NASB
"Then they came near to him and said, "We will build here sheepfolds for our livestock and cities for our little ones;"
— Numbers 32:16, NASB
“And they came near unto him, and said, We will build sheepfolds here for our cattle, 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: ”
“They came near to him, and said, "We will build sheepfolds here for our livestock, and cities for our little ones:”
“The Offer of the Reubenites and Gadites Then they came very close to him and said,“We will build sheep folds here for our flocks and cities for our families,”
“But they coming near, said: We will make sheepfolds, and stalls for our cattle, and strong cities for our children:”
“Then they came to him, and said, We will make safe places for our cattle here, and towns 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:”
"So the LORD'S anger burned against Israel, and He made them wander in the wilderness forty years, until the entire generation of those who had done evil in the sight of the LORD was destroyed.
"Now behold, you have risen up in your fathers' place, a brood of sinful men, to add still more to the burning anger of the LORD against Israel.
"For if you turn away from following Him, He will once more abandon them in the wilderness, and you will destroy all these people."
Then they came near to him and said, "We will build here sheepfolds for our livestock and cities for our little ones;
but we ourselves will be armed ready to go before the sons of Israel, until we have brought them to their place, while our little ones live in the fortified cities because of the inhabitants of the land.
"We will not return to our homes until every one of the sons of Israel has possessed his inheritance.
"For we will not have an inheritance with them on the other side of the Jordan and beyond, because our inheritance has fallen to us on this side of the Jordan toward the east."
