26our infants, our wives, our cattle, and all our beasts, are there in cities of Gilead,
27and thy servants pass over, every armed one of the host, before Jehovah, to battle, as my lord is saying.`
28And Moses commandeth concerning them Eleazar the priest, and Joshua son of Nun, and the heads of the fathers of the tribes of the sons of Israel;
29and Moses saith unto them, `If the sons of Gad and the sons of Reuben pass over with you the Jordan, every one armed for battle, before Jehovah, and the land hath been subdued before you, then ye have given to them the land of Gilead for a possession;
30and if they do not pass over armed with you, then they have possessions in your midst in the land of Canaan.`
31And the sons of Gad and the sons of Reuben answer, saying, `That which Jehovah hath spoken unto thy servants -- so we do;
32we -- we pass over armed before Jehovah [to] the land of Canaan, and with us [is] the possession of our inheritance beyond the Jordan.`
