12 So at that time we took possession of this land. To the Reubenites and Gadites (a troop / fortune) I gave the land beyond Aroer (ruins) along the Arnon (rushing stream) Valley, and half the hill country of Gilead (rocky region), along with its cities. 13 To the half-tribe of Manasseh (causing to forget) I gave the rest of Gilead (rocky region) and all of Bashan (fruitful), the kingdom of Og (long-necked). (The entire region of Argob (heap of clods), the whole territory of Bashan, used to be called the land of the Rephaim.) 14 Jair (he enlightens), a descendant of Manasseh (causing to forget), took the whole region of Argob (heap of clods) as far as the border of the Geshurites and Maacathites (she has pressed). He renamed Bashan (fruitful) after himself, Havvoth-jair (villages of Jair), by which it is called to this day. 15 To Machir (sold) I gave Gilead (rocky region), 16 and to the Reubenites and Gadites (a troop / fortune) I gave the territory from Gilead (rocky region) to the Arnon (rushing stream) Valley (the middle of the valley was the border) and up to the Jabbok (emptying) River, the border of the Ammonites (tribal).
