Numbers 32:1-5
1
The descendants of Re'uven and the descendants of Gad had vast quantities of livestock. When they saw that the land of Ya'zer and the land of Gil'ad were good for livestock,
2
the descendants of Gad and of Re'uven came and spoke to Moshe, El'azar the cohen and the community leaders. They said,
3
"'Atarot, Divon, Ya'zer, Nimrah, Heshbon, El'aleh, S'vam, N'vo and Be'on,
4
the country that ADONAI conquered before the community of Isra'el, is livestock country; and your servants have livestock.
5
