* With the other half-tribe the Reubenites and the Gadites received their inheritance , which Moses had given them , beyond the Jordan eastward , as Moses the servant of the LORD had given them : * from Aroer which is on the bank of the River Arnon , and the town that is in the midst of the ravine , and all the plain of Medeba as far as Dibon ; * all the cities of Sihon king of the Amorites , who reigned in Heshbon , as far as the border of the children of Ammon ; * Gilead , and the border of the Geshurites and Maachathites , all Mount Hermon , and all Bashan as far as Salcah ; * all the kingdom of Og in Bashan , who reigned in Ashtaroth and Edrei , who remained of the remnant of the giants ; for Moses had defeated and cast out these . * Nevertheless the children of Israel did not drive out the Geshurites or the Maachathites , but the Geshurites and the Maachathites dwell among the Israelites until this day . * Only to the tribe of Levi he had given no inheritance ; the sacrifices of the LORD God of Israel made by fire are their inheritance , as He said to them . * And Moses had given to the tribe of the children of Reuben an inheritance according to their families . * Their territory was from Aroer , which is on the bank of the River Arnon , and the city that is in the midst of the ravine , and all the plain by Medeba ; * Heshbon and all its cities that are in the plain : Dibon , Bamoth Baal , Beth Baal Meon , * Jahaza , Kedemoth , Mephaath , * Kirjathaim , Sibmah , Zereth Shahar on the mountain of the valley , * Beth Peor , the slopes of Pisgah , and Beth Jeshimoth -- * all the cities of the plain and all the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites , who reigned in Heshbon , whom Moses had struck with the princes of Midian : Evi , Rekem , Zur , Hur , and Reba , who were princes of Sihon dwelling in the country . * The children of Israel also killed with the sword Balaam the son of Beor , the soothsayer , among those who were killed by them . * And the border of the children of Reuben was the bank of the Jordan . This was the inheritance of the children of Reuben according to their families , the cities and their villages . * Moses also had given an inheritance to the tribe of Gad , to the children of Gad according to their families . * Their territory was Jazer , and all the cities of Gilead , and half the land of the Ammonites as far as Aroer , which is before Rabbah , * and from Heshbon to Ramath Mizpah and Betonim , and from Mahanaim to the border of Debir , * and in the valley Beth Haram , Beth Nimrah , Succoth , and Zaphon , the rest of the kingdom of Sihon king of Heshbon , with the Jordan as its border , as far as the edge of the Sea of Chinnereth , on the other side of the Jordan eastward . * This is the inheritance of the children of Gad according to their families , the cities and their villages . * Moses also had given an inheritance to half the tribe of Manasseh ; it was for half the tribe of the children of Manasseh according to their families : * Their territory was from Mahanaim , all Bashan , all the kingdom of Og king of Bashan , and all the towns of Jair which are in Bashan , sixty cities ; * half of Gilead , and Ashtaroth and Edrei , cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan , were for the children of Machir the son of Manasseh , for half of the children of Machir according to their families . * These are the areas which Moses had distributed as an inheritance in the plains of Moab on the other side of the Jordan , by Jericho eastward . * But to the tribe of Levi Moses had given no inheritance ; the LORD God of Israel was their inheritance , as He had said to them .
