32:4 Even the country which the LORD smote before the congregation of Israel, is a land for cattle, and thy servants have cattle:
32:5 Wherefore, said they, if we have found grace in thy sight, let this land be given unto thy servants for a possession, and bring us not over Jordan.
32:6 And Moses said unto the children of Gad and to the children of Reuben, Shall your brethren go to war, and shall ye sit here?
