- But to the Reubenites and the Gadites I gave the territory extending from Gilead down to the Arnon Gorge (the middle of the gorge being the border) and out to the Jabbok River, which is the border of the Ammonites.
- Its western border was the Jordan in the Arabah, from Kinnereth to the Sea of the Arabah (the Salt Sea ), below the slopes of Pisgah.
- I commanded you at that time: "The LORD your God has given you this land to take possession of it. But all your able-bodied men, armed for battle, must cross over ahead of your brother Israelites.
- However, your wives, your children and your livestock (I know you have much livestock) may stay in the towns I have given you,
- until the LORD gives rest to your brothers as he has to you, and they too have taken over the land that the LORD your God is giving them, across the Jordan. After that, each of you may go back to the possession I have given you."

- 從基列到亞嫩谷、以谷中為界、直到亞捫人交界的雅博河、我給了流便人、和迦得人.
- 又將亞拉巴、和靠近約但河之地、從基尼烈直到亞拉巴海、就是鹽海、並毘斯迦山根東邊之地.都給了他們。
- 那時我吩咐你們說、耶和華你們的 神、已將這地賜給你們為業.你們所有的勇士、都要帶著兵器、在你們的弟兄以色列人前面過去。
- 但你們的妻子、孩子、牲畜(我知道你們有許多的牲畜)可以住在我所賜給你們的各城裡.
- 等到你們弟兄在約但河那邊、也得耶和華你們 神所賜給他們的地、又使他們得享平安、與你們一樣、你們纔可以回到我所賜給你們為業之地。
