The Tribes East of the Jordan
1
Now the Reubenites… and Gadites…, who had very large herds and flocks, surveyed the lands of Jazer - and Gilead, and they saw that the region was suitable for livestock.
לִבְנֵ֧י רְאוּבֵ֛ן וְלִבְנֵי־ גָ֖ד הָיָ֞ה מְאֹ֑ד עָצ֣וּם וּמִקְנֶ֣ה׀ רַ֗ב וַיִּרְא֞וּ אֶת־ אֶ֤רֶץ יַעְזֵר֙ וְאֶת־ אֶ֣רֶץ גִּלְעָ֔ד וְהִנֵּ֥ה הַמָּק֖וֹם מְק֥וֹם מִקְנֶֽה׃ liḇ·nê rə·’ū·ḇên wə·liḇ·nê- ḡāḏ hā·yāh mə·’ōḏ ‘ā·ṣūm ū·miq·neh raḇ way·yir·’ū ’eṯ- ’e·reṣ ya‘·zêr wə·’eṯ- ’e·reṣ gil·‘āḏ wə·hin·nêh ham·mā·qō·wm mə·qō·wm miq·neh — WLC · 1
XXXIIκαὶ ἴδον τὴν χώραν ᾿Ιαζὴρ καὶ τὴν χώραν Γαλαάδ, καὶ ἦν ὁ τόπος τόπος κτήνεσιν. — LXX Swete · 1
2
So the Gadites… and Reubenites… came to Moses,… Eleazar the priest,… and the leaders of the congregation, and said,
בְנֵֽי־ גָ֖ד וּבְנֵ֣י רְאוּבֵ֑ן וַיָּבֹ֥אוּ וַיֹּאמְר֤וּ אֶל־ מֹשֶׁה֙ וְאֶל־ אֶלְעָזָ֣ר הַכֹּהֵ֔ן וְאֶל־ נְשִׂיאֵ֥י הָעֵדָ֖ה לֵאמֹֽר׃ ḇə·nê- ḡāḏ ū·ḇə·nê rə·’ū·ḇên way·yā·ḇō·’ū way·yō·mə·rū ’el- mō·šeh wə·’el- ’el·‘ā·zār hak·kō·hên wə·’el- nə·śî·’ê hā·‘ê·ḏāh lê·mōr — WLC · 2

“Ataroth, Dibon, Jazer, Nimrah, Heshbon, Elealeh, Sebam, Nebo, and Beon,

4
- which [[YHWH|the LORD]] conquered before the congregation of Israel, are suitable for livestock…— and your servants have livestock.”

5
“If we have found favor in your sight,” they said, “let this land be given to your servants as a possession. Do not make us cross the Jordan.”
אִם־ מָצָ֤אנוּ חֵן֙ בְּעֵינֶ֔יךָ וַיֹּאמְר֗וּ הַזֹּ֛את הָאָ֧רֶץ יֻתַּ֞ן אֶת־ לַעֲבָדֶ֖יךָ לַאֲחֻזָּ֑ה אַל־ תַּעֲבִרֵ֖נוּ אֶת־ הַיַּרְדֵּֽן׃ ’im- mā·ṣā·nū ḥên bə·‘ê·ne·ḵā way·yō·mə·rū haz·zōṯ hā·’ā·reṣ yut·tan ’eṯ- la·‘ă·ḇā·ḏe·ḵā la·’ă·ḥuz·zāh ’al- ta·‘ă·ḇi·rê·nū ’eṯ- hay·yar·dên — WLC · 5

6
But Moses asked the Gadites… and Reubenites…, “Shall your brothers go to war while you sit here?
מֹשֶׁ֔ה וַיֹּ֣אמֶר לִבְנֵי־ גָ֖ד וְלִבְנֵ֣י רְאוּבֵ֑ן הַאַֽחֵיכֶ֗ם יָבֹ֙אוּ֙ לַמִּלְחָמָ֔ה וְאַתֶּ֖ם תֵּ֥שְׁבוּ פֹֽה׃ mō·šeh way·yō·mer liḇ·nê- ḡāḏ wə·liḇ·nê rə·’ū·ḇên ha·’a·ḥê·ḵem yā·ḇō·’ū lam·mil·ḥā·māh wə·’at·tem tê·šə·ḇū p̄ōh — WLC · 6

7
Why are you discouraging - the Israelites… from crossing into the land that [[YHWH|the LORD]] has given them?
וְלָ֣מָּה תְנוּאוּן אֶת־ לֵ֖ב בְּנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל מֵֽעֲבֹר֙ אֶל־ הָאָ֔רֶץ אֲשֶׁר־ יְהוָֽה׃ נָתַ֥ן לָהֶ֖ם wə·lām·māh ṯə·nū·ʾūn ’eṯ- lêḇ bə·nê yiś·rā·’êl mê·‘ă·ḇōr ’el- hā·’ā·reṣ ’ă·šer- Yah·weh nā·ṯan lā·hem — WLC · 7

8
This is what your fathers did when I sent them from Kadesh-barnea to inspect the land.

οὐχ οὕτως ἐποίησαν οἱ πατέρες ὑμῶν, ὅτε ἀπέστειλα αὐτοὺς ἐκ Καδὴς Βαρνὴ κατανοῆσαι τὴν γῆν; — LXX Swete · 8
9
For when [your fathers] went up to the Valley of Eshcol and saw the land, they discouraged - the Israelites… from entering… the land that [[YHWH|the LORD]] had given them.
וַֽיַּעֲל֞וּ עַד־ נַ֣חַל אֶשְׁכּ֗וֹל וַיִּרְאוּ֙ אֶת־ הָאָ֔רֶץ וַיָּנִ֕יאוּ אֶת־ לֵ֖ב בְּנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל לְבִלְתִּי־ בֹא֙ אֶל־ הָאָ֔רֶץ אֲשֶׁר־ יְהוָֽה׃ נָתַ֥ן לָהֶ֖ם way·ya·‘ă·lū ‘aḏ- na·ḥal ’eš·kō·wl way·yir·’ū ’eṯ- hā·’ā·reṣ way·yā·nî·’ū ’eṯ- lêḇ bə·nê yiś·rā·’êl lə·ḇil·tî- ḇō ’el- hā·’ā·reṣ ’ă·šer- Yah·weh nā·ṯan lā·hem — WLC · 9

10
So the anger of [[YHWH|the LORD]] was kindled that day, and He swore an oath, saying,
אַ֥ף יְהוָ֖ה וַיִּֽחַר־ הַה֑וּא בַּיּ֣וֹם וַיִּשָּׁבַ֖ע לֵאמֹֽר׃ ’ap̄ Yah·weh way·yi·ḥar- ha·hū bay·yō·wm way·yiš·šā·ḇa‘ lê·mōr — WLC · 10

11
‘Because they did not follow Me wholeheartedly, not one of the men twenty years of age… or older who came out of Egypt will see the land that I swore to give Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob—

12
not one except Caleb son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite and Joshua son of Nun— because they did follow [[YHWH|the LORD]] wholeheartedly.’
בִּלְתִּ֞י כָּלֵ֤ב בֶּן־ יְפֻנֶּה֙ הַקְּנִזִּ֔י וִיהוֹשֻׁ֖עַ בִּן־ נ֑וּן כִּ֥י אַחֲרֵ֥י יְהוָֽה׃ מִלְא֖וּ bil·tî kā·lêḇ ben- yə·p̄un·neh haq·qə·niz·zî wî·hō·wō·šu·a‘ bin- nūn kî ’a·ḥă·rê Yah·weh mil·’ū — WLC · 12
πλὴν Χαλὲβ υἱὸς ᾿Ιεφοννὴ ὁ διακεχωρισμένος, καὶ Ἰησοῦς ὁ τοῦ Ναυή, ὅτι συνεπηκολούθησεν ὀπίσω κυρίου. — LXX Swete · 12
13
The anger of [[YHWH|the LORD]] burned against Israel, and He made them wander in the wilderness forty years, until the whole generation who had done evil in [His] sight was gone.
אַ֤ף יְהוָה֙ וַיִּֽחַר־ בְּיִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל וַיְנִעֵם֙ בַּמִּדְבָּ֔ר אַרְבָּעִ֖ים שָׁנָ֑ה עַד־ כָּל־ הַדּ֔וֹר הָעֹשֶׂ֥ה הָרַ֖ע יְהוָֽה׃ בְּעֵינֵ֥י תֹּם֙ ’ap̄ Yah·weh way·yi·ḥar- bə·yiś·rā·’êl way·ni·‘êm bam·miḏ·bār ’ar·bā·‘îm šā·nāh ‘aḏ- kāl- had·dō·wr hā·‘ō·śeh hā·ra‘ Yah·weh bə·‘ê·nê tōm — WLC · 13

14
Now behold, you, a brood of sinners, have risen up in place of your fathers to further stoke… the burning anger of [[YHWH|the LORD]] against Israel.

15
For if you turn away from following Him, He will once again… leave this people in the wilderness, and you will be the cause of their destruction…”

16
Then [the Gadites and Reubenites] approached [Moses] and said, “We want to build sheepfolds… here for our livestock and cities for our little ones.

17
But we will arm ourselves and be ready to go ahead of the Israelites… until - we have brought them into their place. Meanwhile, our little ones will remain in the fortified cities for protection from the inhabitants of the land.

18
We will not return to our homes until every Israelite… has taken possession of his inheritance.

19
Yet we will not have an inheritance with them across the Jordan and beyond, because… our inheritance has come to us on the east side of the Jordan.”

20
Moses replied -, “If you will do - this— if you will arm yourselves before [[YHWH|the LORD]] for battle,
מֹשֶׁ֔ה וַיֹּ֤אמֶר אֲלֵיהֶם֙ אִֽם־ תַּעֲשׂ֖וּן אֶת־ הַדָּבָ֣ר הַזֶּ֑ה אִם־ תֵּחָֽלְצ֛וּ לִפְנֵ֥י יְהוָ֖ה לַמִּלְחָמָֽה׃ mō·šeh way·yō·mer ’ă·lê·hem ’im- ta·‘ă·śūn ’eṯ- had·dā·ḇār haz·zeh ’im- tê·ḥā·lə·ṣū lip̄·nê Yah·weh lam·mil·ḥā·māh — WLC · 20

21
and if every one of your armed men crosses the Jordan before [[YHWH|the LORD]], until He has driven His enemies out before Him,
כָּל־ חָל֛וּץ אֶת־ וְעָבַ֨ר לָכֶ֧ם הַיַּרְדֵּ֖ן לִפְנֵ֣י יְהוָ֑ה עַ֧ד הוֹרִישׁ֛וֹ אֶת־ אֹיְבָ֖יו מִפָּנָֽיו׃ kāl- ḥā·lūṣ ’eṯ- wə·‘ā·ḇar lā·ḵem hay·yar·dên lip̄·nê Yah·weh ‘aḏ hō·w·rî·šōw ’eṯ- ’ō·yə·ḇāw mip·pā·nāw — WLC · 21

22
then when the land is subdued before [[YHWH|the LORD]], you may return and be free of obligation to [[YHWH|the LORD]] and to Israel. And this land will belong to you as a possession before [[YHWH|the LORD]].

23
But if you do not do this, you will certainly sin against [[YHWH|the LORD]]— and be assured that your sin will find you out. -

24
Build cities for your little ones and folds for your flocks, but do what you have promised…”

25
The Gadites… and Reubenites… said to Moses,… “Your servants will do just as our lord commands.

Our children, our wives, our livestock, and all our animals will remain here in the cities of Gilead.

27
But your servants are equipped for war, and every man will cross over to the battle before [[YHWH|the LORD]], just as our lord says.”

So Moses gave orders about them to Eleazar the priest, to Joshua son of Nun, and to the family leaders of the tribes vvv of Israel.

And Moses said to them, “If the Gadites… and Reubenites… cross the Jordan with you -, with every man armed for battle before [[YHWH|the LORD]], and the land is subdued before you, then you are to give them the land of Gilead as a possession.

30
But if they do not arm themselves [and] go across with you, then they must accept their possession among you in the land of Canaan.”
