Reuben’s Inheritance
15 Moses gave [an inheritance] to the tribe of the descendants of Reuben according to their families.
16
Their territory was from Aroer, which [was] on the edge of the wadi of Arnon, and the city that [is] in the middle of the valley, and all the plateau by Medeba;
17
Heshbon and its cities that [are] on the plateau; Dibon, Bamoth Baal, Beth Baal Meon,
18
Jahaz, Kedemoth, Mephaath,
19
Kiriathaim, Sibmah, and Zereth Shahar on the hill of the valley;
20
Beth Peor, the slopes of Pisgah, and Beth Jeshimoth;
21
all of the cities of the plateau, and all the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon and whom Moses defeated with the leaders of Midian, Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba, the princes of Sihon who dwelled in the land.
22
[In addition] to their slain, the {Israelites} killed with the sword Balaam son of Beor, who practiced divination.
23
And the border of the descendants of Reuben [was] the Jordan and [its] banks. This [was] the inheritance of the descendants of Reuben according to their families, the cities, and their villages.
