And saidh559h8799 unto them, Ye have kepth8104h8804 all that Mosesh4872 the servanth5650 of the LORDh3068 commandedh6680h8765 you, and have obeyedh8085h8799 my voiceh6963 in all that I commandedh6680h8765 you:

3

Ye have not lefth5800h8804 your brethrenh251 these manyh7227 daysh3117 unto this dayh3117, but have kepth8104h8804 the chargeh4931 of the commandmenth4687 of the LORDh3068 your Godh430.

4

And now the LORDh3068 your Godh430 hath given resth5117h8689 unto your brethrenh251, as he promisedh1696h8765 them: therefore now returnh6437h8798 ye, and geth3212h8798 you unto your tentsh168, and unto the landh776 of your possessionh272, which Mosesh4872 the servanth5650 of the LORDh3068 gaveh5414h8804 you on the other sideh5676 Jordanh3383.

5

But take diligenth3966 heedh8104h8798 to doh6213h8800 the commandmenth4687 and the lawh8451, which Mosesh4872 the servanth5650 of the LORDh3068 chargedh6680h8765 you, to loveh157h8800 the LORDh3068 your Godh430, and to walkh3212h8800 in all his waysh1870, and to keeph8104h8800 his commandmentsh4687, and to cleaveh1692h8800 unto him, and to serveh5647h8800 him with all your hearth3824 and with all your soulh5315.

So Joshuah3091 blessedh1288h8762 them, and sent them awayh7971h8762: and they wenth3212h8799 unto their tentsh168.

7

Now to the one halfh2677 of the tribeh7626 of Manassehh4519 Mosesh4872 had givenh5414h8804 possession in Bashanh1316: but unto the other halfh2677 thereof gaveh5414h8804 Joshuah3091 amongh5973 their brethrenh251 on this sideh5676 Jordanh3383 westwardh3220.

And when they cameh935h8799 unto the bordersh1552 of Jordanh3383, that are in the landh776 of Canaanh3667, the childrenh1121 of Reubenh7205 and the childrenh1121 of Gadh1410 and the halfh2677 tribeh7626 of Manassehh4519 builth1129h8799 there an altarh4196 by Jordanh3383, a greath1419 altarh4196 to see toh4758.

11

And the childrenh1121 of Israelh3478 heardh8085h8799 sayh559h8800, Behold, the childrenh1121 of Reubenh7205 and the childrenh1121 of Gadh1410 and the halfh2677 tribeh7626 of Manassehh4519 have builth1129h8804 an altarh4196 over againsth4136 the landh776 of Canaanh3667, in the bordersh1552 of Jordanh3383, at the passageh5676 of the childrenh1121 of Israelh3478.

12

And when the childrenh1121 of Israelh3478 heardh8085h8799 of it , the whole congregationh5712 of the childrenh1121 of Israelh3478 gathered themselves togetherh6950h8735 at Shilohh7887, to go uph5927h8800 to warh6635 against them.

13

And the childrenh1121 of Israelh3478 senth7971h8799 unto the childrenh1121 of Reubenh7205, and to the childrenh1121 of Gadh1410, and to the halfh2677 tribeh7626 of Manassehh4519, into the landh776 of Gileadh1568, Phinehash6372 the sonh1121 of Eleazarh499 the priesth3548,

14

And with him tenh6235 princesh5387, of eachh259h259 chiefh5387h5387 househ1004 a princeh1 throughout all the tribesh4294 of Israelh3478; and each oneh376 was an headh7218 of the househ1004 of their fathersh1 among the thousandsh505 of Israelh3478. chief...: Heb. house of the father

16

Thus saithh559h8804 the whole congregationh5712 of the LORDh3068, What trespassh4604 is this that ye have committedh4603h8804 against the Godh430 of Israelh3478, to turn awayh7725h8800 this dayh3117 from followingh310 the LORDh3068, in that ye have buildedh1129h8800 you an altarh4196, that ye might rebelh4775h8800 this dayh3117 against the LORDh3068?

17

Is the iniquityh5771 of Peorh6465 too littleh4592 for us, from which we are not cleansedh2891h8694 until this dayh3117, although there was a plagueh5063 in the congregationh5712 of the LORDh3068,

18

But that ye must turn awayh7725h8799 this dayh3117 from followingh310 the LORDh3068? and it will be, seeing ye rebelh4775h8799 to dayh3117 against the LORDh3068, that to morrowh4279 he will be wrothh7107h8799 with the whole congregationh5712 of Israelh3478.

19

Notwithstandingh389, if the landh776 of your possessionh272 be uncleanh2931, then pass ye overh5674h8798 unto the landh776 of the possessionh272 of the LORDh3068, wherein the LORD'Sh3068 tabernacleh4908 dwellethh7931h8804, and take possessionh270h8734 amongh8432 us: but rebelh4775h8799 not against the LORDh3068, norh408 rebelh4775h8799 against us, in buildingh1129h8800 you an altarh4196 besideh1107 the altarh4196 of the LORDh3068 our Godh430.

20

Did not Achanh5912 the sonh1121 of Zerahh2226 commith4603h8804 a trespassh4604 in the accursed thingh2764, and wrathh7110 fellh1961h8804 on all the congregationh5712 of Israelh3478? and that manh376 perishedh1478h8804 not aloneh259 in his iniquityh5771.

21

Then the childrenh1121 of Reubenh7205 and the childrenh1121 of Gadh1410 and the halfh2677 tribeh7626 of Manassehh4519 answeredh6030h8799, and saidh1696h8762 unto the headsh7218 of the thousandsh505 of Israelh3478,

22

The LORDh3068 Godh410 of godsh430, the LORDh3068 Godh410 of godsh430, he knowethh3045h8802, and Israelh3478 he shall knowh3045h8799; if it be in rebellionh4777, or if in transgressionh4604 against the LORDh3068, (saveh3467h8686 us not this dayh3117,)

23

That we have builth1129h8800 us an altarh4196 to turnh7725h8800 from followingh310 the LORDh3068, or if to offerh5927h8687 thereon burnt offeringh5930 or meat offeringh4503, or if to offerh6213h8800 peaceh8002 offeringsh2077 thereon, let the LORDh3068 himself requireh1245h8762 it ;

24

And if we have not rather doneh6213h8804 it for fearh1674 of this thingh1697, sayingh559h8800, In time to comeh4279 your childrenh1121 might speakh559h8799 unto our childrenh1121, sayingh559h8800, What have ye to do with the LORDh3068 Godh430 of Israelh3478? In time...: Heb. To morrow

25

For the LORDh3068 hath madeh5414h8804 Jordanh3383 a borderh1366 between us and you, ye childrenh1121 of Reubenh7205 and childrenh1121 of Gadh1410; ye have no parth2506 in the LORDh3068: so shall your childrenh1121 makeh7673 our childrenh1121 ceaseh7673h8689 fromh1115 fearingh3372h8800 the LORDh3068.

26

Therefore we saidh559h8799, Let us now prepareh6213h8799 to buildh1129h8800 us an altarh4196, not for burnt offeringh5930, nor for sacrificeh2077:

27

But that it may be a witnessh5707 between us, and you, and our generationsh1755 afterh310 us, that we might doh5647h8800 the serviceh5656 of the LORDh3068 beforeh6440 him with our burnt offeringsh5930, and with our sacrificesh2077, and with our peace offeringsh8002; that your childrenh1121 may not sayh559h8799 to our childrenh1121 in time to comeh4279, Ye have no parth2506 in the LORDh3068.

28

Therefore saidh559h8799 we, that it shall be, when they should so sayh559h8799 to us or to our generationsh1755 in time to comeh4279, that we may sayh559h8804 again , Beholdh7200h8798 the patternh8403 of the altarh4196 of the LORDh3068, which our fathersh1 madeh6213h8804, not for burnt offeringsh5930, nor for sacrificesh2077; but it is a witnessh5707 between us and you.

29

God forbidh2486 that we should rebelh4775h8800 against the LORDh3068, and turnh7725h8800 this dayh3117 from followingh310 the LORDh3068, to buildh1129h8800 an altarh4196 for burnt offeringsh5930, for meat offeringsh4503, or for sacrificesh2077, beside the altarh4196 of the LORDh3068 our Godh430 that is beforeh6440 his tabernacleh4908.

30

And when Phinehash6372 the priesth3548, and the princesh5387 of the congregationh5712 and headsh7218 of the thousandsh505 of Israelh3478 which were with him, heardh8085h8799 the wordsh1697 that the childrenh1121 of Reubenh7205 and the childrenh1121 of Gadh1410 and the childrenh1121 of Manassehh4519 spakeh1696h8765, it pleasedh3190h8799h5869 them. pleased...: Heb. was good in their eyes

31

And Phinehash6372 the sonh1121 of Eleazarh499 the priesth3548 saidh559h8799 unto the childrenh1121 of Reubenh7205, and to the childrenh1121 of Gadh1410, and to the childrenh1121 of Manassehh4519, This dayh3117 we perceiveh3045h8804 that the LORDh3068 is amongh8432 us, because ye have not committedh4603h8804 this trespassh4604 against the LORDh3068: nowh227 ye have deliveredh5337h8689 the childrenh1121 of Israelh3478 out of the handh3027 of the LORDh3068. now: Heb. then

32

And Phinehash6372 the sonh1121 of Eleazarh499 the priesth3548, and the princesh5387, returnedh7725h8799 from the childrenh1121 of Reubenh7205, and from the childrenh1121 of Gadh1410, out of the landh776 of Gileadh1568, unto the landh776 of Canaanh3667, to the childrenh1121 of Israelh3478, and broughth7725 them wordh1697 againh7725h8686.

33

And the thingh1697 pleasedh3190h8799h5869 the childrenh1121 of Israelh3478; and the childrenh1121 of Israelh3478 blessedh1288h8762 Godh430, and did not intendh559h8804 to go uph5927h8800 against them in battleh6635, to destroyh7843h8763 the landh776 wherein the childrenh1121 of Reubenh7205 and Gadh1410 dwelth3427h8802.

34

And the childrenh1121 of Reubenh7205 and the childrenh1121 of Gadh1410 calledh7121h8799 the altarh4196 Ed : for it shall be a witnessh5707 between us that the LORDh3068 is Godh430. Ed: that is, A witness
