3. Ataroth, and Dibon, and Jazer, and Nimrah, and Heshbon, and Elealeh, and Sebam, and Nebo, and Beon,
4. the land which the Lord smote before the congregation of Israel, is a land for cattle, and thy servants have cattle.
5. And they said, If we have found grace in thy sight, let this land be given unto thy servants for a possession; bring us not over Jordan.
6. And Moses said unto the children of Gad and to the children of Reuben, Shall your brethren go to the war, and shall ye sit here?
7. And wherefore discourage ye the heart of the children of Israel from going over into the land which the Lord hath given them?
8. Thus did your fathers, when I sent them from Kadesh-barnea to see the land.
9. For when they went up unto the valley of Eshcol, and saw the land, they discouraged the heart of the children of Israel, that they should not go into the land which the Lord had given them.
10. And the Lord'S anger was kindled in that day, and he sware, saying,
11. Surely none of the men that came up out of Egypt, from twenty years old and upward, shall see the land which I sware unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob; because they have not wholly followed me:
12. save Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite, and Joshua the son of Nun: because they have wholly followed the Lord.
