But we will prepare ourselves for battle. We’re even ready to go ahead of the Israelites. We’ll march out with them until we’ve brought them to their place.

The armed warriors from the tribes of Reuben, Gad, and the half tribe of Manasseh led the Israelites across the Jordan, just as Moses had directed.These armed men— about 40,000 strong— were ready for battle, and the Lord was with them as they crossed over to the plains of Jericho.

“ At that time I gave this command to the tribes that would live east of the Jordan:‘ Although the Lord your God has given you this land as your property, all your fighting men must cross the Jordan ahead of your Israelite relatives, armed and ready to assist them.Your wives, children, and numerous livestock, however, may stay behind in the towns I have given you.When the Lord has given security to the rest of the Israelites, as he has to you, and when they occupy the land the Lord your God is giving them across the Jordan River, then you may all return here to the land I have given you.’

He said,“ The men of Gad and Reuben who are armed for battle must cross the Jordan with you to fight for the Lord. If they do, give them the land of Gilead as their property when the land is conquered.But if they refuse to arm themselves and cross over with you, then they must accept land with the rest of you in the land of Canaan.”The tribes of Gad and Reuben said again,“ We are your servants, and we will do as the Lord has commanded!We will cross the Jordan into Canaan fully armed to fight for the Lord, but our property will be here on this side of the Jordan.”
