The Transjordan Tribes

1 The Reubenites and Gadites, who had very large herds and flocks,¹ saw that the lands of Jazer² and Gilead³ were suitable for livestock.⁴ 2 So they came to Moses and Eleazar the priest and to the leaders of the community,⁵ and said, 3 "Ataroth,⁶ Dibon,⁷ Jazer,⁸ Nimrah,⁹ Heshbon,¹⁰ Elealeh,¹¹ Sebam,¹² Nebo¹³ and Beon¹⁴-- 4 the land the LORD subdued¹⁵ before the people of Israel--are suitable for livestock,¹⁶ and your servants have livestock. 5 If we have found favor in your eyes," they said, "let this land be given to your servants as our possession. Do not make us cross the Jordan.¹⁷"
