Numbers 32:6 Context
4Euen the countrey which the Lord smote before the Congregation of Israel, is a land for cattell, and thy seruants haue cattell. 5Wherefore, said they, if wee haue found grace in thy sight, let this lande be giuen vnto thy seruants for a possession, and bring vs not ouer Iordane. 6¶ And Moses said vnto the children of Gad, and to the children of Reuben, Shall your brethren goe to warre, and shall ye sit here? 7And wherefore discourage yee the heart of the children of Israel from going ouer into the lande, which the Lord hath giuen them? 8Thus did your fathers, when I sent them from Kadesh Barnea to see the land.
