16And they were living in Gilead in Bashan, in its small towns and in all the grass-land of Sirion as far as its limits.
17All these were listed under the names of their families, in the time of Jotham, king of Judah, and in the time of Jeroboam, king of Israel.
18There were forty-four thousand, seven hundred and sixty of the sons of Reuben and of the Gadites and of the half-tribe of Manasseh, all strong men, expert in the use of the body-cover, the sword, and the bow, and in the art of war, all able to take up arms.
19And they went to war against the Hagarites, with Jetur and Naphish and Nodab.
20And they were helped against them, so that the Hagarites, and those with them, were given into their power. For they sent up prayers to God in the fight, and he gave ear to them, because they put their faith in him.
21And they took away their cattle: fifty thousand camels, two hundred and fifty thousand sheep, and two thousand asses, and a hundred thousand men.
22And a very great number went to their death, because the war was God's purpose. And they went on living in their place till they were taken away as prisoners.
