7. So now, divide this land as an inheritance for the nine tribes and the half-tribe of Manasseh.”
8. With the other half-tribe of Manasseh, Reuben and Gad took their inheritance that Moses gave to them on the east side of the Jordan, as Moses the servant of the Lord had given them:
9. from Aroer on the bank of the River Arnon, the city in the middle of the valley, all the plain from Medeba to Dibon,
10. all the cities of King Sihon of the Amorites who reigned in Heshbon, and the land up to the Ammonite border.
11. Moses had also given them Gilead, the territory of the Geshurites and Maakathites, all of Mount Hermon, and all of Bashan as far as Salekah,
12. and in Bashan all the kingdom of Og, one of the last remnant of the giants, who reigned in Ashtaroth and Edrei. Moses struck them down and took their lands.
13. Yet the children of Israel did not drive out the Geshurites or the Maakathites, and Geshur and Maakah live among Israel until this day.
14. However Moses did not give an inheritance to the tribe of Levi. The burnt offerings of the Lord God of Israel are their inheritance, as He said to them.
15. Moses assigned land to the tribe of the Reubenites according to their clans.
16. Their territory was from Aroer on the edge of the Arnon Valley, the city in the middle of the valley, all the plain of Medeba,
17. Heshbon and all its towns in the plain: Dibon, Bamoth Baal, Beth Baal Meon,
18. Jahaz, Kedemoth, Mephaath,
19. Kiriathaim, Sibmah, Zereth Shahar on the hill of the valley,
20. Beth Peor, the slopes of Pisgah, Beth Jeshimoth,
21. all the cities of the plain, and the whole kingdom of King Sihon of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon. Moses struck him down along with the leaders of Midian, Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba, who were princes of Sihon who lived in the land.
22. The children of Israel killed Balaam son of Beor, who practiced divination, with the sword along with the rest of the slain.
23. The border of the Reubenites was the banks of the Jordan. This was the inheritance of the Reubenites according to their clans: those towns and their settlements.
