Joshua 22:31-33
Complete Jewish Bible

Now you have saved the people of Isra’el from the anger of Adonai.” 32 So Pinchas the son of El‘azar the cohen and the leaders returned from the descendants of Re’uven and Gad, from the land of Gil‘ad to the land of Kena‘an and the people of Isra’el, bringing word back to them. 33 What they said satisfied the people of Isra’el.
