31 And Moshe and El-Azar the kohen did as vuvh
commanded Moshe.
32 And the spoils, being the rest of the plunder which the
men of war had caught, was six hundred seventy five
thousand sheep,
33 And seventy two thousand cattle,
34 And sixty one thousand donkeys,
35 And thirty two thousand persons in all, of women that
had not known a man by lying with him.
36 And the half, which was the portion of those that went
out to war, was in number three hundred thirty seven
thousand five hundred sheep:
37 And vuvh's tribute of the sheep was six hundred
seventy five.
38 And the cattle were thirty six thousand; of which
vuvh's tribute was seventy-two.
39 And the donkeys were thirty thousand five hundred; of
which vuvh's tribute was sixty one.
40 And the persons were sixteen thousand; of which
vuvh's tribute was thirty-two persons.
41 And Moshe gave the tribute, which was vuvh's kadosh
offering, to El-Azar the kohen, as vuvh commanded
Moshe.
42 And of the children of Yisrael's half, which Moshe
divided from the men that were at war,
43 Now the half that belonged to the congregation was
three hundred thirty seven thousand five hundred sheep,
44 And thirty six thousand cattle,
45 And thirty thousand five hundred donkeys,
46 And sixteen thousand persons;
47 Even from the children of Yisrael's half, Moshe took
one portion of fifty, both of man and of beast, and gave
them to the Lewiym, who kept the duty of the Tabernacle
of vuvh; as vuvh commanded Moshe.
48 And the officers, who were over thousands of the
army, the captains of thousands, and captains of hundreds,
came near to Moshe:
49 And they said to Moshe, Your avadim have taken the
census of the men of war who are under our duty, and
there lacks not one man among us.
50 We have therefore brought an offering for vuvh, what
every man has gotten, of jewels of gold, chains, and
bracelets, rings, earrings, and tablets, to make a keporah
for our beings before vuvh.
51 And Moshe and El-Azar the kohen took the gold from
them, even all the fashioned jewels.
52 And all the gold of the offering that they offered up to
vuvh, from the captains of thousands, and of the captains
of hundreds, was sixteen thousand seven hundred fifty
shekels.
53 For the men of war had taken spoil, every man for
himself.
54 And Moshe and El-Azar the kohen took the gold of the
captains of thousands and of hundreds, and brought it into
the Tabernacle of the congregation for a memorial for the
children of Yisrael before vuvh.
32
Now the children of Reuven and the children of Gad
had a very great multitude of cattle: and when they saw
the land of Yazer, and the land of Gilad, that the place
was a tov place for cattle;
2 The children of Gad and the children of Reuven came
and spoke to Moshe, and to El-Azar the kohen, and to the

leaders of the congregation, saying,
3 Ataroth, and Divon, and Yazer, and Nimrah, and
Cheshbon, and Elealeh, and Shevam, and Nevo, and
Beon,
4 Even the country which vuvh smote before the
congregation of Yisrael, is a land for cattle, and your
avadim have cattle:
5 Therefore, they said, If we have found favor in your
sight, let this land be given to your avadim for a
possession, and bring us not over the Yarden River.
6 And Moshe said to the children of Gad and to the
children of Reuven, Shall your brothers go to war, while
you shall sit here?
7 And why do you discourage the lev of the children of
Yisrael from going over into the land that vuvh has given
them?
8 This did your ahvot, when I sent them from Kadesh-
Barnea to see the land.
9 For when they went up to the Valley of Eshcol, and saw
the land, they discouraged the levim of the children of
Yisrael, that they should not go into the land that vuvh
had given them.
10 And vuvh's anger was lit at the same time, and He
swore, saying,
11 Surely none of the men that came up out of Mitzrayim,
from twenty years old and upward, shall see the land
which I swore to Avraham, to Yitzchak, and to Yaakov;
because they have not fully followed Me:
12 Except Kalev the son of Yephunneh the Kenezite, 521
and Yahoshua the son of Nun: for they have wholly
followed vuvh.
13 And vuvh's anger was lit against Yisrael, and He made
them wander in the wilderness forty years, until all the
generation, that had done evil in the sight of vuvh, was
consumed.
14 And, see, now you have risen up in your abba’s stead,
an increase of sinful men, to add more to the fierce anger
of vuvh towards Yisrael.
15 For if you turn away from after Him, He will yet again
leave them in the wilderness; and you shall destroy this
entire people.
16 And they came near to him, and said, We will build
sheepfolds here for our cattle, and cities for our little
ones:
17 But we ourselves will go ready armed before the
children of Yisrael, until we have brought them to their
place: and our little ones shall dwell in the fortified cities
because of the inhabitants of the land.
18 We will not return to our houses, until the children of
Yisrael have inherited every man his inheritance. 522
19 For we will not inherit with them on the other side of
the Yarden, or beyond; because our inheritance has fallen
to us on this side of the Yarden eastward.
20 And Moshe said to them, If you will do this thing, if
you will go armed before vuvh to war,
21 And will go all of you armed over the Yarden before
vuvh, until He has driven out His enemies from
before Him,
22 And the land shall be subdued before vuvh: then
afterward you shall return, and be guiltless before vuvh,
and before Yisrael; and this land shall be your possession
before vuvh.
23 But if you will not do so, see, you will have sinned
