Numbers 32:33–42

³³Moses therefore gave to the children of Gad and of Ruben, and to the half tribe of Manasses the son of Joseph, the kingdom of Sehon king of the Amorrhites, and the kingdom of Og king of Basan, and their land and the cities thereof round about.

³⁴And the sons of Gad built Dibon, and Ataroth, and Aroer,

³⁵And Etroth, and Sophan, and Jazer, and Jegbaa,

³⁶And Bethnemra, and Betharan, fenced cities, and folds for their cattle.

³⁷But the children of Ruben built Hesebon, and Eleale, and Cariathaim,

³⁸And Nabo, and Baalmeon (their names being changed) and Sabama: giving names to the cities which they had built.

³⁹Moreover the children of Machir, the son of Manasses, went into Galaad, and wasted it, cutting off the Amorrhites, the inhabitants thereof.

⁴⁰And Moses gave the land of Galaad to Machir the son of Manasses, and he dwelt in it.

⁴¹And Jair the son of Manasses went, and took the villages thereof, and he called them Havoth Jair, that is to say, the villages of Jair.

⁴²Nobe also went, and took Canath with the villages thereof: and he called it by his own name, Nobe.
