Numbers 32:31-42 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

31. Then the children of Gaḏ and the children of Re’uḇĕn answered, saying, “As יהוה has said to your servants, so we do.

32. “We ourselves are passing over armed before יהוה into the land of Kena‛an, but the possession of our inheritance remains with us beyond the Yardĕn.”

33. So Mosheh gave to the children of Gaḏ, to the children of Re’uḇĕn, and to half the tribe of Menashsheh, son of Yosĕph, the reign of Siḥon sovereign of the Amorites and the reign of Og̅ sovereign of Bashan, the land with its cities within the borders, the cities of the land round about.

34. And the children of Gaḏ built Diḇon and Ataroth and Aro‛ĕr,

35. and Atroth, Shophan and Ya‛zĕr and Yog̅behah,

36. and Bĕyth Nimrah and Bĕyth Haran, walled cities, and enclosures for sheep.

37. And the children of Re’uḇĕn built Ḥeshbon and El‛alĕh and Qiryathayim,

38. Neḇo and Ba‛al Me‛on – the names being changed – and Shiḇmah. And they gave other names to the cities which they built.

39. And the sons of Maḵir son of Menashsheh went to Gil‛aḏ and took it, and dispossessed the Amorites who were in it.

40. So Mosheh gave Gil‛aḏ to Maḵir, son of Menashsheh, and he dwelt in it.

41. And Ya’ir son of Menashsheh went and took its small towns, and called them Ḥawoth Ya’ir.

42. And Noḇaḥ went and took Qenath and its villages, and he called it Noḇaḥ, after his own name.
