Joshua 22:31-33
Lexham English Bible
31 Phinehas the priest, son of Eleazar, said to the descendants[a] of Reuben, Gad, and Manasseh, “Today we know that Yahweh is among us, because you have not committed this treachery against Yahweh. Therefore you have rescued the Israelites[b] from the hand of Yahweh.”
32 And Phinehas the priest, son of Eleazar, and the leaders returned from the descendants[c] of Reuben and Gad, from the land of Gilead, to the land of Canaan to the Israelites,[d] and they gave them their report.[e] 33 The report satisfied the Israelites;[f] they blessed God, and they did not speak of going up for battle against them to destroy the land in which the descendants[g] of Reuben and Gad were living.[h]
