1 Then H227 ADV Joshua H3091 called H7121 VQY3MS the Reubenites H7206 , and the Gadites H1425 , and the half H2677 tribe H4294 of Manasseh H4519 ,

3 Ye have not H3808 ADV left H5800 your brethren H251 these H2088 DPRO many H7227 AMP days H3117 NMP unto H5704 PREP this H2088 D-PMS day H3117 D-AMS , but have kept H8104 the charge H4931 of the commandment H4687 CFS of the LORD H3068 EDS your God H430 .

6 So Joshua H3091 blessed H1288 them , and sent them away H7971 W-VPY3MS-3MP : and they went H1980 W-VQY3MP unto H413 PREP their tents H168 .
7 Now to the one half H2677 of the tribe H7626 CMS of Manasseh H4519 Moses H4872 had given H5414 VQQ3MS possession in Bashan H1316 : but unto the other half H2677 thereof gave H5414 VQQ3MS Joshua H3091 among H5973 PREP their brethren H251 on this side H5676 Jordan H3383 D-EFS westward H3220 . And when H3588 CONJ Joshua H3091 sent them away H7971 also H1571 W-CONJ unto H413 PREP their tents H168 , then he blessed H1288 them ,
8 And he spoke H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP them , saying H559 W-VQY3MS , Return H7725 with much H7227 AMS riches H5233 unto H413 PREP your tents H168 , and with very H3966 ADV much H7227 AMS cattle H4735 , with silver H3701 , and with gold H2091 , and with brass H5178 , and with iron H1270 , and with very H3966 ADV much H7235 VHFA raiment H8008 : divide H2505 the spoil H7998 of your enemies H341 with H5973 PREP your brethren H251 .
9 And the children H1121 W-CMP of Reuben H7205 and the children H1121 W-CMP of Gad H1410 and the half H2677 tribe H7626 CMS of Manasseh H4519 returned H7725 W-VUY3MP , and departed H1980 W-VQY3MP from the children H1121 W-CMP of Israel H3478 out of Shiloh H7887 , which H834 RPRO is in the land H776 B-GFS of Canaan H3667 EMS , to go H1980 L-VQFC unto H413 PREP the country H776 GFS of Gilead H1568 , to H413 PREP the land H776 GFS of their possession H272 , whereof H834 RPRO they were possessed H270 , according H5921 PREP to the word H6310 of the LORD H3068 EDS by the hand H3027 B-CFS of Moses H4872 .
10 And when they came H935 W-VQY3MP unto H413 PREP the borders H1552 of Jordan H3383 D-EFS , that H834 RPRO are in the land H776 B-GFS of Canaan H3667 EMS , the children H1121 CMP of Reuben H7205 and the children H1121 W-CMP of Gad H1410 and the half H2677 tribe H7626 CMS of Manasseh H4519 built H1129 there H8033 ADV an altar H4196 NMS by H5921 PREP Jordan H3383 D-EFS , a great H1419 AMS altar H4196 NMS to see H4758 to .
11 And the children H1121 of Israel H3478 heard H8085 say H559 L-VQFC , Behold H2009 IJEC , the children H1121 of Reuben H7205 and the children H1121 W-CMP of Gad H1410 and the half H2677 tribe H7626 CMS of Manasseh H4519 have built H1129 an altar H4196 D-NMS over against H413 PREP 6 H4136 PREP the land H776 GFS of Canaan H3667 LMS , in H413 PREP the borders H1552 of Jordan H3383 D-EFS , at H413 PREP the passage H1552 of the children H1121 of Israel H3478 LMS .

13 And the children H1121 of Israel H3478 sent H7971 unto H413 PREP the children H1121 of Reuben H7205 , and to H413 PREP the children H1121 of Gad H1410 , and to H413 PREP the half H2677 tribe H7626 of Manasseh H4519 , into H413 PREP the land H776 GFS of Gilead H1568 , Phinehas H6372 the son H1121 of Eleazar H499 the priest H3548 ,
14 And with H5973 PREP-3MS him ten H6235 princes H5387 , of each chief H5387 house H1004 a prince H1 NMS throughout all H3605 the tribes H4294 of Israel H3478 ; and each one H376 W-NMS was a head H7218 NMS of the house H1004 CMS of their fathers H1 CMP-3MP among the thousands H505 of Israel H3478 LMS .
15 And they came H935 W-VQY3MP unto H413 PREP the children H1121 of Reuben H7205 , and to H413 PREP the children H1121 of Gad H1410 , and to H413 PREP the half H2677 tribe H7626 of Manasseh H4519 , unto H413 PREP the land H776 GFS of Gilead H1568 , and they spoke H1696 W-VPY3MP with H854 PREP-3MP them , saying H559 L-VQFC ,

17 Is the iniquity H5771 of Peor H6465 too little H4592 D-AMS for us , from H4480 M-PREP-3MS which H834 RPRO we are not H3808 ADV cleansed H2891 until H5704 PREP this H2088 D-PMS day H3117 D-AMS , although there was H1961 W-VQY3MS a plague H5063 in the congregation H5712 B-CFS of the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS ,
18 But that ye H859 W-PPRO-2MP must turn away H7725 VQY2MP this day H3117 D-AMS from following H310 the LORD H3068 EDS ? and it will be H1961 W-VQQ3MS , seeing ye H859 PPRO-2MS rebel H4775 today H3117 D-AMS against the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS , that tomorrow H4279 he will be wroth H7107 with H413 PREP the whole H3605 NMS congregation H5712 CFS of Israel H3478 .
19 Notwithstanding H389 W-ADV , if H518 PART the land H776 GFS of your possession H272 be unclean H2931 , then pass ye over H5674 unto H413 PREP the land H776 GFS of the possession H272 of the LORD H3068 EDS , wherein H834 RPRO the LORD H3068 EDS \'s tabernacle H4908 dwelleth H7931 , and take possession H270 among H8432 B-CMS-1MP us : but rebel H4775 not H408 NPAR against the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS , nor H408 ADV rebel H4775 against us , in building H1129 you an altar H4196 NMS beside H1107 the altar H4196 of the LORD H3068 EDS our God H430 .
20 Did not H3808 ADV Achan H5912 the son H1121 of Zerah H2226 commit H4603 a trespass H4604 in the accursed thing H2764 , and wrath H7110 fell H1961 VQQ3MS on H5921 all H3605 NMS the congregation H5712 CFS of Israel H3478 ? and that H1931 W-PPRO-3MS man H376 NMS perished H1478 not H3808 NADV alone H259 MMS in his iniquity H5771 .
21 Then the children H1121 W-CMP of Reuben H7205 and the children H1121 W-CMP of Gad H1410 and the half H2677 tribe H7626 CMS of Manasseh H4519 answered H6030 , and said H1696 unto the heads H7218 CMP of the thousands H505 BMP of Israel H3478 LMS ,
22 The LORD H3068 EDS God H410 EDS of gods H430 EDP , the LORD H3068 EDS God H410 EDS of gods H430 EDP , he H1931 PPRO-3MS knoweth H3045 VQPMS , and Israel H3478 he H1931 PPRO-3MS shall know H3045 VQY3MS ; if H518 PART it be in rebellion H4777 , or if H518 PART in transgression H4604 against the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS , ( save H3467 us not H408 NPAR this H2088 D-PMS day H3117 D-AMS , )
23 That we have built H1129 us an altar H4196 NMS to turn H7725 from following H310 the LORD H3068 EDS , or if H518 W-PART to offer H5927 thereon H5921 PREP-3MS burnt offering H5930 NFS or meat offering H4503 , or if H518 W-PART to offer H6213 L-VQFC peace H8002 offerings H2077 thereon H5921 PREP-3MS , let the LORD H3068 EDS himself H1931 PPRO-3MS require H1245 it ;
24 And if H518 W-PART we have not H3808 NADV rather done H6213 it H2063 DPRO for fear H1674 of this thing H1697 , saying H559 L-VQFC , In time to come H4279 NMS your children H1121 might speak H559 VQY3MP unto our children H1121 , saying H559 L-VQFC , What H4100 IPRO have ye to do with the LORD H3068 God H430 CDP of Israel H3478 LMS ?
25 For the LORD H3068 EDS hath made H5414 Jordan H3383 D-EFS a border H1366 between H996 us and you , ye children H1121 W-CMP of Reuben H7205 and children H1121 of Gad H1410 ; ye have no H369 NPAR part H2506 CMS in the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS : so shall your children H1121 make our children H1121 W-CMP cease H7673 from fearing H3372 the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS .
26 Therefore we said H559 , Let us now H4994 IJEC prepare H6213 to build H1129 us an altar H4196 D-NMS , not H3808 NADV for burnt H5930 offering , nor H3808 W-NADV for sacrifice H2077 :

28 Therefore said H559 we , that it shall be H1961 W-VQQ3MS , when H3588 CONJ they should so say H559 VQY3MP to H413 us or to H413 W-PREP our generations H1755 in time to come H4279 NMS , that we may say H559 again , Behold H7200 the pattern H8403 of the altar H4196 of the LORD H3068 EDS , which H834 RPRO our fathers H1 made H6213 VQQ3MP , not H3808 NADV for burnt offerings H5930 , nor H3808 W-NADV for sacrifices H2077 ; but H3588 CONJ it H1931 PPRO-3MS is a witness H5707 between H996 PREP-1MP us and you .
29 God forbid H2486 IJEC-3FS that we H4480 M-PREP-3MS should rebel H4775 against the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS , and turn H7725 this day H3117 D-AMS from following H310 the LORD H3068 EDS , to build H1129 an altar H4196 NMS for burnt offerings H5930 , for meat offerings H4503 , or for sacrifices H2077 , beside H905 ML-NMS the altar H4196 of the LORD H3068 EDS our God H430 that H834 RPRO is before H6440 L-CMP his tabernacle H4908 .

31 And Phinehas H6372 the son H1121 of Eleazar H499 the priest H3548 said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP the children H1121 of Reuben H7205 , and to H413 PREP the children H1121 of Gad H1410 , and to H413 PREP the children H1121 of Manasseh H4519 , This day H3117 D-AMS we perceive H3045 that H3588 CONJ the LORD H3068 EDS is among H8432 us , because H834 RPRO ye have not H3808 ADV committed H4603 this H2088 D-PMS trespass H4604 against the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS : now H227 ADV ye have delivered H5337 the children H1121 of Israel H3478 out of the hand H3027 M-GFS of the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS .

33 And the thing H1697 D-NMS pleased H3190 the children H1121 W-CMP of Israel H3478 ; and the children H1121 W-CMP of Israel H3478 blessed H1288 God H430 EDP , and did not H3808 W-NPAR intend H559 VQQ3MP to go up H5927 L-VQFC against H5921 PREP-3MP them in battle H6635 , to destroy H7843 L-VPFC the land H776 D-GFS wherein H834 RPRO the children H1121 W-CMP of Reuben H7205 and Gad H1410 dwelt H3427 .
