Joshua 第 22 章 - King James Strong Number Version

1

Then Joshua <H3091> called <H7121> the Reubenites, <H7206> and the Gadites, <H1425> and the half <H2677> tribe <H4294> of Manasseh, <H4519>

2

And said <H0559> unto them, Ye have kept <H8104> all that Moses <H4872> the servant <H5650> of the LORD <H3068> commanded <H6680> you, and have obeyed <H8085> my voice <H6963> in all that I commanded <H6680> you:

3

Ye have not left <H5800> your brethren <H0251> these many <H7227> days <H3117> unto this day, <H3117> but have kept <H8104> the charge <H4931> of the commandment <H4687> of the LORD <H3068> your God. <H0430>

4

And now the LORD <H3068> your God <H0430> hath given rest <H5117> unto your brethren, <H0251> as he promised <H1696> them: therefore now return <H6437> ye, and get <H3212> you unto your tents, <H0168> [and] unto the land <H0776> of your possession, <H0272> which Moses <H4872> the servant <H5650> of the LORD <H3068> gave <H5414> you on the other side <H5676> Jordan. <H3383>

5

But take diligent <H3966> heed <H8104> to do <H6213> the commandment <H4687> and the law, <H8451> which Moses <H4872> the servant <H5650> of the LORD <H3068> charged <H6680> you, to love <H0157> the LORD <H3068> your God, <H0430> and to walk <H3212> in all his ways, <H1870> and to keep <H8104> his commandments, <H4687> and to cleave <H1692> unto him, and to serve <H5647> him with all your heart <H3824> and with all your soul. <H5315>

6

So Joshua <H3091> blessed <H1288> them, and sent them away: <H7971> and they went <H3212> unto their tents. <H0168>

7

Now to the [one] half <H2677> of the tribe <H7626> of Manasseh <H4519> Moses <H4872> had given <H5414> [possession] in Bashan: <H1316> but unto the [other] half <H2677> thereof gave <H5414> Joshua <H3091> among <H5973> their brethren <H0251> on this side <H5676> Jordan <H3383> westward. <H3220> And when Joshua <H3091> sent them away <H7971> also unto their tents, <H0168> then he blessed <H1288> them,

8

And he spake <H0559> unto them, saying, <H0559> Return <H7725> with much <H7227> riches <H5233> unto your tents, <H0168> and with very <H3966> much <H7227> cattle, <H4735> with silver, <H3701> and with gold, <H2091> and with brass, <H5178> and with iron, <H1270> and with very <H3966> much <H7235> raiment: <H8008> divide <H2505> the spoil <H7998> of your enemies <H0341> with your brethren. <H0251>

9

And the children <H1121> of Reuben <H7205> and the children <H1121> of Gad <H1410> and the half <H2677> tribe <H7626> of Manasseh <H4519> returned, <H7725> and departed <H3212> from the children <H1121> of Israel <H3478> out of Shiloh, <H7887> which [is] in the land <H0776> of Canaan, <H3667> to go <H3212> unto the country <H0776> of Gilead, <H1568> to the land <H0776> of their possession, <H0272> whereof they were possessed, <H0270> according to the word <H6310> of the LORD <H3068> by the hand <H3027> of Moses. <H4872>

10

And when they came <H0935> unto the borders <H1552> of Jordan, <H3383> that [are] in the land <H0776> of Canaan, <H3667> the children <H1121> of Reuben <H7205> and the children <H1121> of Gad <H1410> and the half <H2677> tribe <H7626> of Manasseh <H4519> built <H1129> there an altar <H4196> by Jordan, <H3383> a great <H1419> altar <H4196> to see to. <H4758>

11

And the children <H1121> of Israel <H3478> heard <H8085> say, <H0559> Behold, the children <H1121> of Reuben <H7205> and the children <H1121> of Gad <H1410> and the half <H2677> tribe <H7626> of Manasseh <H4519> have built <H1129> an altar <H4196> over against <H4136> the land <H0776> of Canaan, <H3667> in the borders <H1552> of Jordan, <H3383> at the passage <H5676> of the children <H1121> of Israel. <H3478>

12

And when the children <H1121> of Israel <H3478> heard <H8085> [of it], the whole congregation <H5712> of the children <H1121> of Israel <H3478> gathered themselves together <H6950> at Shiloh, <H7887> to go up <H5927> to war <H6635> against them.

13

And the children <H1121> of Israel <H3478> sent <H7971> unto the children <H1121> of Reuben, <H7205> and to the children <H1121> of Gad, <H1410> and to the half <H2677> tribe <H7626> of Manasseh, <H4519> into the land <H0776> of Gilead, <H1568> Phinehas <H6372> the son <H1121> of Eleazar <H0499> the priest, <H3548>

14

And with him ten <H6235> princes, <H5387> of each chief <H0001> house <H1004> a prince <H0259> <H5387> <H0259> <H5387> throughout all the tribes <H4294> of Israel; <H3478> and each one <H0376> [was] an head <H7218> of the house <H1004> of their fathers <H0001> among the thousands <H0505> of Israel. <H3478>

15

And they came <H0935> unto the children <H1121> of Reuben, <H7205> and to the children <H1121> of Gad, <H1410> and to the half <H2677> tribe <H7626> of Manasseh, <H4519> unto the land <H0776> of Gilead, <H1568> and they spake <H1696> with them, saying, <H0559>

16

Thus saith <H0559> the whole congregation <H5712> of the LORD, <H3068> What trespass <H4604> [is] this that ye have committed <H4603> against the God <H0430> of Israel, <H3478> to turn away <H7725> this day <H3117> from following <H0310> the LORD, <H3068> in that ye have builded <H1129> you an altar, <H4196> that ye might rebel <H4775> this day <H3117> against the LORD? <H3068>

17

[Is] the iniquity <H5771> of Peor <H6465> too little <H4592> for us, from which we are not cleansed <H2891> until this day, <H3117> although there was a plague <H5063> in the congregation <H5712> of the LORD, <H3068>

18

But that ye must turn away <H7725> this day <H3117> from following <H0310> the LORD? <H3068> and it will be, [seeing] ye rebel <H4775> to day <H3117> against the LORD, <H3068> that to morrow <H4279> he will be wroth <H7107> with the whole congregation <H5712> of Israel. <H3478>

19

Notwithstanding, <H0389> if the land <H0776> of your possession <H0272> [be] unclean, <H2931> [then] pass ye over <H5674> unto the land <H0776> of the possession <H0272> of the LORD, <H3068> wherein the LORD'S <H3068> tabernacle <H4908> dwelleth, <H7931> and take possession <H0270> among <H8432> us: but rebel <H4775> not against the LORD, <H3068> nor <H0408> rebel <H4775> against us, in building <H1129> you an altar <H4196> beside <H1107> the altar <H4196> of the LORD <H3068> our God. <H0430>

20

Did not Achan <H5912> the son <H1121> of Zerah <H2226> commit <H4603> a trespass <H4604> in the accursed thing, <H2764> and wrath <H7110> fell <H1961> on all the congregation <H5712> of Israel? <H3478> and that man <H0376> perished <H1478> not alone <H0259> in his iniquity. <H5771>

21

Then the children <H1121> of Reuben <H7205> and the children <H1121> of Gad <H1410> and the half <H2677> tribe <H7626> of Manasseh <H4519> answered, <H6030> and said <H1696> unto the heads <H7218> of the thousands <H0505> of Israel, <H3478>

22

The LORD <H3068> God <H0410> of gods, <H0430> the LORD <H3068> God <H0410> of gods, <H0430> he knoweth, <H3045> and Israel <H3478> he shall know; <H3045> if [it be] in rebellion, <H4777> or if in transgression <H4604> against the LORD, <H3068> (save <H3467> us not this day,) <H3117>

23

That we have built <H1129> us an altar <H4196> to turn <H7725> from following <H0310> the LORD, <H3068> or if to offer <H5927> thereon burnt offering <H5930> or meat offering, <H4503> or if to offer <H6213> peace <H8002> offerings <H2077> thereon, let the LORD <H3068> himself require <H1245> [it];

24

And if we have not [rather] done <H6213> it for fear <H1674> of [this] thing, <H1697> saying, <H0559> In time to come <H4279> your children <H1121> might speak <H0559> unto our children, <H1121> saying, <H0559> What have ye to do with the LORD <H3068> God <H0430> of Israel? <H3478>

25

For the LORD <H3068> hath made <H5414> Jordan <H3383> a border <H1366> between us and you, ye children <H1121> of Reuben <H7205> and children <H1121> of Gad; <H1410> ye have no part <H2506> in the LORD: <H3068> so shall your children <H1121> make our children <H1121> cease <H7673> from <H1115> fearing <H3372> the LORD. <H3068>

26

Therefore we said, <H0559> Let us now prepare <H6213> to build <H1129> us an altar, <H4196> not for burnt offering, <H5930> nor for sacrifice: <H2077>

27

But [that] it [may be] a witness <H5707> between us, and you, and our generations <H1755> after <H0310> us, that we might do <H5647> the service <H5656> of the LORD <H3068> before <H6440> him with our burnt offerings, <H5930> and with our sacrifices, <H2077> and with our peace offerings; <H8002> that your children <H1121> may not say <H0559> to our children <H1121> in time to come, <H4279> Ye have no part <H2506> in the LORD. <H3068>

28

Therefore said <H0559> we, that it shall be, when they should [so] say <H0559> to us or to our generations <H1755> in time to come, <H4279> that we may say <H0559> [again], Behold <H7200> the pattern <H8403> of the altar <H4196> of the LORD, <H3068> which our fathers <H0001> made, <H6213> not for burnt offerings, <H5930> nor for sacrifices; <H2077> but it [is] a witness <H5707> between us and you.

29

God forbid <H2486> that we should rebel <H4775> against the LORD, <H3068> and turn <H7725> this day <H3117> from following <H0310> the LORD, <H3068> to build <H1129> an altar <H4196> for burnt offerings, <H5930> for meat offerings, <H4503> or for sacrifices, <H2077> beside the altar <H4196> of the LORD <H3068> our God <H0430> that [is] before <H6440> his tabernacle. <H4908>

30

And when Phinehas <H6372> the priest, <H3548> and the princes <H5387> of the congregation <H5712> and heads <H7218> of the thousands <H0505> of Israel <H3478> which [were] with him, heard <H8085> the words <H1697> that the children <H1121> of Reuben <H7205> and the children <H1121> of Gad <H1410> and the children <H1121> of Manasseh <H4519> spake, <H1696> it pleased <H3190> <H5869> them.

31

And Phinehas <H6372> the son <H1121> of Eleazar <H0499> the priest <H3548> said <H0559> unto the children <H1121> of Reuben, <H7205> and to the children <H1121> of Gad, <H1410> and to the children <H1121> of Manasseh, <H4519> This day <H3117> we perceive <H3045> that the LORD <H3068> [is] among <H8432> us, because ye have not committed <H4603> this trespass <H4604> against the LORD: <H3068> now <H0227> ye have delivered <H5337> the children <H1121> of Israel <H3478> out of the hand <H3027> of the LORD. <H3068>

32

And Phinehas <H6372> the son <H1121> of Eleazar <H0499> the priest, <H3548> and the princes, <H5387> returned <H7725> from the children <H1121> of Reuben, <H7205> and from the children <H1121> of Gad, <H1410> out of the land <H0776> of Gilead, <H1568> unto the land <H0776> of Canaan, <H3667> to the children <H1121> of Israel, <H3478> and brought them word <H1697> again. <H7725>

33

And the thing <H1697> pleased <H3190> <H5869> the children <H1121> of Israel; <H3478> and the children <H1121> of Israel <H3478> blessed <H1288> God, <H0430> and did not intend <H0559> to go up <H5927> against them in battle, <H6635> to destroy <H7843> the land <H0776> wherein the children <H1121> of Reuben <H7205> and <H1121> Gad <H1410> dwelt. <H3427>

34

And the children <H1121> of Reuben <H7205> and the children <H1121> of Gad <H1410> called <H7121> the altar <H4196> [Ed]: for it [shall be] a witness <H5707> between us that the LORD <H3068> [is] God. <H0430>
