With the other half of the tribe of Manasseh, the Reubenites and Gadites had received the inheritance Moses gave them beyond the Jordan to the east, just as Moses the LORD’s servant had given them:

You make a spacious place beneath me for my steps, and my ankles do not give way.

and all the cities of King Sihon of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon, to the border of the Ammonites;

He also said: Blessed be the LORD, the God of Shem; Let Canaan be Shem’s slave.Let God extend Japheth; let Japheth dwell in the tents of Shem; let Canaan be Shem’s slave.

To the tribe of the Gadites by their clans, Moses gavethis as their territory: Jazer and all the cities of Gilead, and half the land of the Ammonites to Aroer, near Rabbah;from Heshbon to Ramath-mizpeh and Betonim, and from Mahanaim to the border of Debir;in the valley: Beth-haram, Beth-nimrah, Succoth, and Zaphon— the rest of the kingdom of King Sihon of Heshbon. Their land also included the Jordan and its territory as far as the edge of the Sea of Chinnereth on the east side of the Jordan.This was the inheritance of the Gadites by their clans, with the cities and their settlements.

From across the Jordan— from the Reubenites, Gadites, and half the tribe of Manasseh: 120,000 men equipped with all the military weapons of war.All these warriors, lined up in battle formation, came to Hebron wholeheartedly determined to make David king over all Israel. All the rest of Israel was also of one mind to make David king.

He brought me out to a spacious place; he rescued me because he delighted in me.

Jabez called out to the God of Israel,“ If only you would bless me, extend my border, let your hand be with me, and keep me from harm, so that I will not experience pain.” And God granted his request.

Some Gadites defected to David at his stronghold in the desert. They were valiant warriors, trained for battle, expert with shield and spear. Their faces were like the faces of lions, and they were as swift as gazelles on the mountains.Ezer was the chief, Obadiah second, Eliab third,Mishmannah fourth, Jeremiah fifth,Attai sixth, Eliel seventh,Johanan eighth, Elzabad ninth,Jeremiah tenth, and Machbannai eleventh.These Gadites were army commanders; the least of them was a match for a hundred, and the greatest of them for a thousand.

The descendants of Reuben and Gad and half the tribe of Manasseh had 44,760 warriors who could serve in the army— men who carried shield and sword, drew the bow, and were trained for war.They waged war against the Hagrites, Jetur, Naphish, and Nodab.They received help against these enemies because they cried out to God in battle, and the Hagrites and all their allies were handed over to them. He was receptive to their prayer because they trusted in him.They captured the Hagrites’ livestock— fifty thousand of their camels, two hundred fifty thousand sheep, and two thousand donkeys— as well as one hundred thousand people.
