Now the descendants of Reuben and of Gad had large numbers of livestock. When they saw the land of Jazer and Gilead, the land was a wonderful place for livestock.
2 Te dongah Gad koca rhoek neh Reuben koca rhoek te cet uh tih Moses taeng neh khosoih Eleazar taengah khaw, rhaengpuei khoboei rhoek taengah khaw a thui uh.
So the descendants of Gad and Reuben came and spoke to Moses, to Eleazar the priest, and to the leaders of the community. They said,
3 Te vaengah Ataroth neh Dibon, Jazer neh Nimrah, Heshbon neh Elealeh, Sibam, Nebo, Beon,
“This is a list of places we have surveyed: Ataroth, Dibon, Jazer, Nimrah, Heshbon, Elealeh, Sebam, Nebo, and Beon.
4 Isreal rhaengpuei kah mikhmuh ah BOEIPA loh a ngawn khohmuen te boiva kah khohmuen tih na sal rhoek taengah khaw boiva om ta,” a ti uh.
These are the lands that Yahweh attacked before the community of Israel, and they are good places for livestock. We, your servants, have a lot of livestock.”
5 Te phoeiah, “Na mik ah mikdaithen ka hmuh atah he khohmuen he na sal rhoek taengah khohut la m'paek vetih Jordan te kaimih nam paan sak pawt mako,” a ti uh.
They said, “If we have found favor in your eyes, let this land be given to us, your servants, as a possession. Do not make us cross over the Jordan.”
6 Tedae Moses loh Gad koca rhoek taeng neh Reuben koca rhoek taengah, “Nangmih hela na ngol uh vaengah na manuca rhoek tah caemtloek la cet uh saeh a?
Moses replied to the descendants of Gad and Reuben, “Should your brothers go to war while you settle down here?
7 BOEIPA loh amih taengah a paek khohmuen la kat ham te balae tih Israel ca rhoek kah lungbuei he a khaban la na khaban uh.
Why discourage the hearts of the people of Israel from going over into the land that Yahweh has given them?
8 Khohmuen sawt ham Kadeshbarnea lamloh amih ka tueih vaengah na pa rhoek loh he ni a. saii uh.
Your fathers did the same thing when I sent them from Kadesh Barnea to examine the land.
9 Eshkol soklong la cet uh tih khohmuen khaw a hmuh uh dae BOEIPA loh amih taengah a paek khohmuen la kun pawt ham Israel ca rhoek kah lungbuei te a khaban uh.
They went up to the Valley of Eshkol. They saw the land and then discouraged the hearts of the people of Israel so that they refused to enter the land that Yahweh had given them.
10 Amah khohnin ah BOEIPA kah thintoek sai tih a toemngam.
Yahweh's anger was kindled on that day. He took an oath and said,
11 Egypt lamkah aka lo hlang rhoek khuiah kum kul neh a so hang ca rhoek tah khohmuen te hmu uh mahpawh. Te te Abraham, Isaak taeng neh Jakob taengah ka toemngam dae kai hnukah a tlun uh moenih.
'Surely none of the men who came up out of Egypt, from twenty years old and up, will see the land about which I swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, because they have not completely followed me, except for
12 Kenizzi Jephunneh capa Kaleb neh Nun capa Joshua tah BOEIPA hnukah tlun rhoi.
Caleb son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite, and Joshua son of Nun. Only Caleb and Joshua have completely followed me.'
13 Te vaengah BOEIPA kah thintoek te Israel taengah sai tih BOEIPA mik ah boethae aka saii kah cadil boeih a cing hil amih te khosoek ah kum sawmli a poengdoe sak.
So Yahweh's anger was kindled against Israel. He made them wander around in the wilderness for forty years until all the generation who had done evil in his sight was destroyed.
14 Israel taengah BOEIPA kah thintoek thinsa te koep khoengvoep ham ni na pa rhoek yueng hlangtholh hlang kah tahoengnah dongah na pai uh he.
Look, you have risen up in your fathers' place, like just more sinful men, to add to Yahweh's burning anger toward Israel.
15 A hnuk lamloh na phael uh dongah khosoek ah amih tloeng ham koep a koei vetih he pilnam boeih he na mit uh bitni,” a ti nah.
If you turn away from following him, he will again leave Israel in the wilderness and you will have destroyed all this people.”
16 Te phoeiah a taengla mop uh tih, “Kaimih kah boiva ham boiva kah tanglung neh ka ca rhoek ham khopuei pahoi ka thoh uh mako.
So they came near Moses and said, “Allow us to build fences here for our cattle and cities for our families.
17 Tedae amih te a hmuen la ka pawk uh hil tah kaimih he Israel ca mikhmuh ah tawn uh ham ka pumcum uh bitni. Te vaengah khohmuen kah khosa rhoek mikhmuh lamkah hmuencak khopuei rhoek ah mamih kah camoe rhoek ana om saeh.
However, we ourselves will be ready and armed to go with Israel's army until we have led them into their place. But our families will live in the fortified cities because of the other people who still live in this land.
18 Israel ca rhoek khuikah hlang loh a rho a pang hlanah ka im la ka mael uh mahpawh.
We will not return to our houses until every one of the people of Israel has obtained his inheritance.
19 Jordan kah rhalvangan neh a voel kah amih neh m'phaeng uh boel saeh. Jordan khocuk ngan ah kaimih taengah kamamih kah rho om coeng,” a ti uh.
We will not inherit the land with them on the other side of the Jordan, because our inheritance is here on the east side of the Jordan.”
20 Te dongah Moses loh amih te, “He ol he na ngai uh mak atah, caemtloek ham BOEIPA mikhmuh ah na pumcum uh mak atah,
So Moses replied to them, “If you do what you say, if you arm yourselves to go before Yahweh to war,
21 Nangmih aka pumcum boeih te tah BOEIPA mikhmuh ah Jordan te a poeng vetih a thunkha rhoek te a mikhmuh lamloh a haek ni.
then every one of your armed men must cross over the Jordan before Yahweh, until he has driven out his enemies from before him
22 BOEIPA mikhmuh ah khohmuen a khoem uh coeng. Te dongah mael uh lamtah BOEIPA taeng neh Israel taengah ommongsitoe la na om uh bitni. Khohmuen he BOEIPA mikhmuh ah nangmih kah khohut la om bitni.
and the land is subdued before him. Then afterward you may return. You will be guiltless toward Yahweh and toward Israel. This land will be your possession before Yahweh.
23 Te te na saii uh pawt atah BOEIPA taengah na tholh coeng ne. Te vaengah namamih kah tholhnah loh nangmih m'hmuh bitni tila ming uh.
But if you do not do so, look, you will have sinned against Yahweh. Be sure that your sin will find you out.
24 Nangmih ham neh na camoe ham khopuei khaw, na tu ham tanglung khaw thoh uh. Tedae nangmih ka lamloh aka thoeng te rhoi uh,” a ti nah.
Build cities for your families and pens for your sheep; then do what you have said.”
25 Te phoeiah Gad koca rhoek neh Reuben koca rhoek loh Moses taengah, “Na sal rhoek long he ka boei kah a uen bangla a saii uh bitni.
The descendants of Gad and Reuben spoke to Moses and said, “Your servants will do as you, our master, commands.
26 Ka yuu rhoek neh ka ca rhoek, ka boiva neh ka rhamsa boeih tah Gilead khopuei rhoek ah pahoi om uh bitni.
Our little ones, our wives, our flocks, and all our livestock will stay there in the cities of Gilead.
27 Ka boei kah na thui bangla, BOEIPA mikhmuh ah caempuei la aka pumcum na sal rhoek tah caemtloek la boeih kat bitni ni,” a ti uh.
However, we, your servants, will cross over before Yahweh to battle, every man who is armed for war, as you, our master, say.”
28 Amih kongah Moses loh khosoih Eleazar, Nun capa Joshua neh Israel ca rhoek kah koca, a napa boeilu rhoek te a uen.
So Moses gave instructions concerning them to Eleazar the priest, to Joshua son of Nun, and to the leaders of the ancestor's clans in the tribes of the people of Israel.
29 Te vaengah Moses loh amih te, “BOEIPA mikhmuh ah caemtloek la aka pumcum Gad koca rhoek neh Reuben ca boeih tah nangmih taengah Jordan te kat uh coeng. Nangmih mikhmuh ah khohmuen te a khoem uh dongah Gilead khohmuen te amih taengah khohut la pae.
Moses said to them, “If the descendants of Gad and Reuben cross over the Jordan with you, every man who is armed to battle before Yahweh, and if the land is subdued before you, then you will give them the land of Gilead as a possession.
30 Nangmih taengah aka pumcum uh khaw a kat uh pawt atah Kanaan khohmuen ah tah nangmih khui kah te bawn uh saeh,” a ti nah.
But if they do not cross over with you armed, then they will acquire their possessions among you in the land of Canaan.”
31 Gad koca rhoek neh Reuben koca rhoek loh a doo uh tih, “BOEIPA loh na sal rhoek taengah a thui bangla ka saii uh tangloeng bitni.
So the descendants of Gad and Reuben answered and said, “As Yahweh has said to us, your servants, this is what we will do.
32 Kaimih BOEIPA mikhmuh ah aka pumcum rhoek tah Kanaan khohmuen la ka kat uh ni. Tedae Jordan rhalvang he tah kaimih kah rho neh kaimih ham khohut la om saeh,” a ti uh.
We will cross over armed before Yahweh into the land of Canaan, but our possessed inheritance will remain with us on this side of the Jordan.”
33 Te dongah Moses loh amih, Gad koca rhoek taeng neh Reuben koca rhoek taengah khaw, Joseph capa Manasseh koca hlangvang taengah khaw, Amori manghai Sihon kah ram, Bashan manghai Oga kah ram neh khohmuen, khohmuen kaepvai khopuei rhibawn kah a khopuei te a paek.
So to the descendants of Gad and Reuben, and also to the half tribe of Manasseh son of Joseph, Moses gave the kingdom of Sihon, king of the Amorites, and of Og, king of Bashan. He gave to them the land, and distributed to them all its cities with their borders, the cities of the land around them.

Nebo, Baal Meon—their names were later changed, and Sibmah. They gave other names to the cities that they rebuilt.

Then Moses gave Gilead to Machir son of Manasseh, and his people settled there.
