Joshua 22:4-9
22:4 Now the
Lord your God has made your fellow Israelites secure,
just as he promised them. So now you may turn around and go to your homes
in your own land
which Moses the
Lord’s servant assigned to you east of the Jordan.
22:5 But carefully obey the commands and instructions Moses the
Lord’s servant gave you. Love
the
Lord your God, follow all his instructions,
obey
his commands, be loyal to him,
and serve him with all your heart and being!”
22:6 Joshua rewarded them and sent them on their way; they returned to their homes.
22:7 (Now to one half-tribe of Manasseh, Moses had assigned land in Bashan; and to the other half Joshua had assigned land on the west side of the Jordan with their fellow Israelites.) When Joshua sent them home, he rewarded them,
22:8 saying, “Take home great wealth, a lot of cattle, silver, gold, bronze, iron, and a lot of clothing. Divide up the goods captured from your enemies with your brothers.”
22:9 So the Reubenites, Gadites, and half-tribe of Manasseh left the Israelites in Shiloh in the land of Canaan and headed home to their own land in Gilead, which they acquired by the Lord’s command through Moses.
