Numbers 32:17-19
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
17 but we ourselves will march as troops in the vanguard before the Israelites,(A) until we have led them to their destination. Meanwhile our families will remain in the fortified towns because of the land’s inhabitants. 18 We will not return to our homes until all the Israelites have taken possession of their heritage. 19 (B)But we will not claim any heritage with them across the Jordan and beyond, because we have received a heritage for ourselves on the eastern side of the Jordan.”
