Numbers 32:1-19

Now the children
<01121>
of Reuben
<07205>
and the children
<01121>
of Gad
<01410>
had a very
<03966>
great
<06099>
multitude
<07227>
of cattle
<04735>_:
and when they saw
<07200> (8799)
the land
<0776>
of Jazer
<03270>_,
and the land
<0776>
of Gilead
<01568>_,
that, behold, the place
<04725>
[was] a place
<04725>
for cattle
<04735>_;
The children
<01121>
of Gad
<01410>
and the children
<01121>
of Reuben
<07205>
came
<0935> (8799)
and spake
<0559> (8799)
unto Moses
<04872>_,
and to Eleazar
<0499>
the priest
<03548>_,
and unto the princes
<05387>
of the congregation
<05712>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Ataroth
<05852>_,
and Dibon
<01769>_,
and Jazer
<03270>_,
and Nimrah
<05247>_,
and Heshbon
<02809>_,
and Elealeh
<0500>_,
and Shebam
<07643>_,
and Nebo
<05015>_,
and Beon
<01194>_,
{Nimrah: also called, Bethnimrah} {Shebam: also called, Shibmah} {Beon: also called, Baalmeon}
[Even] the country
<0776>
which the LORD
<03068>
smote
<05221> (8689)
before
<06440>
the congregation
<05712>
of Israel
<03478>_,
[is] a land
<0776>
for cattle
<04735>_,
and thy servants
<05650>
have cattle
<04735>_:
Wherefore, said
<0559> (8799)
they, if we have found
<04672> (8804)
grace
<02580>
in thy sight
<05869>_,
let this land
<0776>
be given
<05414> (8714)
unto thy servants
<05650>
for a possession
<0272>_,
[and] bring us not over
<05674> (8686)
Jordan
<03383>_.
And Moses
<04872>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto the children
<01121>
of Gad
<01410>
and to the children
<01121>
of Reuben
<07205>_,
Shall your brethren
<0251>
go
<0935> (8799)
to war
<04421>_,
and shall ye sit
<03427> (8799)
here?
And wherefore discourage ye
<05106> (8686) (8675) <05106> (8799)
the heart
<03820>
of the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
from going over
<05674> (8800)
into the land
<0776>
which the LORD
<03068>
hath given
<05414> (8804)
them? {discourage: Heb. break}
Thus did
<06213> (8804)
your fathers
<01>_,
when I sent
<07971> (8800)
them from Kadeshbarnea
<06947>
to see
<07200> (8800)
the land
<0776>_.
For when they went up
<05927> (8799)
unto the valley
<05158>
of Eshcol
<0812>_,
and saw
<07200> (8799)
the land
<0776>_,
they discouraged
<05106> (8686)
the heart
<03820>
of the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_,
that they should not go
<0935> (8800)
into the land
<0776>
which the LORD
<03068>
had given
<05414> (8804)
them.
And the LORD'S
<03068>
anger
<0639>
was kindled
<02734> (8799)
the same time
<03117>_,
and he sware
<07650> (8735)_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Surely
<0518>
none of the men
<0582>
that came up
<05927> (8802)
out of Egypt
<04714>_,
from twenty
<06242>
years
<08141>
old
<01121>
and upward
<04605>_,
shall see
<07200> (8799)
the land
<0127>
which I sware
<07650> (8738)
unto Abraham
<085>_,
unto Isaac
<03327>_,
and unto Jacob
<03290>_;
because they have not wholly
<04390> (8765)
followed
<0310>
me: {wholly...: Heb. fulfilled after me}
Save Caleb
<03612>
the son
<01121>
of Jephunneh
<03312>
the Kenezite
<07074>_,
and Joshua
<03091>
the son
<01121>
of Nun
<05126>_:
for they have wholly
<04390> (8765)
followed
<0310>
the LORD
<03068>_.
And the LORD'S
<03068>
anger
<0639>
was kindled
<02734> (8799)
against Israel
<03478>_,
and he made them wander
<05128> (8686)
in the wilderness
<04057>
forty
<0705>
years
<08141>_,
until all the generation
<01755>_,
that had done
<06213> (8802)
evil
<07451>
in the sight
<05869>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
was consumed
<08552> (8800)_.
And, behold, ye are risen up
<06965> (8804)
in your fathers
<01>_'
stead, an increase
<08635>
of sinful
<02400>
men
<0582>_,
to augment
<05595> (8800)
yet the fierce
<02740>
anger
<0639>
of the LORD
<03068>
toward Israel
<03478>_.
For if ye turn away
<07725> (8799)
from after
<0310>
him, he will yet again
<03254> (8804)
leave
<03240> (8687)
them in the wilderness
<04057>_;
and ye shall destroy
<07843> (8765)
all this people
<05971>_.
And they came near
<05066> (8799)
unto him, and said
<0559> (8799)_,
We will build
<01129> (8799)
sheepfolds
<01448> <06629>
here for our cattle
<04735>_,
and cities
<05892>
for our little ones
<02945>_:
But we ourselves
<0587>
will go ready
<02363> (8803)
armed
<02502> (8735)
before
<06440>
the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_,
until we have brought
<0935> (8689)
them unto their place
<04725>_:
and our little ones
<02945>
shall dwell
<03427> (8804)
in the fenced
<04013>
cities
<05892>
because
<06440>
of the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
of the land
<0776>_.
We will not return
<07725> (8799)
unto our houses
<01004>_,
until the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
have inherited
<05157> (8692)
every man
<0376>
his inheritance
<05159>_.
For we will not inherit
<05157> (8799)
with them on yonder side
<05676>
Jordan
<03383>_,
or forward
<01973>_;
because our inheritance
<05159>
is fallen
<0935> (8804)
to us on this side
<05676>
Jordan
<03383>
eastward
<04217>_.
