31. The Gadites and Reubenites answered, “We are your servants, and we will do as the Lord said.
32. We will cross over into Canaan and go before the Lord ready for battle. But our land will be east of the Jordan River.”
33. So Moses gave that land to the tribes of Gad, Reuben, and East Manasseh. (Manasseh was Joseph’s son.) That land had been the kingdom of Sihon, king of the Amorites, and the kingdom of Og, king of Bashan, as well as all the cities and the land around them.
34. The Gadites rebuilt the cities of Dibon, Ataroth, Aroer,
35. Atroth Shophan, Jazer, Jogbehah,
36. Beth Nimrah, and Beth Haran. These were strong, walled cities. And they built sheep pens.
