16

Then they came to him, and said, We will make safe places for our cattle here, and towns for our little ones;

17

But we ourselves will be ready armed to go before the children of Israel till we have taken them to their place: but our little ones will be safe in the walled towns against the people of the land.

18

We will not come back to our houses till every one of the children of Israel has come into his heritage.

19

For we will not have our heritage with them on the other side of Jordan and forward; because our heritage has come to us on this side of Jordan to the east.

20

Then Moses said to them, If you will do this, arming yourselves to go before the Lord to the war,

21

Every armed man of you going across Jordan before the Lord till he has overcome and sent in flight all who are against him,

And the land is under the rule of the Lord: then after that you may come back, having done no wrong to the Lord and to Israel; and this land will be yours for your heritage before the Lord.
