1Now the Reubenites and Gadites, who had very large herds and flocks, surveyed the lands of Jazer and Gilead, and they saw that the region was suitable for livestock.
“the children of Reuben and the children of Gath had a very great multitude of cattle. And when they saw the land of Jazer and the land of Gilead, that behold, the place was a place for cattle.”
2So the Gadites and Reubenites came to Moses, Eleazar the priest, and the leaders of the congregation, and said,
“The children of Gad and the children of Reuben came and spake unto Moses and to Eliezer the priest and unto the prince of the congregation saying,”
3"Ataroth, Dibon, Jazer, Nimrah, Heshbon, Elealeh, Sebam, Nebo, and Beon,

4which the LORD conquered before the congregation of Israel, are suitable for livestock—and your servants have livestock."
“Even the country which the Lord smote before the congregation of Israel is a land for cattle and thy servants have cattle,”
5"If we have found favor in your sight," they said, "let this land be given to your servants as a possession. Do not make us cross the Jordan."
“Wherefore, said they, if we have found grace in thy sight, let this land be given unto thy servants for possession, and bring us not over Jordan.”
“they said, if we have found favor in your sight, verse five, let this land be given to your servants as a possession and do not take us over the Jordan.”
6But Moses asked the Gadites and Reubenites, "Shall your brothers go to war while you sit here?
“And Moses said unto the children of Gad and to the children of Reuben, Shall your brethren go to war, and shall you sit here?”
“But Moses said to the people of Gad and to the people of Reuben, shall your brothers go to war while you sit here?”
“And Moses said to the children of Gad, the children of Reuben, shall your brethren go to war while you sit here?”
7Why are you discouraging the Israelites from crossing into the land that the LORD has given them?
“Now, why will you discourage the heart of the children of Israel from going over into the land which the Lord has given them?”
“Why will you discourage the heart of the people of Israel from going over into the land that the Lord has given them?”
“And wherefore discourage ye the heart of the children of Israel from going over into the land which the Lord has given them?”
8This is what your fathers did when I sent them from Kadesh-barnea to inspect the land.
“This is what your fathers did when I sent them away from Kadesh Barnea to see the land.”
“This did your fathers when I sent them from Kadish Barnea to see the land.”
9For when your fathers went up to the Valley of Eshcol and saw the land, they discouraged the Israelites from entering the land that the LORD had given them.
“when they went up to the valley of Eshcol and saw the land they Discouraged the heart of the people of Israel from going into the land that the Lord had given them.”
“For when they went up to the valley of Eshkol, they saw the land. They discouraged the heart of the children of Israel so that they did not go into the land which the Lord had given them.”
“When they went up into the valley of Eschol 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.”
“For when they went up to the valley of Eshgal and saw the land, here we have it again, they discouraged the heart of the people of Israel from going into the land that the Lord had given them.”
10So the anger of the LORD was kindled that day, and He swore an oath, saying,
“So the Lord's anger was aroused on that day. And he sworn an oath saying,”
“And the Lord's anger was kindled on that day, and He swore, saying,”
“So the Lord's anger burned in that day and he swore saying”
“The Lord's anger was kindled the same time, and he swore, saying,”
11'Because they did not follow Me wholeheartedly, not one of the men twenty years of age or older who came out of Egypt will see the land that I swore to give Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob—
“Surely none of the men who came up out of Egypt from twenty years old and upward shall see the land that I swore to give to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, because they have not wholly followed Me.”
“none of the men who came up from Egypt from twenty years old and upward shall see the land which I swore to Abraham, to Isaac, to Jacob, for they did not follow me fully,”
“none of the men which came up from Egypt from 20 years old and upward shall see the land which I swore to Abraham, to Isaac and to Jacob, for they did not follow me fully”
“surely none of the men who came up from Egypt from 20 years old and above shall see the land which I swore to give to Abraham and Isaac and Jacob because they have not followed me”
“Surely none of the men that came up out of Egypt from twenty years old and upward shall see the land which I swore unto Abraham, to Isaac, to Jacob, because they have not wholly followed me.”
12not one except Caleb son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite and Joshua son of Nun—because they did follow the LORD wholeheartedly.'
“except Caleb, the son of Jephunneh, the Kenizzite, and Joshua, the son of Nun, for they have followed the Lord fully.”
“None except Caleb the son of Jephunneh, the Chesanite, and Joshua the son of Nun. For they have wholly followed the Lord.”
“except Caleb the son of Jephthah the Kenazite and Joshua the son of Nun. For they have followed the Lord fully.”
13The anger of the LORD burned against Israel, and He made them wander in the wilderness forty years, until the whole generation who had done evil in His sight was gone.
“And the Lord's anger was kindled against Israel, and he made them wander in the wilderness forty years, until all the generation that had done evil in the sight of the Lord was consumed.”
“The Lord's anger was kindled against Israel, and He made them wander in the wilderness forty years until all the generation that had done evil in the sight of the Lord was gone.”
“So the Lord's anger burned against Israel and he made them wander in the wilderness 40 years until the entire generation of those who had done evil in the sight of the Lord was destroyed.”
14Now behold, you, a brood of sinners, have risen up in place of your fathers to further stoke the burning anger of the LORD against Israel.
“And behold, ye are risen up in your father's stead, an increase of sinful men, to augment yet the fierce anger of the Lord toward Israel.”
“And behold, you have risen in your father's place, a brood of sinful men, to increase still more the fierce anger of the Lord against Israel.”
15For if you turn away from following Him, He will once again leave this people in the wilderness, and you will be the cause of their destruction."
“For if you turn away from following Him, He will again abandon them in the wilderness, and you will destroy all this people.".”
“if ye turn away from after him, he will yet again leave them in the wilderness, and he shall destroy all his people.”
16Then the Gadites and Reubenites approached Moses and said, "We want to build sheepfolds here for our livestock and cities for our little ones.
“And they came near unto him and said, we will build sheepfolds here for our cattle and cities for our little ones.”
“And the king came near unto him and said, We will build sheepfolds here for our cattle and cities for our little ones,”
17But we will arm ourselves and be ready to go ahead of the Israelites until we have brought them into their place. Meanwhile, our little ones will remain in the fortified cities for protection from the inhabitants of the land.
“But we ourselves will go ready -armed before the children of Israel until we have brought them unto their place. And our little ones shall dwell in the fence cities because of the inhabitants of the land.”
“but we ourselves will go ready armed before the children of Israel until we have brought them into their place, and our little ones shall dwell in the fenced cities because of the inhabitants of the land.”
“but we ourselves will go ready armed before the children of Israel until we have brought them unto their place. And our little ones shall dwell in the fenced cities because of the inhabitants of the land.”
“We ourselves will go ready armed before the children of Israel until we have brought them into their place, and our little ones shall dwell in the fenced cities because of the inhabitants of the land.”
18We will not return to our homes until every Israelite has taken possession of his inheritance.
“We will not return unto our houses until the children of Israel have inherited every man his inheritance.”
“We will not return unto our houses until the children of Israel have inherited every man his inheritance,”
“We will not return unto our houses until the children of Israel have inherited every man his inheritance,”
“We will not return unto our houses and unto the children of Israel. Have inherited every man his inheritance.”
19Yet we will not have an inheritance with them across the Jordan and beyond, because our inheritance has come to us on the east side of the Jordan."
“For we will not inherit with them on yonder side Jordan or forward because our inheritance has fallen to us on this side Jordan eastward”
“For we will not inherit with them on yonder side Jordan or forward, because our inheritance has fallen to us on this side Jordan.”
“for we will not inherit with them on yonder side Jordan, or forward, because our inheritance falleth to us on this side of Jordan eastward.”
20Moses replied, "If you will do this—if you will arm yourselves before the LORD for battle,
“And Moses said unto them, If ye do this thing, if ye will go armed before the Lord to war,”
“and Moses said unto them if you will do this thing if you will go armed before the Lord to war”
21and if every one of your armed men crosses the Jordan before the LORD, until He has driven His enemies out before Him,
“and We'll go all of you armed over Jordan before the Lord until he has driven out his enemies from before him”
“and will go all of you armed over Jordan before the Lord, until ye have driven out his enemies from before him,”
22then when the land is subdued before the LORD, you may return and be free of obligation to the LORD and to Israel. And this land will belong to you as a possession before the LORD.
“and the land be subdued before the Lord then afterward you shall return and be guiltless before the Lord and Before Israel and this land shall be your possession before the Lord.”
23But if you do not do this, you will certainly sin against the LORD—and be assured that your sin will find you out.
“But if you will not do so Behold you have sinned against the Lord and be sure your sin Will find you out.”
“But if ye will not do so, behold, ye have sinned against the Lord, and be sure your sin will find you out.”
“But if you will not do so, behold, you have sinned against the Lord. And be sure, your sin will find you out.”
“But if ye will not do so, behold, ye have sinned against the Lord. And what's it say? Be sure your sin will find you out.”
“But if you will not do so behold ye have sinned against the Lord and Be sure your sin Will find you out.”
“but if you do not do this, behold, you have sinned against the Lord, and be sure your sin will find you out.”
24Build cities for your little ones and folds for your flocks, but do what you have promised."
