Numbers 32:29 - Prayer Tents

32The Reubenites and Gadites, who had very large herds and flocks, saw that the lands of Jazer and Gilead were suitable for livestock.H1121H7205H1121H1410H3966H6099H7227H4735H7200H776H3270H776H1568H4725H4725H4735 2So they came to Moses and Eleazar the priest and to the leaders of the community, and said,H1121H1410H1121H7205H935H559H4872H499H3548H5387H5712H559 3"Ataroth, Dibon, Jazer, Nimrah, Heshbon, Elealeh, Sebam, Nebo and Beon—H5852H1769H3270H5247H2809H500H7643H5015H1194 4the land the LORD subdued before the people of Israel—are suitable for livestock, and your servants have livestock.H776H3068H5221H6440H5712H3478H776H4735H5650H4735 5If we have found favor in your eyes," they said, "let this land be given to your servants as our possession. Do not make us cross the Jordan."H559H4672H2580H5869H776H5414H5650H272H5674H3383 6Moses said to the Gadites and Reubenites, "Should your own people go to war while you sit here?H4872H559H1121H1410H1121H7205H251H935H4421H3427 7Why do you discourage the Israelites from crossing over into the land the LORD has given them?H5106H5106H3820H1121H3478H5674H776H3068H5414 8This is what your fathers did when I sent them from Kadesh Barnea to look over the land.H6213H1H7971H6947H7200H776 9After they went up to the Valley of Eshkol and viewed the land, they discouraged the Israelites from entering the land the LORD had given them.H5927H5158H812H7200H776H5106H3820H1121H3478H935H776H3068H5414 10The LORD's anger was aroused that day and he swore this oath:H3068H639H2734H3117H7650H559 11'Because they have not followed me wholeheartedly, not one of those who were twenty years old or more when they came up out of Egypt will see the land I promised on oath to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob—H518H582H5927H4714H6242H8141H1121H4605H7200H127H7650H85H3327H3290H4390H310 12not one except Caleb son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite and Joshua son of Nun, for they followed the LORD wholeheartedly.'H3612H1121H3312H7074H3091H1121H5126H4390H310H3068 13The LORD's anger burned against Israel and he made them wander in the wilderness forty years, until the whole generation of those who had done evil in his sight was gone.H3068H639H2734H3478H5128H4057H705H8141H1755H6213H7451H5869H3068H8552 14"And here you are, a brood of sinners, standing in the place of your fathers and making the LORD even more angry with Israel.H6965H1H8635H2400H582H5595H2740H639H3068H3478 15If you turn away from following him, he will again leave all this people in the wilderness, and you will be the cause of their destruction."H7725H310H3254H3240H4057H7843H5971 16Then they came up to him and said, "We would like to build pens here for our livestock and cities for our women and children.H5066H559H1129H1448H6629H4735H5892H2945 17But we will arm ourselves for battle and go ahead of the Israelites until we have brought them to their place. Meanwhile our women and children will live in fortified cities, for protection from the inhabitants of the land.H587H2363H2502H6440H1121H3478H935H4725H2945H3427H4013H5892H6440H3427H776 18We will not return to our homes until all the Israelites have received their inheritance.H7725H1004H1121H3478H5157H376H5159 19We will not receive any inheritance with them on the other side of the Jordan, because our inheritance has come to us on the east side of the Jordan."H5157H5676H3383H1973H5159H935H5676H3383H4217 20Then Moses said to them, "If you will do this—if you will arm yourselves before the LORD for battleH4872H559H6213H1697H2502H6440H3068H4421 21and if all of you who are armed cross over the Jordan before the LORD until he has driven his enemies out before him—H5674H2502H5674H3383H6440H3068H3423H341H6440 22then when the land is subdued before the LORD, you may return and be free from your obligation to the LORD and to Israel. And this land will be your possession before the LORD.H776H3533H6440H3068H310H7725H5355H3068H3478H776H272H6440H3068 23"But if you fail to do this, you will be sinning against the LORD; and you may be sure that your sin will find you out.H6213H2398H3068H3045H2403H4672 24Build cities for your women and children, and pens for your flocks, but do what you have promised."H1129H5892H2945H1448H6792H6213H3318H6310 25The Gadites and Reubenites said to Moses, "We your servants will do as our lord commands.H1121H1410H1121H7205H559H4872H559H5650H6213H113H6680 26Our children and wives, our flocks and herds will remain here in the cities of Gilead.H2945H802H4735H929H5892H1568 27But your servants, every man who is armed for battle, will cross over to fight before the LORD, just as our lord says."H5650H5674H2502H6635H6440H3068H4421H113H1696 28Then Moses gave orders about them to Eleazar the priest and Joshua son of Nun and to the family heads of the Israelite tribes.H4872H6680H499H3548H3091H1121H5126H7218H1H4294H1121H3478 29He said to them, "If the Gadites and Reubenites, all those armed for battle, cross over the Jordan with you before the LORD, then when the land is subdued before you, you must give them the land of Gilead as their possession.H4872H559H1121H1410H1121H7205H5674H3383H2502H4421H6440H3068H776H3533H6440H5414H776H1568H272 30But if they do not cross over with you armed, they must accept their possession with you in Canaan."H5674H2502H270H8432H776H3667 31The Gadites and Reubenites answered, "Your servants will do what the LORD has said.H1121H1410H1121H7205H6030H559H3068H1696H5650H6213 32We will cross over before the LORD into Canaan armed, but the property we inherit will be on this side of the Jordan."H5168H5674H2502H6440H3068H776H3667H272H5159H5676H3383 33Then Moses gave to the Gadites, the Reubenites and the half-tribe of Manasseh son of Joseph the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites and the kingdom of Og king of Bashan—the whole land with its cities and the territory around them.H4872H5414H1121H1410H1121H7205H2677H7626H4519H1121H3130H4467H5511H4428H567H4467H5747H4428H1316H776H5892H1367H5892H776H5439 34The Gadites built up Dibon, Ataroth, Aroer,H1121H1410H1129H1769H5852H6177 35Atroth Shophan, Jazer, Jogbehah,H5855H3270H3011 36Beth Nimrah and Beth Haran as fortified cities, and built pens for their flocks.H1039H1028H4013H5892H1448H6629 37And the Reubenites rebuilt Heshbon, Elealeh and Kiriathaim,H1121H7205H1129H2809H500H7156 38as well as Nebo and Baal Meon (these names were changed) and Sibmah. They gave names to the cities they rebuilt.H5015H1186H8034H4142H7643H7121H8034H8034H5892H1129 39The descendants of Makir son of Manasseh went to Gilead, captured it and drove out the Amorites who were there.H1121H4353H1121H4519H3212H1568H3920H3423H567 40So Moses gave Gilead to the Makirites, the descendants of Manasseh, and they settled there.H4872H5414H1568H4353H1121H4519H3427 41Jair, a descendant of Manasseh, captured their settlements and called them Havvoth Jair.H2971H1121H4519H1980H3920H2333H7121H2334 42And Nobah captured Kenath and its surrounding settlements and called it Nobah after himself.H5025H1980H3920H7079H1323H7121H5025H8034
