Joshua

Chapter 22

1 THEN Joshua called the Reubenites and the Gadites and the half tribe of Manasseh,

2 And said to them, You have kept all that Moses the servant of the LORD commanded you, and have obeyed my voice in all that I have commanded you;

3 You have not deserted your brethren these many days even to this time, but have kept the commandments of the LORD your God.

4 And now the LORD your God has given rest to your brethren, as he promised them; therefore now return, and go to your towns and to the land of your possession, which Moses the servant of the LORD gave you on the other side of the Jordan to the east.

5 But only take diligent heed to observe the commandments and the laws which Moses the servant of the LORD charged you, to love the LORD your God, to keep his commandments, and to cleave to him, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul.

6 So Joshua blessed them and sent them away; and they went to their towns.

7 Now to the half of the tribe of Manasseh Moses had given an inheritance in Mathnin; but to the other half thereof Joshua had given an inheritance among their brethren on this side of the Jordan to the west. And when Joshua sent them away to their towns, he blessed them;

8 And he spoke to them, saying, Return to your towns and to the land of your inheritance with much wealth and with very many cattle, with silver, with gold, with brass, with iron, and with very much clothing; divide the spoil of your enemies with your brethren.

9 So the Reubenites and the Gadites and the half tribe of Manasseh returned, and departed from the children of Israel out of Shiloh, which is in the land of Canaan, to go to the land of Gilead, to the land of their possessions, in which they were given an inheritance, according to the word of the LORD by the hand of Moses.

10 And when they came to Gilgal, which is by the side of the Jordan in the land of Canaan, the Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half tribe of Manasseh built there an altar by the Jordan, a large and remarkable altar.

11 And the children of Israel heard it said, Behold, the Reubenites and the Gadites and the half tribe of Manasseh have built an altar at the border of the land of Canaan, in Gilgal which is by the side of the Jordan, in the land of the children of Israel.

12 Then the whole congregation of the children of Israel gathered themselves together at Shiloh to go to war against them.

13 And the children of Israel sent to the Reubenites and to the Gadites and to the half tribe of Manasseh, into the land of Gilead, Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest,

14 And with him ten princes, one prince from every tribe of Israel; and these men were chiefs of the armies of Israel.

15 And they came to the Reubenites and to the Gadites and to the half tribe of Manasseh, in the land of Gilead, and they spoke with them, saying.

16 Thus says the whole congregation of the LORD, What treachery is this which you have committed against the God of Israel, in turning away from following the LORD, in that you have builded yourselves an altar, that you might abandon the worship of the LORD?

17 Is the iniquity of Peor not enough for us, from which we are not cleansed until this day, although there was a plague in the congregation of the LORD?

18 And as for you, when you turned away this day from the worship of the LORD, tomorrow the anger will be against the whole congregation of Israel.

19 If, however, the land of your possession is unclean, then pass over to the land of the possession of the LORD, where the LORD'S tabernacle dwells, and inherit land among us; but do not disdain the worship of the LORD, nor rebel against us by building for yourselves an altar beside the altar of the LORD the God of Israel.

20 Did you not see that when Achar the son of Carmi coveted and took the devoted things, wrath fell upon the whole congregation of Israel? He was but one man, yet he devoured us all in his iniquity.

21 Then the Reubenites the Gadites and the half tribe of Manasseh answered and said to Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest and to the heads of the armies of Israel,

22 The LORD is the God of gods, the God of gods is the LORD, and he is our God, and he knows Israel and he knows us also; if we shall depart from him, or if we shall transgress against the worship of the LORD in doing this thing, then let him not save us this day.

23 And if we have built us an altar to turn from the worship of the LORD, or to offer upon it burnt offerings, or use it for any other service, let the LORD himself seek vengeance against us;

24 And if we have not rather done this thing because of reverence to him, so that in time to come your children might not say to our children, What have you to do with the LORD God of Israel, O you Reubenites and Gadites?

25 For the LORD has made the Jordan a boundary between us and you; now therefore you have no part in the LORD; so in time to come shall your children make our children cease from worshipping the LORD.

26 Therefore we said, Let us now prepare to build us an altar, not for burnt offering, nor for sacrifice;

27 But that it may be a witness between us and you, and between our generations after us, and between ourselves and our generations after us, that we might do the service of the LORD before him with our burnt offerings and with our sacrifices and with our peace offerings, in the place where the LORD chooses to dwell; so that your children may not say to our children in time to come, You have no part in the LORD.

28 Therefore we said that it shall be, if they should ever speak to us or to our generations in time to come, then we may say to them, Behold the pattern of the altar of the LORD which our fathers made not for burnt offerings, nor for sacrifices; but to be a witness between us and you.

29 God forbid that we should reject the worship of the LORD, and turn away from revering him, and build for ourselves an altar for burnt offerings, for gift offerings, or for sacrifices, besides the altar of the LORD God of Israel that is before his tabernacle.

30 And when Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest and the princes of the congregation and the heads of the armies of Israel who were with him heard the words that the Reubenites and the Gadites and the half tribe of Manasseh spoke, it pleased them.

31 And Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest said to the Reubenites and to the Gadites and to the half tribe of Manasseh. This day we know that the LORD is among us, because you have not committed this trespass against the LORD; now you have delivered the children of Israel, that the hand of the LORD might not be against them with wrath.

32 Then Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest, and the princes who were with him, returned from the Reubenites and from the Gadites and the Manashites, out of the land of Gilead, to the land of Canaan, to the children of Israel, and brought them an answer.

33 And the answer pleased the children of Israel; and the children of Israel blessed God, and decided not to go up against them to battle to destroy the land wherein the Reubenites and the Gadites and the Manashites dwelt.

34 And the Reubenites and the Gadites and the Manashites called the altar which they had made, The Altar of Testimony, for it is a witness between us that the LORD is the only God.

Joshua

Chapter 22

1 Then227 Joshua3091 called7121 the Reubenites,7206 and the Gadites,1425 and the half2677 tribe4294 of Manasseh,4519

2 And said559 to them, You have kept8104 all3605 that Moses4872 the servant5650 of the LORD3068 commanded6680 you, and have obeyed8085 my voice6963 in all3605 that I commanded6680 you:

3 You have not left5800 your brothers251 these428 many7227 days3117 to this2088 day,3117 but have kept8104 the charge4931 of the commandment4687 of the LORD3068 your God.430

4 And now6258 the LORD3068 your God430 has given rest5117 to your brothers,251 as he promised1696 them: therefore now6258 return6437 you, and get3212 you to your tents,168 and to the land776 of your possession,272 which834 Moses4872 the servant5650 of the LORD3068 gave5414 you on the other5676 side5676 Jordan.3383

5 But take diligent3966 heed8104 to do6213 the commandment4687 and the law,8451 which834 Moses4872 the servant5650 of the LORD3068 charged6680 you, to love157 the LORD3068 your God,430 and to walk3212 in all3605 his ways,1870 and to keep8104 his commandments,4687 and to hold1692 to him, and to serve5647 him with all3605 your heart3824 and with all3605 your soul.5315

6 So Joshua3091 blessed1288 them, and sent7971 them away: and they went3212 to their tents.168

7 Now to the one half2677 of the tribe7626 of Manasseh4519 Moses4872 had given5414 possession in Bashan:1316 but to the other half2677 thereof gave5414 Joshua3091 among5973 their brothers251 on this side5676 Jordan3383 westward.3220 And when3588 Joshua3091 sent7971 them away also1571 to their tents,168 then he blessed1288 them,

8 And he spoke559 to them, saying,559 Return7725 with much7227 riches5233 to your tents,168 and with very3966 much7227 cattle,4735 with silver,3701 and with gold,2091 and with brass,5178 and with iron,1270 and with very3966 much7235 raiment:8008 divide2505 the spoil7998 of your enemies341 with your brothers.251

9 And the children1121 of Reuben7205 and the children1121 of Gad1410 and the half2677 tribe7626 of Manasseh4519 returned,7725 and departed3212 from the children1121 of Israel3478 out of Shiloh,7887 which834 is in the land776 of Canaan,3667 to go3212 to the country776 of Gilead,1568 to the land776 of their possession,272 whereof834 they were possessed,270 according5921 to the word6310 of the LORD3068 by the hand3027 of Moses.4872

10 And when they came935 to the borders1552 of Jordan,3383 that are in the land776 of Canaan,3667 the children1121 of Reuben7205 and the children1121 of Gad1410 and the half2677 tribe7626 of Manasseh4519 built1129 there8033 an altar4196 by Jordan,3383 a great1419 altar4196 to see4758 to.

11 And the children1121 of Israel3478 heard8085 say,559 Behold,2009 the children1121 of Reuben7205 and the children1121 of Gad1410 and the half2677 tribe7626 of Manasseh4519 have built1129 an altar4196 over413 4136 against4136 the land776 of Canaan,3667 in the borders1552 of Jordan,3383 at413 the passage5676 of the children1121 of Israel.3478

12 And when the children1121 of Israel3478 heard8085 of it, the whole3605 congregation5712 of the children1121 of Israel3478 gathered6950 themselves together at Shiloh,7887 to go5927 up to war6635 against5921 them.

13 And the children1121 of Israel3478 sent7971 to the children1121 of Reuben,7205 and to the children1121 of Gad,1410 and to the half2677 tribe7626 of Manasseh,4519 into413 the land776 of Gilead,1568 Phinehas6372 the son1121 of Eleazar499 the priest,3548

14 And with him ten6235 princes,5387 of each259 chief1 house1004 a prince5387 throughout all3605 the tribes4294 of Israel;3478 and each one376 was an head7218 of the house1004 of their fathers1 among the thousands505 of Israel.3478

15 And they came935 to the children1121 of Reuben,7205 and to the children1121 of Gad,1410 and to the half2677 tribe7626 of Manasseh,4519 to the land776 of Gilead,1568 and they spoke1696 with them, saying,559

16 Thus3541 said559 the whole3605 congregation5712 of the LORD,3068 What4100 trespass4604 is this2088 that you have committed4603 against the God430 of Israel,3478 to turn7725 away this day3117 from following310 the LORD,3068 in that you have built1129 you an altar,4196 that you might rebel4775 this day3117 against the LORD?3068

17 Is the iniquity5771 of Peor6465 too little4592 for us, from which834 we are not cleansed2891 until5704 this2088 day,3117 although there was a plague5063 in the congregation5712 of the LORD,3068

18 But that you must turn7725 away this day3117 from following310 the LORD?3068 and it will be, seeing you rebel4775 to day3117 against the LORD,3068 that to morrow4279 he will be wroth7107 with the whole3605 congregation5712 of Israel.3478

19 Notwithstanding,389 if518 the land776 of your possession272 be unclean,2931 then pass5674 you over5674 to the land776 of the possession272 of the LORD,3068 wherein834 8033 the LORD's3068 tabernacle4908 dwells,7931 and take270 possession270 among8432 us: but rebel4775 not against the LORD,3068 nor408 rebel4775 against us, in building1129 you an altar4196 beside1107 the altar4196 of the LORD3068 our God.430

20 Did not Achan5912 the son1121 of Zerah2226 commit4603 a trespass4604 in the accursed2764 thing, and wrath7110 fell1961 on5921 all3605 the congregation5712 of Israel?3478 and that man376 perished1478 not alone259 in his iniquity.5771

21 Then the children1121 of Reuben7205 and the children1121 of Gad1410 and the half2677 tribe7626 of Manasseh4519 answered,6030 and said1696 to the heads7218 of the thousands505 of Israel,3478

22 The LORD3068 God410 of gods,430 the LORD3068 God410 of gods,430 he knows,3045 and Israel3478 he shall know;3045 if518 it be in rebellion,4777 or if518 in transgression4604 against the LORD,3068 (save3467 us not this2088 day,3117)

23 That we have built1129 us an altar4196 to turn7725 from following310 the LORD,3068 or if518 to offer5927 thereon5921 burnt5930 offering 4503or meat offering, or if518 to offer6213 peace8002 offerings2077 thereon,5921 let the LORD3068 himself require1245 it;

24 And if518 we have not rather done6213 it for fear1674 of this2063 thing,1697 saying,559 In time4279 to come4279 your children1121 might speak559 to our children,1121 saying,559 What4100 have you to do with the LORD3068 God430 of Israel?3478

25 For the LORD3068 has made5414 Jordan3383 a border1366 between996 us and you, you children1121 of Reuben7205 and children1121 of Gad;1410 you have no369 part2506 in the LORD:3068 so shall your children1121 make our children1121 cease7673 from fearing3372 the LORD.3068

26 Therefore we said,559 Let us now4994 prepare6213 to build1129 us an altar,4196 not for burnt5930 offering, nor3808 for sacrifice:2077

27 But that it may be a witness5707 between996 us, and you, and our generations1755 after310 us, that we might do5647 the service5656 of the LORD3068 before6440 him with our burnt5930 offerings, and with our sacrifices,2077 and with our peace8002 offerings; that your children1121 may not say559 to our children1121 in time4279 to come,4279 You have no369 part2506 in the LORD.3068

28 Therefore said559 we, that it shall be, when3588 they should so say559 to us or to our generations1755 in time4279 to come,4279 that we may say559 again, Behold7200 the pattern8403 of the altar4196 of the LORD,3068 which834 our fathers1 made,6213 not for burnt5930 offerings, nor3808 for sacrifices;2077 but it is a witness5707 between996 us and you.

29 God forbid2486 that we should rebel4775 against the LORD,3068 and turn7725 this day3117 from following310 the LORD,3068 to build1129 an altar4196 for burnt5930 offerings,4503 for meat offerings, or for sacrifices,2077 beside905 the altar4196 of the LORD3068 our God430 that is before6440 his tabernacle.4908

30 And when Phinehas6372 the priest,3548 and the princes5387 of the congregation5712 and heads7218 of the thousands505 of Israel3478 which834 were with him, heard8085 the words1697 that the children1121 of Reuben7205 and the children1121 of Gad1410 and the children1121 of Manasseh4519 spoke,1696 it pleased3190 5869 them.

31 And Phinehas6372 the son1121 of Eleazar499 the priest3548 said559 to the children1121 of Reuben,7205 and to the children1121 of Gad,1410 and to the children1121 of Manasseh,4519 This day3117 we perceive3045 that the LORD3068 is among8432 us, because834 you have not committed4603 this2088 trespass4604 against the LORD:3068 now227 you have delivered5337 the children1121 of Israel3478 out of the hand3027 of the LORD.3068

32 And Phinehas6372 the son1121 of Eleazar499 the priest,3548 and the princes,5387 returned7725 from the children1121 of Reuben,7205 and from the children1121 of Gad,1410 out of the land776 of Gilead,1568 to the land776 of Canaan,3667 to the children1121 of Israel,3478 and brought7725 them word1697 again.7725

33 And the thing1697 pleased3190 5869 the children1121 of Israel;3478 and the children1121 of Israel3478 blessed1288 God,430 and did not intend559 to go5927 up against5921 them in battle,6635 to destroy7843 the land776 wherein834 the children1121 of Reuben7205 and Gad1410 dwelled.3427

34 And the children1121 of Reuben7205 and the children1121 of Gad1410 called7121 the altar4196 Ed:5707 for it shall be a witness5707 between996 us that the LORD3068 is God.430

Joshua

Chapter 22

1 THEN Joshua called the Reubenites and the Gadites and the half tribe of Manasseh,

1 Then227 Joshua3091 called7121 the Reubenites,7206 and the Gadites,1425 and the half2677 tribe4294 of Manasseh,4519

2 And said to them, You have kept all that Moses the servant of the LORD commanded you, and have obeyed my voice in all that I have commanded you;

2 And said559 to them, You have kept8104 all3605 that Moses4872 the servant5650 of the LORD3068 commanded6680 you, and have obeyed8085 my voice6963 in all3605 that I commanded6680 you:

3 You have not deserted your brethren these many days even to this time, but have kept the commandments of the LORD your God.

3 You have not left5800 your brothers251 these428 many7227 days3117 to this2088 day,3117 but have kept8104 the charge4931 of the commandment4687 of the LORD3068 your God.430

4 And now the LORD your God has given rest to your brethren, as he promised them; therefore now return, and go to your towns and to the land of your possession, which Moses the servant of the LORD gave you on the other side of the Jordan to the east.

4 And now6258 the LORD3068 your God430 has given rest5117 to your brothers,251 as he promised1696 them: therefore now6258 return6437 you, and get3212 you to your tents,168 and to the land776 of your possession,272 which834 Moses4872 the servant5650 of the LORD3068 gave5414 you on the other5676 side5676 Jordan.3383

5 But only take diligent heed to observe the commandments and the laws which Moses the servant of the LORD charged you, to love the LORD your God, to keep his commandments, and to cleave to him, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul.

5 But take diligent3966 heed8104 to do6213 the commandment4687 and the law,8451 which834 Moses4872 the servant5650 of the LORD3068 charged6680 you, to love157 the LORD3068 your God,430 and to walk3212 in all3605 his ways,1870 and to keep8104 his commandments,4687 and to hold1692 to him, and to serve5647 him with all3605 your heart3824 and with all3605 your soul.5315

6 So Joshua blessed them and sent them away; and they went to their towns.

6 So Joshua3091 blessed1288 them, and sent7971 them away: and they went3212 to their tents.168

7 Now to the half of the tribe of Manasseh Moses had given an inheritance in Mathnin; but to the other half thereof Joshua had given an inheritance among their brethren on this side of the Jordan to the west. And when Joshua sent them away to their towns, he blessed them;

7 Now to the one half2677 of the tribe7626 of Manasseh4519 Moses4872 had given5414 possession in Bashan:1316 but to the other half2677 thereof gave5414 Joshua3091 among5973 their brothers251 on this side5676 Jordan3383 westward.3220 And when3588 Joshua3091 sent7971 them away also1571 to their tents,168 then he blessed1288 them,

8 And he spoke to them, saying, Return to your towns and to the land of your inheritance with much wealth and with very many cattle, with silver, with gold, with brass, with iron, and with very much clothing; divide the spoil of your enemies with your brethren.

8 And he spoke559 to them, saying,559 Return7725 with much7227 riches5233 to your tents,168 and with very3966 much7227 cattle,4735 with silver,3701 and with gold,2091 and with brass,5178 and with iron,1270 and with very3966 much7235 raiment:8008 divide2505 the spoil7998 of your enemies341 with your brothers.251

9 So the Reubenites and the Gadites and the half tribe of Manasseh returned, and departed from the children of Israel out of Shiloh, which is in the land of Canaan, to go to the land of Gilead, to the land of their possessions, in which they were given an inheritance, according to the word of the LORD by the hand of Moses.

9 And the children1121 of Reuben7205 and the children1121 of Gad1410 and the half2677 tribe7626 of Manasseh4519 returned,7725 and departed3212 from the children1121 of Israel3478 out of Shiloh,7887 which834 is in the land776 of Canaan,3667 to go3212 to the country776 of Gilead,1568 to the land776 of their possession,272 whereof834 they were possessed,270 according5921 to the word6310 of the LORD3068 by the hand3027 of Moses.4872

10 And when they came to Gilgal, which is by the side of the Jordan in the land of Canaan, the Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half tribe of Manasseh built there an altar by the Jordan, a large and remarkable altar.

10 And when they came935 to the borders1552 of Jordan,3383 that are in the land776 of Canaan,3667 the children1121 of Reuben7205 and the children1121 of Gad1410 and the half2677 tribe7626 of Manasseh4519 built1129 there8033 an altar4196 by Jordan,3383 a great1419 altar4196 to see4758 to.

11 And the children of Israel heard it said, Behold, the Reubenites and the Gadites and the half tribe of Manasseh have built an altar at the border of the land of Canaan, in Gilgal which is by the side of the Jordan, in the land of the children of Israel.

11 And the children1121 of Israel3478 heard8085 say,559 Behold,2009 the children1121 of Reuben7205 and the children1121 of Gad1410 and the half2677 tribe7626 of Manasseh4519 have built1129 an altar4196 over413 4136 against4136 the land776 of Canaan,3667 in the borders1552 of Jordan,3383 at413 the passage5676 of the children1121 of Israel.3478

12 Then the whole congregation of the children of Israel gathered themselves together at Shiloh to go to war against them.

12 And when the children1121 of Israel3478 heard8085 of it, the whole3605 congregation5712 of the children1121 of Israel3478 gathered6950 themselves together at Shiloh,7887 to go5927 up to war6635 against5921 them.

13 And the children of Israel sent to the Reubenites and to the Gadites and to the half tribe of Manasseh, into the land of Gilead, Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest,

13 And the children1121 of Israel3478 sent7971 to the children1121 of Reuben,7205 and to the children1121 of Gad,1410 and to the half2677 tribe7626 of Manasseh,4519 into413 the land776 of Gilead,1568 Phinehas6372 the son1121 of Eleazar499 the priest,3548

14 And with him ten princes, one prince from every tribe of Israel; and these men were chiefs of the armies of Israel.

14 And with him ten6235 princes,5387 of each259 chief1 house1004 a prince5387 throughout all3605 the tribes4294 of Israel;3478 and each one376 was an head7218 of the house1004 of their fathers1 among the thousands505 of Israel.3478

15 And they came to the Reubenites and to the Gadites and to the half tribe of Manasseh, in the land of Gilead, and they spoke with them, saying.

15 And they came935 to the children1121 of Reuben,7205 and to the children1121 of Gad,1410 and to the half2677 tribe7626 of Manasseh,4519 to the land776 of Gilead,1568 and they spoke1696 with them, saying,559

16 Thus says the whole congregation of the LORD, What treachery is this which you have committed against the God of Israel, in turning away from following the LORD, in that you have builded yourselves an altar, that you might abandon the worship of the LORD?

16 Thus3541 said559 the whole3605 congregation5712 of the LORD,3068 What4100 trespass4604 is this2088 that you have committed4603 against the God430 of Israel,3478 to turn7725 away this day3117 from following310 the LORD,3068 in that you have built1129 you an altar,4196 that you might rebel4775 this day3117 against the LORD?3068

17 Is the iniquity of Peor not enough for us, from which we are not cleansed until this day, although there was a plague in the congregation of the LORD?

17 Is the iniquity5771 of Peor6465 too little4592 for us, from which834 we are not cleansed2891 until5704 this2088 day,3117 although there was a plague5063 in the congregation5712 of the LORD,3068

18 And as for you, when you turned away this day from the worship of the LORD, tomorrow the anger will be against the whole congregation of Israel.

18 But that you must turn7725 away this day3117 from following310 the LORD?3068 and it will be, seeing you rebel4775 to day3117 against the LORD,3068 that to morrow4279 he will be wroth7107 with the whole3605 congregation5712 of Israel.3478

19 If, however, the land of your possession is unclean, then pass over to the land of the possession of the LORD, where the LORD'S tabernacle dwells, and inherit land among us; but do not disdain the worship of the LORD, nor rebel against us by building for yourselves an altar beside the altar of the LORD the God of Israel.

19 Notwithstanding,389 if518 the land776 of your possession272 be unclean,2931 then pass5674 you over5674 to the land776 of the possession272 of the LORD,3068 wherein834 8033 the LORD's3068 tabernacle4908 dwells,7931 and take270 possession270 among8432 us: but rebel4775 not against the LORD,3068 nor408 rebel4775 against us, in building1129 you an altar4196 beside1107 the altar4196 of the LORD3068 our God.430

20 Did you not see that when Achar the son of Carmi coveted and took the devoted things, wrath fell upon the whole congregation of Israel? He was but one man, yet he devoured us all in his iniquity.

20 Did not Achan5912 the son1121 of Zerah2226 commit4603 a trespass4604 in the accursed2764 thing, and wrath7110 fell1961 on5921 all3605 the congregation5712 of Israel?3478 and that man376 perished1478 not alone259 in his iniquity.5771

21 Then the Reubenites the Gadites and the half tribe of Manasseh answered and said to Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest and to the heads of the armies of Israel,

21 Then the children1121 of Reuben7205 and the children1121 of Gad1410 and the half2677 tribe7626 of Manasseh4519 answered,6030 and said1696 to the heads7218 of the thousands505 of Israel,3478

22 The LORD is the God of gods, the God of gods is the LORD, and he is our God, and he knows Israel and he knows us also; if we shall depart from him, or if we shall transgress against the worship of the LORD in doing this thing, then let him not save us this day.

22 The LORD3068 God410 of gods,430 the LORD3068 God410 of gods,430 he knows,3045 and Israel3478 he shall know;3045 if518 it be in rebellion,4777 or if518 in transgression4604 against the LORD,3068 (save3467 us not this2088 day,3117)

23 And if we have built us an altar to turn from the worship of the LORD, or to offer upon it burnt offerings, or use it for any other service, let the LORD himself seek vengeance against us;

23 That we have built1129 us an altar4196 to turn7725 from following310 the LORD,3068 or if518 to offer5927 thereon5921 burnt5930 offering 4503or meat offering, or if518 to offer6213 peace8002 offerings2077 thereon,5921 let the LORD3068 himself require1245 it;

24 And if we have not rather done this thing because of reverence to him, so that in time to come your children might not say to our children, What have you to do with the LORD God of Israel, O you Reubenites and Gadites?

24 And if518 we have not rather done6213 it for fear1674 of this2063 thing,1697 saying,559 In time4279 to come4279 your children1121 might speak559 to our children,1121 saying,559 What4100 have you to do with the LORD3068 God430 of Israel?3478

25 For the LORD has made the Jordan a boundary between us and you; now therefore you have no part in the LORD; so in time to come shall your children make our children cease from worshipping the LORD.

25 For the LORD3068 has made5414 Jordan3383 a border1366 between996 us and you, you children1121 of Reuben7205 and children1121 of Gad;1410 you have no369 part2506 in the LORD:3068 so shall your children1121 make our children1121 cease7673 from fearing3372 the LORD.3068

26 Therefore we said, Let us now prepare to build us an altar, not for burnt offering, nor for sacrifice;

26 Therefore we said,559 Let us now4994 prepare6213 to build1129 us an altar,4196 not for burnt5930 offering, nor3808 for sacrifice:2077

27 But that it may be a witness between us and you, and between our generations after us, and between ourselves and our generations after us, that we might do the service of the LORD before him with our burnt offerings and with our sacrifices and with our peace offerings, in the place where the LORD chooses to dwell; so that your children may not say to our children in time to come, You have no part in the LORD.

27 But that it may be a witness5707 between996 us, and you, and our generations1755 after310 us, that we might do5647 the service5656 of the LORD3068 before6440 him with our burnt5930 offerings, and with our sacrifices,2077 and with our peace8002 offerings; that your children1121 may not say559 to our children1121 in time4279 to come,4279 You have no369 part2506 in the LORD.3068

28 Therefore we said that it shall be, if they should ever speak to us or to our generations in time to come, then we may say to them, Behold the pattern of the altar of the LORD which our fathers made not for burnt offerings, nor for sacrifices; but to be a witness between us and you.

28 Therefore said559 we, that it shall be, when3588 they should so say559 to us or to our generations1755 in time4279 to come,4279 that we may say559 again, Behold7200 the pattern8403 of the altar4196 of the LORD,3068 which834 our fathers1 made,6213 not for burnt5930 offerings, nor3808 for sacrifices;2077 but it is a witness5707 between996 us and you.

29 God forbid that we should reject the worship of the LORD, and turn away from revering him, and build for ourselves an altar for burnt offerings, for gift offerings, or for sacrifices, besides the altar of the LORD God of Israel that is before his tabernacle.

29 God forbid2486 that we should rebel4775 against the LORD,3068 and turn7725 this day3117 from following310 the LORD,3068 to build1129 an altar4196 for burnt5930 offerings,4503 for meat offerings, or for sacrifices,2077 beside905 the altar4196 of the LORD3068 our God430 that is before6440 his tabernacle.4908

30 And when Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest and the princes of the congregation and the heads of the armies of Israel who were with him heard the words that the Reubenites and the Gadites and the half tribe of Manasseh spoke, it pleased them.

30 And when Phinehas6372 the priest,3548 and the princes5387 of the congregation5712 and heads7218 of the thousands505 of Israel3478 which834 were with him, heard8085 the words1697 that the children1121 of Reuben7205 and the children1121 of Gad1410 and the children1121 of Manasseh4519 spoke,1696 it pleased3190 5869 them.

31 And Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest said to the Reubenites and to the Gadites and to the half tribe of Manasseh. This day we know that the LORD is among us, because you have not committed this trespass against the LORD; now you have delivered the children of Israel, that the hand of the LORD might not be against them with wrath.

31 And Phinehas6372 the son1121 of Eleazar499 the priest3548 said559 to the children1121 of Reuben,7205 and to the children1121 of Gad,1410 and to the children1121 of Manasseh,4519 This day3117 we perceive3045 that the LORD3068 is among8432 us, because834 you have not committed4603 this2088 trespass4604 against the LORD:3068 now227 you have delivered5337 the children1121 of Israel3478 out of the hand3027 of the LORD.3068

32 Then Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest, and the princes who were with him, returned from the Reubenites and from the Gadites and the Manashites, out of the land of Gilead, to the land of Canaan, to the children of Israel, and brought them an answer.

32 And Phinehas6372 the son1121 of Eleazar499 the priest,3548 and the princes,5387 returned7725 from the children1121 of Reuben,7205 and from the children1121 of Gad,1410 out of the land776 of Gilead,1568 to the land776 of Canaan,3667 to the children1121 of Israel,3478 and brought7725 them word1697 again.7725

33 And the answer pleased the children of Israel; and the children of Israel blessed God, and decided not to go up against them to battle to destroy the land wherein the Reubenites and the Gadites and the Manashites dwelt.

33 And the thing1697 pleased3190 5869 the children1121 of Israel;3478 and the children1121 of Israel3478 blessed1288 God,430 and did not intend559 to go5927 up against5921 them in battle,6635 to destroy7843 the land776 wherein834 the children1121 of Reuben7205 and Gad1410 dwelled.3427

34 And the Reubenites and the Gadites and the Manashites called the altar which they had made, The Altar of Testimony, for it is a witness between us that the LORD is the only God.

34 And the children1121 of Reuben7205 and the children1121 of Gad1410 called7121 the altar4196 Ed:5707 for it shall be a witness5707 between996 us that the LORD3068 is God.430
