Moses States the Conditions

20

Moses said to them, “If you will do this thing, if you will arm yourselves to go before the LORD to the war,

21

and every armed man of you will pass over the Jordan before the LORD, until he has driven out his enemies from before him,

22

and the land is subdued before the LORD; then afterward you shall return, and be guiltless towards the LORD, and towards Israel; and this land shall be to you for a possession before the LORD.

23

“But if you will not do so, behold, you have sinned against the LORD; and be sure your sin will find you out.

24

Build cities for your little ones, and folds for your sheep; and do that which has proceeded out of your mouth.”

25

The children of Gad and the children of Reuben spoke to Moses, saying, “Your servants will do as my lord commands.

26

Our little ones, our wives, our flocks, and all our livestock, shall be there in the cities of Gilead;

27

but your servants will pass over, every man who is armed for war, before the LORD to battle, as my lord says.”
