from Kadesh-barnea{H6947} to see{H7200} the land.{H776} 9 For when they went up{H5927} unto the valley{H5158} of Eshcol,{H812} and saw{H7200} the land,{H776} they discouraged{H5106} the heart{H3820}

see{H7200} the land{H127} which I sware{H7650} unto Abraham,{H85} unto Isaac,{H3327} and unto Jacob;{H3290} because they have not wholly{H4390} followed{H310} me: 12 save Caleb{H3612} the son{H1121}

destroy{H7843} all this people.{H5971} 16 And they came near{H5066} unto him, and said,{H559} We will build{H1129} sheepfolds{H1448} here for our cattle,{H4735} and cities{H5892} for our little ones:{H2945} 17 but we ourselves{H587} will be ready{H2363} armed{H2502} to go before{H6440} the children{H1121} of Israel,{H3478} until we have brought{H935} them unto their place:{H4725} and our little ones{H2945} shall dwell{H3427} in the fortified{H4013} cities{H5892} because{H6440} of the inhabitants{H3427} of the land.{H776} 18 We will not return{H7725} unto our houses,{H1004} until the children{H1121} of Israel{H3478} have inherited{H5157} every man{H376} his inheritance.{H5159} 19 For we will not inherit{H5157} with them on the other side{H5676} of the Jordan,{H3383} and forward;{H1973} because our inheritance{H5159} is fallen{H935} to us on this side{H5676} of the Jordan{H3383} eastward.{H4217} 20 And Moses{H4872} said{H559} unto them, If ye will do{H6213} this thing,{H1697} if ye will arm{H2502} yourselves to go before{H6440} Jehovah{H3068} to the war,{H4421} 21 and every armed{H2502} man of you will pass{H5674} over{H5674} the Jordan{H3383} before{H6440} Jehovah,{H3068} until he hath driven out{H3423} his enemies{H341} from before{H6440} him, 22 and the land{H776} is subdued{H3533} before{H6440} Jehovah;{H3068} then afterward{H310} ye shall return,{H7725} and be guiltless{H5355} towards Jehovah,{H3068} and towards Israel;{H3478} and this land{H776} shall be unto you for a possession{H272} before{H6440} Jehovah.{H3068} 23 But if ye will not do so,{H6213} behold, ye have sinned{H2398} against Jehovah;{H3068} and be sure{H3045} your sin{H2403} will find you out.{H4672} 24 Build{H1129} you cities{H5892} for your little ones,{H2945} and folds{H1448} for your sheep;{H6792} and do{H6213} that which hath proceeded{H3318} out of your mouth.{H6310} 25 And the children{H1121} of Gad{H1410} and the children{H1121} of Reuben{H7205} spake{H559} unto Moses,{H4872} saying,{H559} Thy servants{H5650} will do{H6213} as my lord{H113} commandeth.{H6680} 26 Our little ones,{H2945} our wives,{H802} our flocks,{H4735} and all our cattle,{H929} shall be there in the cities{H5892} of Gilead;{H1568} 27 but thy servants{H5650} will pass over,{H5674} every man that is armed{H2502} for war,{H6635} before{H6440} Jehovah{H3068} to battle,{H4421} as my lord{H3068} saith.{H1696} 28 So Moses{H4872} gave charge{H6680} concerning them to Eleazar{H499} the priest,{H3548} and to Joshua{H3091} the son{H1121} of Nun,{H5126} and to the heads{H7218} of the fathers'{H1} [houses] of the tribes{H4294} of the children{H1121} of Israel.{H3478} 29 And Moses{H4872} said{H559} unto them, If the children{H1121} of Gad{H1410} and the children{H1121} of Reuben{H7205} will pass with you over{H5674} the Jordan,{H3383} every man that is armed{H2502} to battle,{H4421} before{H6440} Jehovah,{H3068} and the land{H776} shall be subdued{H3533} before{H6440} you; then ye shall give{H5414} them the land{H776} of Gilead{H1568} for a possession:{H272} 30 but if they will not pass over{H5674} with you armed,{H2502} they shall have possessions{H270} among{H8432} you in the land{H776} of Canaan.{H3667} 31 And the children{H1121} of Gad{H1410} and the children{H1121} of Reuben{H7205} answered,{H6030} saying,{H559} As Jehovah{H3068} hath said{H1696} unto thy servants,{H5650} so will we do.{H6213} 32 We will{H5168} pass over{H5674} armed{H2502} before{H6440} Jehovah{H3068} into the land{H776} of Canaan,{H3667} and the possession{H272} of our inheritance{H5159} [shall remain] with us beyond{H5676} the Jordan.{H3383} 33 And Moses{H4872} gave{H5414} unto them, even to the children{H1121} of Gad,{H1410} and to the children{H1121} of Reuben,{H7205} and unto the half -{H2677} tribe{H7626} of Manasseh{H4519} the son{H1121} of Joseph,{H3130} the kingdom{H4467} of Sihon{H5511} king{H4428} of the Amorites,{H567} and

about.{H5439} 34 And the children{H1121} of Gad{H1410} built{H1129} Dibon,{H1769} and Ataroth,{H5852} and Aroer,{H6177} 35 and Atrothshophan,{H5855} and Jazer,{H3270} and Jogbehah,{H3011} 36 and
