1 Now the sons of Reuben and the sons of Gad had an exceedingly large number of livestock. So when they saw the land of Jazer and the land of Gilead, that it was indeed a place suitable for livestock,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;1 The tribes of Reuben and Gad had a large number of livestock. They saw that the regions of Jazer and Gilead were a good place for livestock.1 Now the children of Reuben and the children of Gad had a very great multitude of livestock: and when they saw the land of Jazer, and the land of Gilead, that behold, the place was a place for livestock;1 And the children of Reuben and the children of Gad had much cattle, a very great multitude; and they saw the land of Jaazer, and the land of Gilead, and behold, the place was a place for cattle.
2 the sons of Gad and the sons of Reuben came and spoke to Moses and to Eleazar the priest and to the leaders of the congregation, saying,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,2 So they came to Moses, the priest Eleazar, and the leaders of the community, and said to them,2 the children of Gad and the children of Reuben came and spoke to Moses, and to Eleazar the priest, and to the princes of the congregation, saying,2 And the children of Gad and the children of Reuben came and spoke to Moses, and to Eleazar the priest, and to the princes of the assembly, saying,

4 the land which the LORD conquered before the congregation of Israel, is a land for livestock, and your servants have livestock."4 Even the country which the LORD smote before the congregation of Israel, is a land for cattle, and thy servants have cattle:4 the land that the LORD won for the community of Israel, is a good place for livestock. Gentlemen, we have livestock.4 the land which Yahweh struck before the congregation of Israel, is a land for livestock; and your servants have livestock."4 the country that Jehovah smote before the assembly of Israel, is a land for cattle, and thy servants have cattle;
5 They said, "If we have found favor in your sight, let this land be given to your servants as a possession; do not take us across the Jordan."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.5 Please give us this land as our property. Don't make us cross the Jordan River."5 They said, "If we have found favor in your sight, let this land be given to your servants for a possession; don't bring us over the Jordan."5 and they said, If we have found favour in thine eyes, let this land be given to thy servants for a possession: bring us not over the Jordan.

6 But Moses said to the sons of Gad and to the sons of Reuben, "Shall your brothers go to war while you yourselves sit here?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?6 Moses asked the tribes of Gad and Reuben, "Are you going to stay here while the rest of the Israelites go to war?6 Moses said to the children of Gad, and to the children of Reuben, "Shall your brothers go to the war, and shall you sit here?6 And Moses said to the children of Gad, and to the children of Reuben, Shall your brethren go to war, and shall ye abide here?
7 "Now why are you discouraging the sons of Israel from crossing over into the land which the LORD has given them?7 And wherefore discourage ye the heart of the children of Israel from going over into the land which the LORD hath given them?7 That might discourage them from entering the land the LORD has given them.7 Why do you discourage the heart of the children of Israel from going over into the land which Yahweh has given them?7 And why do ye discourage the children of Israel from going over into the land that Jehovah has given them?
8 "This is what your fathers did when I sent them from Kadesh-barnea to see the land.8 Thus did your fathers, when I sent them from Kadeshbarnea to see the land.8 That's what your ancestors did when I sent them from Kadesh Barnea to take a look at the land.8 Your fathers did so when I sent them from Kadesh Barnea to see the land.8 Thus did your fathers, when I sent them from Kadesh-barnea to see the land:
9 "For when they went up to the valley of Eshcol and saw the land, they discouraged the sons of Israel so that they did not go into the land which the LORD had given them.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.9 They went as far as the Eshcol Valley and saw the land. But then they discouraged the rest of the Israelites from entering the land that the LORD had given them.9 For when they went up to 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 Yahweh had given them.9 they went up to the valley of Eshcol, and saw the land, and discouraged the children of Israel, that they should not go into the land that Jehovah had given them.
10 "So the LORD'S anger burned in that day, and He swore, saying,10 And the LORD's anger was kindled the same time, and he sware, saying,10 That day the LORD became angry and swore this oath,10 Yahweh's anger was kindled in that day, and he swore, saying,10 And Jehovah's anger was kindled the same time, and he swore, saying,

11 'None of the men who came up from Egypt, from twenty years old and upward, shall see the land which I swore to Abraham, to Isaac and to Jacob; for they did not follow Me fully,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:11 'None of the people 20 years old or older, who came from Egypt, will see the land I promised Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob with an oath. This is because they didn't wholeheartedly follow me.'11 'Surely none of the men who came up out of Egypt, from twenty years old and upward, shall see the land which I swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob; because they have not wholly followed me:11 If the men that came up out of Egypt, from twenty years old and upward, shall see the land that I swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob! for they have not wholly followed me;
12 except Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite and Joshua the son of Nun, for they have followed the LORD fully.'12 Save Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenezite, and Joshua the son of Nun: for they have wholly followed the LORD.12 Only Caleb (son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite) and Joshua (son of Nun) will get to see the land. This is because they wholeheartedly followed the LORD.12 except Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite, and Joshua the son of Nun; because they have followed Yahweh completely.'12 save Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite, and Joshua the son of Nun; for they have wholly followed Jehovah.
13 "So the LORD'S anger burned against Israel, and He made them wander in the wilderness forty years, until the entire generation of those who had done evil in the sight of the LORD was destroyed.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.13 Since the LORD was angry with the Israelites, he made them wander in the desert for 40 years until the whole generation of those who had done evil in the LORD's presence was gone.13 Yahweh's anger was kindled against Israel, and he made them wander back and forth in the wilderness forty years, until all the generation, who had done evil in the sight of Yahweh, was consumed.13 And Jehovah's anger was kindled against Israel, and he made them wander in the wilderness forty years, until the whole generation was consumed that had done evil in the eyes of Jehovah.
14 "Now behold, you have risen up in your fathers' place, a brood of sinful men, to add still more to the burning anger of the LORD against Israel.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.14 "You're just like your parents! You're a bunch of sinners trying to make the LORD angry with Israel again.14 "Behold, you have risen up in your fathers' place, an increase of sinful men, to augment yet the fierce anger of Yahweh toward Israel.14 And behold, ye are risen up in your fathers' stead, a progeny of sinful men, to augment yet the fierce anger of Jehovah toward Israel.
15 "For if you turn away from following Him, He will once more abandon them in the wilderness, and you will destroy all these people."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.15 If you turn away from him, he will abandon all these people in the desert. You would be responsible for their destruction."15 For if you turn away from after him, he will yet again leave them in the wilderness; and you will destroy all this people."15 If ye turn away from after him, he will yet again leave them in the wilderness; and ye shall destroy all this people.

16 Then they came near to him and said, "We will build here sheepfolds for our livestock and cities for our little ones;16 And they came near unto him, and said, We will build sheepfolds here for our cattle, and cities for our little ones:16 Then the tribes of Gad and Reuben came up to Moses and said, "Allow us to build stone fences for our livestock and cities for our families here.16 They came near to him, and said, "We will build sheepfolds here for our livestock, and cities for our little ones:16 And they drew near to him, and said, We will build sheepfolds here for our cattle, and cities for our little ones;
17 but we ourselves will be armed ready to go before the sons of Israel, until we have brought them to their place, while our little ones live in the fortified cities because of the inhabitants of the land.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.17 Then we'll be ready [to march] in battle formation?to march[ ahead quickly."> ahead of the other Israelites until we have brought them to their land. Meanwhile our families will live in walled cities, safe from the other people who live here.]17 but we ourselves will be ready armed to go before the children of Israel, until we have brought them to their place: and our little ones shall dwell in the fortified cities because of the inhabitants of the land.17 but we ourselves will go with diligence armed before the children of Israel, until we have brought them to their place; and our little ones shall dwell in the strong cities because of the inhabitants of the land.
18 "We will not return to our homes until every one of the sons of Israel has possessed his inheritance.18 We will not return unto our houses, until the children of Israel have inherited every man his inheritance.18 We will not return to our homes until every Israelite has received his own land.18 We will not return to our houses, until the children of Israel have inherited every man his inheritance.18 We will not return to our houses, until the children of Israel have inherited each one his inheritance.
19 "For we will not have an inheritance with them on the other side of the Jordan and beyond, because our inheritance has fallen to us on this side of the Jordan toward the east."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.19 We won't take possession of any land on the other side of the Jordan River, to the west and beyond. We already have our land here, east of the Jordan."19 For we will not inherit with them on the other side of the Jordan, and forward; because our inheritance is fallen to us on this side of the Jordan eastward."19 For we will not inherit with them on yonder side the Jordan, and further, because our inheritance is fallen to us on this side the Jordan eastward.
20 So Moses said to them, "If you will do this, if you will arm yourselves before the LORD for the war,20 And Moses said unto them, If ye will do this thing, if ye will go armed before the LORD to war,20 Moses answered, "Do what you have said. In the LORD's presence have all your armed men get ready for battle.20 Moses said to them, "If you will do this thing, if you will arm yourselves to go before Yahweh to the war,20 And Moses said to them, If ye do this thing, if ye arm yourselves before Jehovah for war,

21 and all of you armed men cross over the Jordan before the LORD until He has driven His enemies out from before Him,21 And will go all of you armed over Jordan before the LORD, until he hath driven out his enemies from before him,21 Have them cross the Jordan, and fight until the LORD forces out his enemies21 and every armed man of you will pass over the Jordan before Yahweh, until he has driven out his enemies from before him,21 and all of you that are armed go over the Jordan before Jehovah, until he have dispossessed his enemies from before him,
22 and the land is subdued before the LORD, then afterward you shall return and be free of obligation toward the LORD and toward Israel, and this land shall be yours for a possession before the LORD.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.22 and the land is conquered. Then you may come back. You will have fulfilled your military duty to the LORD and Israel. This land will be your own property in the LORD's presence.22 and the land is subdued before Yahweh; then afterward you shall return, and be guiltless towards Yahweh, and towards Israel; and this land shall be to you for a possession before Yahweh.22 and the land is subdued before Jehovah, and afterwards ye return, ye shall be guiltless toward Jehovah and toward Israel, and this land shall be your possession before Jehovah.
23 "But if you will not do so, behold, you have sinned against the LORD, and be sure your sin will find you out.23 But if ye will not do so, behold, ye have sinned against the LORD: and be sure your sin will find you out.23 "If you don't do all these things, you will be sinning against the LORD. You can be sure that you will be punished for your sin.23 "But if you will not do so, behold, you have sinned against Yahweh; and be sure your sin will find you out.23 But if ye do not do so, behold, ye have sinned against Jehovah, and be sure your sin will find you out.
24 "Build yourselves cities for your little ones, and sheepfolds for your sheep, and do what you have promised."24 Build you cities for your little ones, and folds for your sheep; and do that which hath proceeded out of your mouth.24 Build cities for your families and stone fences for your flocks, but do what you have promised."24 Build cities for your little ones, and folds for your sheep; and do that which has proceeded out of your mouth."24 Build yourselves cities for your little ones, and folds for your flocks, and do that which has gone out of your mouth.
25 The sons of Gad and the sons of Reuben spoke to Moses, saying, "Your servants will do just as my lord commands.25 And the children of Gad and the children of Reuben spake unto Moses, saying, Thy servants will do as my lord commandeth.25 Then the tribes of Gad and Reuben said to Moses, "Sir, we will do as you command.25 The children of Gad and the children of Reuben spoke to Moses, saying, "Your servants will do as my lord commands.25 And the children of Gad and the children of Reuben spoke to Moses, saying, Thy servants will do as my lord commands.
