Numbers 32:25-27

New International Reader's Version

²⁵ The people of Gad and Reuben spoke to Moses. They said, “We will do just as you command. ²⁶ Our children and wives will remain here in the cities of Gilead. So will our flocks and herds. ²⁷ But we will prepare ourselves for battle. We’ll go across the Jordan River and fight for the Lord. We will do just as you have said.”
