- 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。

- The Reubenites and Gadites, who had very large herds and flocks, saw that the lands of Jazer and Gilead were suitable for livestock.
- So they came to Moses and Eleazar the priest and to the leaders of the community, and said,
- "Ataroth, Dibon, Jazer, Nimrah, Heshbon, Elealeh, Sebam, Nebo and Beon-
- the land the LORD subdued before the people of Israel--are suitable for livestock, and your servants have livestock.
- If we have found favor in your eyes," they said, "let this land be given to your servants as our possession. Do not make us cross the Jordan."
