16 They lived in Gilead, in Bashan and its towns, and throughout the pasturelands of Sharon.
17 All of them were reckoned in the genealogies during the reigns of Jotham king of Judah and Jeroboam king of Israel.
18 The Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh had 44,760 warriors—valiant men who carried the shield and sword, drew the bow, and were trained for battle.
19 They waged war against the Hagrites, as well as Jetur, Naphish, and Nodab.
