32
We will cross over armed before the Lord into the land of Canaan, but the possession of our inheritance shall remain with us on this side of the Jordan."

And the children of Gad built Dibon and Ataroth and Aroer,
35
Atroth and Shophan and Jazer and Jogbehah,

Beth Nimrah and Beth Haran, fortified cities, and folds for sheep.
37
And the children of Reuben built Heshbon and Elealeh and Kirjathaim,
38
Nebo and Baal Meon (their names being changed) and Shibmah; and they gave other names to the cities which they built.
39
And the children of Machir the son of Manasseh went to Gilead and took it, and dispossessed the Amorites who were in it.

41
Also Jair the son of Manasseh went and took its small towns, and called them Havoth Jair.
