Joshua 1:12-15

Then Joshua addressed the Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh: “Remember the words that YAHWEH’s servant Moses commanded you: ‘YAHWEH your God is giving you this land on the east side of the Jordan as your homeland.’ Therefore, your wives, your little ones, and your livestock may remain here, but all your valiant warriors must cross over with us armed. They will take the lead and help their brothers until they take possession of the land that YAHWEH your God is giving them as their homeland. Afterward, you will be free to return to your own land and possess the land that Moses, YAHWEH’s servant, gave you here on the east side of the Jordan.”
