Numbers - Chapter: 32


32:1	Now the children of Reuben and the children of Gad had a very great multitude of cattle: and when they saw the land of Jazer, and the land of Gilead, that, behold, the place was a place for cattle;
32:2	The children of Gad and the children of Reuben came and spake unto Moses, and to Eleazar the priest, and unto the princes of the congregation, saying,
32:3	Ataroth, and Dibon, and Jazer, and Nimrah, and Heshbon, and Elealeh, and Shebam, and Nebo, and Beon,
32:4	Even the country which the LORD smote before the congregation of Israel, is a land for cattle, and thy servants have cattle:
32:5	Wherefore, said they, if we have found grace in thy sight, let this land be given unto thy servants for a possession, and bring us not over Jordan.
32:6	And Moses said unto the children of Gad and to the children of Reuben, Shall your brethren go to war, and shall ye sit here?
32:7	And wherefore discourage ye the heart of the children of Israel from going over into the land which the LORD hath given them?
32:8	Thus did your fathers, when I sent them from Kadeshbarnea to see the land.
32:9	For when they went up unto the valley of Eshcol, and saw the land, they discouraged the heart of the children of Israel, that they should not go into the land which the LORD had given them.
32:10	And the LORD'S anger was kindled the same time, and he sware, saying,
32:11	Surely none of the men that came up out of Egypt, from twenty years old and upward, shall see the land which I sware unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob; because they have not wholly followed me:
32:12	Save Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenezite, and Joshua the son of Nun: for they have wholly followed the LORD.
32:13	And the LORD'S anger was kindled against Israel, and he made them wander in the wilderness forty years, until all the generation, that had done evil in the sight of the LORD, was consumed.
32:14	And, behold, ye are risen up in your fathers' stead, an increase of sinful men, to augment yet the fierce anger of the LORD toward Israel.
32:15	For if ye turn away from after him, he will yet again leave them in the wilderness; and ye shall destroy all this people.
32:16	And they came near unto him, and said, We will build sheepfolds here for our cattle, and cities for our little ones:
32:17	But we ourselves will go ready armed before the children of Israel, until we have brought them unto their place: and our little ones shall dwell in the fenced cities because of the inhabitants of the land.
32:18	We will not return unto our houses, until the children of Israel have inherited every man his inheritance.
32:19	For we will not inherit with them on yonder side Jordan, or forward; because our inheritance is fallen to us on this side Jordan eastward.
32:20	And Moses said unto them, If ye will do this thing, if ye will go armed before the LORD to war,
32:21	And will go all of you armed over Jordan before the LORD, until he hath driven out his enemies from before him,
32:22	And the land be subdued before the LORD: then afterward ye shall return, and be guiltless before the LORD, and before Israel; and this land shall be your possession before the LORD.
32:23	But if ye will not do so, behold, ye have sinned against the LORD: and be sure your sin will find you out.
32:24	Build you cities for your little ones, and folds for your sheep; and do that which hath proceeded out of your mouth.
32:25	And the children of Gad and the children of Reuben spake unto Moses, saying, Thy servants will do as my lord commandeth.
32:26	Our little ones, our wives, our flocks, and all our cattle, shall be there in the cities of Gilead:
32:27	But thy servants will pass over, every man armed for war, before the LORD to battle, as my lord saith.
32:28	So concerning them Moses commanded Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun, and the chief fathers of the tribes of the children of Israel:
32:29	And Moses said unto them, If the children of Gad and the children of Reuben will pass with you over Jordan, every man armed to battle, before the LORD, and the land shall be subdued before you; then ye shall give them the land of Gilead for a possession:
32:30	But if they will not pass over with you armed, they shall have possessions among you in the land of Canaan.
32:31	And the children of Gad and the children of Reuben answered, saying, As the LORD hath said unto thy servants, so will we do.
32:32	We will pass over armed before the LORD into the land of Canaan, that the possession of our inheritance on this side Jordan may be ours.
32:33	And Moses gave unto them, even to the children of Gad, and to the children of Reuben, and unto half the tribe of Manasseh the son of Joseph, the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites, and the kingdom of Og king of Bashan, the land, with the cities thereof in the coasts, even the cities of the country round about.
32:34	And the children of Gad built Dibon, and Ataroth, and Aroer,
32:35	And Atroth, Shophan, and Jaazer, and Jogbehah,
32:36	And Bethnimrah, and Bethharan, fenced cities: and folds for sheep.
32:37	And the children of Reuben built Heshbon, and Elealeh, and Kirjathaim,
32:38	And Nebo, and Baalmeon, (their names being changed,) and Shibmah: and gave other names unto the cities which they builded.
32:39	And the children of Machir the son of Manasseh went to Gilead, and took it, and dispossessed the Amorite which was in it.
32:40	And Moses gave Gilead unto Machir the son of Manasseh; and he dwelt therein.
32:41	And Jair the son of Manasseh went and took the small towns thereof, and called them Havothjair.
32:42	And Nobah went and took Kenath, and the villages thereof, and called it Nobah, after his own name.


32:1	Nowe the children of Reuben, and the children of Gad had an exceeding great multitude of cattell: and they sawe the lande of Iazer, and the lande of Gilead, that it was an apt place for cattel.
32:2	Then the children of Gad, and the childre of Reuben came, and spake vnto Moses and to Eleazar the Priest, and vnto the princes of the Congregation, saying,
32:3	The land of Ataroth, and Dibon, and Iazer, and Nimrah, and Heshbon, and Elealeh, and Shebam, and Nebo, and Beon,
32:4	Which countrey the Lord smote before the Congregation of Israel, is a lande meete for cattell, and thy seruants haue cattell:
32:5	Wherefore, said they, if we haue foud grace in thy sight, let this lande be giuen vnto thy seruants for a possession, and bring vs not ouer Iorde.
32:6	And Moses said vnto the children of Gad, and to the children of Reuben, Shall your brethren goe to warre, and ye tary heere?
32:7	Wherefore now discourage ye the heart of the children of Israel, to goe ouer into the lande, which the Lord hath giuen them?
32:8	Thus did your fathers when I sent them from Kadesh-barnea to see the lande.
32:9	For when they went vp euen vnto the riuer of Eshcol, and sawe the land: they discouraged the heart of the childre of Israel, that they woulde not goe into the lande, which the Lord had giuen them.
32:10	And the Lordes wrath was kindled the same day, and he did sweare, saying,
32:11	None of the men that came out of Egypt from twentie yeere olde and aboue, shall see the land for the which I sware vnto Abraham, to Izhak, and to Iaakob, because they haue not wholly followed me:
32:12	Except Caleb the sonne of Iephunneh the Kenesite, and Ioshua the sonne of Nun: for they haue constantly followed the Lord.
32:13	And the Lord was very angry with Israel, and made them wander in the wildernesse fourty yeeres, vntill all the generation that had done euill in the sight of the Lord were consumed.
32:14	And behold, ye are risen vp in your fathers steade as an encrease of sinfull men, still to augment the fierce wrath of the Lord, toward Israel.
32:15	For if ye turne away from following him, he will yet againe leaue the people in the wildernesse, and ye shall destroy all this folke.
32:16	And they went neere to him, and said, We will builde sheepe foldes here for our sheepe, and for our cattell, and cities for our children.
32:17	But we our selues will be readie armed to go before the children of Israel, vntill we haue brought them vnto their place: but our childre shall dwell in the defenced cities, because of the inhabitants of the lande.
32:18	We will not returne vnto our houses, vntil the children of Israel haue inherited, euery man his inheritance.
32:19	Neither wil we inherite with them beyond Iorden and on that side, because our inheritance is fallen to vs on this side Iorden Eastwarde.
32:20	And Moses saide vnto them, If ye will doe this thing, and goe armed before the Lord to warre:
32:21	And will goe euery one of you in harnesse ouer Iorden before the Lord, vntill he hath cast out his enemies from his sight:
32:22	And vntill the land be subdued before the Lord, then ye shall returne and be innocent toward the Lord, and toward Israel: and this land shalbe your possession before the Lord.
32:23	But if ye will not doe so, beholde, ye haue sinned against the Lord, and be sure, that your sinne will finde you out.
32:24	Builde you then cities for your children and folds for your sheepe, and do that ye haue spoke.
32:25	Then the children of Gad and the children of Reuben spake vnto Moses, saying, Thy seruats will doe as my lorde commandeth:
32:26	Our childre, our wiues, our sheepe, and al our cattell shall remaine there in the cities of Gilead,
32:27	But thy seruants will goe euery one armed to warre before the Lord for to fight, as my lorde saith.
32:28	So concerning them, Moses commanded Eleazar the Priest, and Ioshua the sonne of Nun, and the chiefe fathers of the tribes of the children of Israel:
32:29	And Moses said vnto them, If the children of Gad, and the children of Reuben, will go with you ouer Iorden, all armed to fight before the Lord, then when the land is subdued before you, ye shall giue the the lad of Gilead for a possessio:
32:30	But if they will not goe ouer with you armed, then they shall haue their possessions amog you in the land of Canaan.
32:31	And the children of Gad, and the children of Reuben answered, saying, As the Lord hath said vnto thy seruants, so will we doe.
32:32	We will goe armed before the Lord into the lande of Canaan: that the possession of our inheritance may be to vs on this side Iorden.
32:33	So Moses gaue vnto them, euen to the children of Gad, and to the children of Reuben, and to halfe the tribe of Manasseh the sonne of Ioseph, the kingdome of Sihon King of the Amorites, and the kingdome of Og King of Bashan, the lande with the cities thereof and coastes, euen the cities of the countrey round about.
32:34	Then the children of Gad built Dibon, and Ataroth, and Aroer,
32:35	And Atroth, Shophan, and Iazer, and Iogbehah,
32:36	And Beth-nimrah, and Beth-haran, defenced cities: also sheepe foldes.
32:37	And the children of Reuben built Heshbon, and Elealeh, and Kiriathaim,
32:38	And Nebo, and Baal-meon, and turned their names, and Shibmah: and gaue other names vnto the cities which they built.
32:39	And the children of Machir the sonne of Manasseh went to Gilead, and tooke it, and put out the Amorites that dwelt therein.
32:40	Then Moses gaue Gilead vnto Machir the sonne of Manasseh, and he dwelt therein.
32:41	And Iair the sonne of Manasseh went and tooke the small townes thereof, and called them Hauoth Iair.
32:42	Also Nobah went and tooke Kenath, with the villages thereof and called it Nobah, after his owne name.
