass by him: for the LORD thy God hardened his spirit, and made his heart obstinate, that he might deliver him into thy hand, as appeareth this day.

But Jehovah our God gave him up before us; and we smote him, and his sons, and his whole people.

At that time we seized all his cities and put every one of them under divine judgment, including even the women and children; we left no survivors.

But you did not go near the Ammonites’ land, all along the bank of the Jabbok River, the cities of the hill country, or any place that the Lord our God had forbidden.

Next we set out on the route to Bashan, but King Og of Bashan and his whole army came out to meet us in battle at Edrei.

But the Lord said to me, ‘Do not fear him, for I have handed him over to you along with his whole army and his land. Do to him as you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who lived in Heshbon.’
