13 Moses commanded the Israelites: "Assign this land by lot as an inheritance. The Lord has ordered that it be given to the nine and a half tribes,

14 because the families of the tribe of Reuben, the tribe of Gad and the half- tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance.

15 These two and a half tribes have received their inheritance on the east side of the Jordan of Jericho, toward the sunrise."

16 The Lord said to Moses,

17 "These are the names of the men who are to assign the land for you as an inheritance: Eleazar the priest and Joshua son of Nun.

18 And appoint one leader from each tribe to help assign the land.
