Settlement and City Building

34

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

35

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

36

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

37

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

38

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

39

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

40

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

41

And 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.

42

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