- 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."
