And when the children of Israel heard of it ,
the whole congregation of the children of Israel gathered themselves together at Shiloh ,
to go up to war against them .
*
And the children of Israel sent unto the children of Reuben R @#
uwben #,
and to the children of Gad ,
and to the half tribe of Manasseh ,
into the land of Gilead Gil #

Phinehas the son of Eleazar #
El #
azar #
the priest ,
*
And with him ten princes ,
of each #
H259chief nasiy #
house a prince throughout all the tribes of Israel Yisra #
el #;
and each one was an head of the house of their fathers among the thousands of Israel Yisra #
el #.

And they came unto the children of Reuben R @#
uwben #,
and to the children of Gad ,
and to the half tribe of Manasseh ,
unto the land of Gilead Gil #
ad #,
and they spake with them ,
saying ,
*
Thus saith the whole congregation of the LORD ,
What trespass is this that ye have committed against the God of Israel Yisra #
el #,
to turn away this day from following the LORD ,
in that ye have builded you an altar ,
that ye might rebel this day against the LORD ?
*
Is the iniquity of Peor too little for us ,
from which we are not cleansed until this day ,
although there was a plague in the congregation of the LORD ,
*
But that ye must turn away this day from following the LORD ?
and it will be ,
seeing ye rebel to day against the LORD ,
that to morrow he will be wroth with the whole congregation of Israel Yisra #
el #.
*
Notwithstanding ,
if the land of your possession be unclean ,
then pass ye over unto the land of the possession of the LORD ,
wherein the LORDS tabernacle dwelleth ,
and take possession among us :
but rebel not against the LORD ,
nor rebel against us ,
in building you an altar beside the altar of the LORD our God .
*
Did not Achan the son of Zerah commit a trespass in the accursed thing ,
and wrath fell on all the congregation of Israel Yisra #
el #?
and that man perished not alone in his iniquity .
