But and if ye will not do so, behold, ye sin against the
LORD: and be sure your sin will find you out. Build your cities
for your children and folds for your sheep, and see ye do that ye
have spoken. And the Children of Gad and of Ruben spake unto Moses
saying: thy servants will do as my lord commandeth. Our children,
our wives, substance and all our cattle shall remain here in the
cities of Gilead. But we thy servants will go all harnessed for
the war unto battle before the LORD, as my lord hath said. And
Moses commanded Eleazer the priest: and Iosua the son of Nun and
the ancient heads of the tribes of the children of Israel, and
said unto them: If the children of Gad and Ruben will go with you
over Iordan, all prepared to fight before the LORD: then when the
land is subdued unto you, give them the land of Gilead to possess,
but and if they will not go over with you in harness, then they
shall have their possessions among you in the land of Canaan. And
the children of Gad and Ruben answered saying: that which the LORD
hath said unto thy servants we will do. We will go harnessed
before the LORD into the land of Canaan, and the possession of our
inheritance shall be on this side the Iordan. And Moses gave unto
the children of Gad and of Ruben and unto half the tribe of
Manasse the son of Ioseph, the kingdom of Sehon king of the
Amorites, and the kingdom of Og king of Basan, the land that
longed unto the cities thereof in the coasts of the country round
about.
