Numbers 32:2-5 ▼

2 the Gadites and Reubenites came to Moses and Eleazar the priest and to the leaders of the community and said,

3 “The region of Ataroth, Dibon, Jazer, Nimrah, Heshbon, Elealeh, Sebam, Nebo and Baal-meon—

4 the land which the LORD has laid low before the community of Israel, is a land for livestock, and your servants have livestock.”

5 They continued, “If we find favor with you, let this land be given to your servants as their possession. Do not make us cross the Jordan.”
