Num 32:1 Now the children of Reuben and the children of Gad 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;

wayyāḇō’û ḇənê-g̱āḏ ûḇənê rə’ûḇēn wayyō’mərû ’el-mōšeh wə’el-’elə‘āzār hakkōhēn wə’el-nəśî’ê hā‘ēḏāh lē’mōr

Num 32:2 The children of Gad and the children of Reuben came and spake unto Moses, and to Eleazar the priest, and unto the princes of the congregation, saying,

‘ăṭārôṯ wəḏîḇōn wəya‘əzēr wənimərāh wəḥešəbôn wə’elə‘ālēh ûśəḇām ûnəḇô ûḇə‘ōn

Num 32:3 Ataroth, and Dibon, and Jazer, and Nimrah, and Heshbon, and Elealeh, and Shebam, and Nebo, and Beon,

hā’āreṣ ’ăšer hikkāh yəhwāh lip̱ənê ‘ăḏaṯ yiśərā’ēl ’ereṣ miqəneh hiw’ wəla‘ăḇāḏeyḵā miqəneh

Num 32:4 Even the country which the LORD smote before the congregation of Israel, is a land for cattle, and thy servants have cattle:

wayyō’mərû ’im-māṣā’nû ḥēn bə‘êneyḵā yuttan ’eṯ-hā’āreṣ hazzō’ṯ la‘ăḇāḏeyḵā la’ăḥuzzāh ’al-ta‘ăḇirēnû ’eṯ-hayyarədēn

Num 32:5 Wherefore, said they, if we have found grace in thy sight, let this land be given unto thy servants for a possession, and bring us not over Jordan.

wayyō’mer mōšeh liḇənê-g̱āḏ wəliḇənê rə’ûḇēn ha’aḥêḵem yāḇō’û lammiləḥāmāh wə’attem tēšəḇû p̱ōh

Num 32:6 And Moses said unto the children of Gad and to the children of Reuben, Shall your brethren go to war, and shall ye sit here?

wəlāmmāh ṯənî’ûn ’eṯ-lēḇ bənê yiśərā’ēl mē‘ăḇōr ’el-hā’āreṣ ’ăšer-nāṯan lāhem yəhwāh

Num 32:7 And wherefore discourage ye the heart of the children of Israel from going over into the land which the LORD hath given them?

kōh ‘āśû ’ăḇōṯêḵem bəšāləḥî ’ōṯām miqqāḏēš barənēa‘ lirə’ôṯ ’eṯ-hā’āreṣ

Num 32:8 Thus did your fathers, when I sent them from Kadeshbarnea to see the land.

Num 32:9 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.

wayyiḥar-’ap̱ yəhwāh bayyôm hahû’ wayyiššāḇa‘ lē’mōr

Num 32:10 And the LORD's anger was kindled the same time, and he sware, saying,

’im-yirə’û hā’ănāšîm hā‘ōlîm mimmiṣərayim mibben ‘eśərîm šānāh wāma‘əlāh ’ēṯ hā’ăḏāmāh ’ăšer nišəba‘ətî lə’aḇərāhām ləyiṣəḥāq ûləya‘ăqōḇ kî lō’-milə’û ’aḥărāy

Num 32:11 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:

bilətî kālēḇ ben-yəp̱unneh haqqənizzî wîhôšua‘ bin-nûn kî milə’û ’aḥărê yəhwāh

Num 32:12 Save Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenezite, and Joshua the son of Nun: for they have wholly followed the LORD.

wayyiḥar-’ap̱ yəhwāh bəyiśərā’ēl wayəni‘ēm bammiḏəbār ’arəbā‘îm šānāh ‘aḏ-tōm kāl-haddôr hā‘ōśeh hāra‘ bə‘ênê yəhwāh

Num 32:13 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.

wəhinnēh qamətem taḥaṯ ’ăḇōṯêḵem tarəbûṯ ’ănāšîm ḥaṭṭā’îm lisəpôṯ ‘ôḏ ‘al ḥărôn ’ap̱-yəhwāh ’el-yiśərā’ēl

Num 32:14 And, behold, ye are risen up in your fathers' stead, an increase of sinful men, to augment yet the fierce anger of the LORD toward Israel.

kî ṯəšûḇun mē’aḥărāyw wəyāsap̱ ‘ôḏ ləhannîḥô bammiḏəbār wəšiḥattem ləḵāl-hā‘ām hazzeh

Num 32:15 For if ye turn away from after him, he will yet again leave them in the wilderness; and ye shall destroy all this people.

Num 32:16 And they came near unto him, and said, We will build sheepfolds here for our cattle, and cities for our little ones:

wa’ănaḥənû nēḥālēṣ ḥušîm lip̱ənê bənê yiśərā’ēl ‘aḏ ’ăšer ’im-hăḇî’ōnum ’el-məqômām wəyāšaḇ ṭappēnû bə‘ārê hammiḇəṣār mippənê yōšəḇê hā’āreṣ

Num 32:17 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.

lō’ nāšûḇ ’el-bāttênû ‘aḏ hiṯənaḥēl bənê yiśərā’ēl ’îš naḥălāṯô

Num 32:18 We will not return unto our houses, until the children of Israel have inherited every man his inheritance.

kî lō’ ninəḥal ’ittām mē‘ēḇer layyarədēn wāhālə’āh kî ḇā’āh naḥălāṯēnû ’ēlênû mē‘ēḇer hayyarədēn mizərāḥāh

Num 32:19 For we will not inherit with them on yonder side Jordan, or forward; because our inheritance is fallen to us on this side Jordan eastward.

wayyō’mer ’ălêhem mōšeh ’im-ta‘ăśûn ’eṯ-haddāḇār hazzeh ’im-tēḥāləṣû lip̱ənê yəhwāh lammiləḥāmāh

Num 32:20 And Moses said unto them, If ye will do this thing, if ye will go armed before the LORD to war,

Num 32:21 And will go all of you armed over Jordan before the LORD, until he hath driven out his enemies from before him,

Num 32:22 And the land be subdued before the LORD: then afterward ye shall return, and be guiltless before the LORD, and before Israel; and this land shall be your possession before the LORD.

wə’im-lō’ ṯa‘ăśûn kēn hinnēh ḥăṭā’ṯem layhwāh ûḏə‘û ḥaṭṭa’ṯəḵem ’ăšer timəṣā’ ’eṯəḵem

Num 32:23 But if ye will not do so, behold, ye have sinned against the LORD: and be sure your sin will find you out.

Num 32:24 Build you cities for your little ones, and folds for your sheep; and do that which hath proceeded out of your mouth.

Num 32:25 And the children of Gad and the children of Reuben spake unto Moses, saying, Thy servants will do as my lord commandeth.

Num 32:26 Our little ones, our wives, our flocks, and all our cattle, shall be there in the cities of Gilead:

Num 32:27 But thy servants will pass over, every man armed for war, before the Lord to battle, as my lord saith.

Num 32:28 So concerning them Moses commanded Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun, and the chief fathers of the tribes of the children of Israel:

Num 32:29 And Moses said unto them, If the children of Gad and the children of Reuben will pass with you over Jordan, every man armed to battle, before the LORD, and the land shall be subdued before you; then ye shall give them the land of Gilead for a possession:

wə’im-lō’ ya‘aḇərû ḥălûṣîm ’ittəḵem wənō’ḥăzû ḇəṯōḵəḵem bə’ereṣ kənā‘an

Num 32:30 But if they will not pass over with you armed, they shall have possessions among you in the land of Canaan.

Num 32:31 And the children of Gad and the children of Reuben answered, saying, As the LORD hath said unto thy servants, so will we do.

naḥənû na‘ăḇōr ḥălûṣîm lip̱ənê yəhwāh ’ereṣ kənā‘an wə’ittānû ’ăḥuzzaṯ naḥălāṯēnû mē‘ēḇer layyarədēn

Num 32:32 We will pass over armed before the LORD into the land of Canaan, that the possession of our inheritance on this side Jordan may be our's.
