12 To the Reubenites, and to the Gadites, and to the half-tribe of Manasseh, spoke Joshua, saying,
13 Remember the word which Moses the servant of Yahweh commanded you, saying, Yahweh your God gives you rest, and will give you this land.
14 Your wives, your little ones, and your cattle, shall abide in the land which Moses gave you beyond the Jordan; but you shall pass over before your brothers armed, all the mighty men of valor, and shall help them;
15 until Yahweh have given your brothers rest, as [he has given] you, and they also have possessed the land which Yahweh your God gives them: then you shall return to the land of your possession, and possess it, which Moses the servant of Yahweh gave you beyond the Jordan toward the sunrise.
16 They answered Joshua, saying, All that you have commanded us we will do, and wherever you send us we will go.
17 According as we listened to Moses in all things, so will we listen to you: only Yahweh your God be with you, as he was with Moses.
18 Whoever he be who shall rebel against your commandment, and shall not listen to your words in all that you command him, he shall be put to death: only be strong and of good courage.
