- Now the sons of Reuben and the sons of Gad had an exceedingly large number of livestock So when they saw the land of Jazer and the land of Gilead, that it was indeed a place suitable for livestock,
- the sons of Gad and the sons of Reuben came and spoke to Moses and to Eleazar the priest and to the leaders of the congregation, saying,
- "Ataroth, Dibon, Jazer, Nimrah, Heshbon, Elealeh, Sebam, Nebo and Beon,
- the land which the LORD conquered before the congregation of Israel, is a land for livestock, and your servants have livestock."
- They said, "If we have found favor in your sight, let this land be given to your servants as a possession; do not take us across the Jordan."

- 流便子孫、和迦得子孫的牲畜、極其眾多.他們看見雅謝地和基列地是可牧放牲畜之地、
- 就來見摩西和祭司以利亞撒、並會眾的首領、說、
- 亞大錄、底本、雅謝、寧拉、希實本、以利亞利、示班、尼波、比穩、
- 就是耶和華在以色列會眾前面所攻取之地、是可牧放牲畜之地、你僕人也有牲畜。
- 又說、我們若在你眼前蒙恩、求你把這地給我們為業、不要領我們過約但河。
