Numbers 32:22

Read in context

Numbers 32:20–24 · Berean Standard Bible

20 Moses replied, “If you will do this—if you will arm yourselves before the LORD for battle,

21 and if every one of your armed men crosses the Jordan before the LORD, until He has driven His enemies out before Him,

22 then when the land is subdued before the LORD, you may return and be free of obligation to the LORD and to Israel. And this land will belong to you as a possession before the LORD.

23 But if you do not do this, you will certainly sin against the LORD—and be assured that your sin will find you out.

24 Build cities for your little ones and folds for your flocks, but do what you have promised.”
