Numbers 32:17-19

New Century Version

¹⁷ Then our children will be in strong, walled cities, safe from the people who live in this land. Then we will prepare for war. We will help the other Israelites get their land, ¹⁸ and we will not return home until every Israelite has received his land. ¹⁹ We won’t take any of the land west of the Jordan River; our part of the land is east of the Jordan.”
