12And so we took possession of this land at that time, from Aroer, which is on the edge of the wadio of Arnon, and also half of the hill country of Gilead and its towns I gave to the Reubenitesp and to the Gadites.q 13And the remainder of Gilead and all of Bashan, the kingdom of Og, I gave to the half-tribe of Manasseh, the whole region of Argob. All of that area of Bashan was called the land of the Rephaim. 14Jair the descendantr of Manasseh acquired the whole region of Argob, up to the boundary of the Geshurites and the Maacathites, and he called it,s that is Bashan, after his own name, Havvoth Jair, as it still is today.t 15And also I gave Gilead to Makir. 16And to the Reubenitesu and to the Gaditesv I gave, from Gilead up to the wadiw of Arnon, the middle of the wadix as a boundary and up to the Jabbok River,y the boundary of the Ammonites.z 17And the Jordan Valleya with the Jordan River as its boundary, from Kinnerethb up to the Sea of the Arabah, the Salt Sea,c with the slopes of Pisgah toward the east.

18“And I charged you all at that time when I said, “Yahweh has given you—to all of you—this land to possess. All the warriorsd shall cross over, ready to fight, before your brothers, the Israelites.e 19Only your wives and your little children and your livestock (I know that you have much livestock)f must stay in your towns that I have given you, 20until Yahweh shall give rest to your brothers as he did to you, and also they take possession of the land that Yahweh your God is giving to them beyond the Jordan; then they may return, each one to his possession that I have given to them.
