CHAPTER 32
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;
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,
3
Ataroth, and Dibon, and Jazer, and Nimrah,
and Heshbon, and Elealeh, and Shebam, and Nebo, and Beon,
4
Even
the country which the L
ORD
smote before the congregation of Israel,
is
a land for cattle, and thy servants have cattle:
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.
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?
7
And wherefore discourage ye the heart of the children of Israel
