Numbers 32:4 in context

The verses around it, from Numbers 32.

1 Now the Reubenites and Gadites, who had very large herds and flocks, surveyed the lands of Jazer and Gilead, and they saw that the region was suitable for livestock.

2 So the Gadites and Reubenites came to Moses, Eleazar the priest, and the leaders of the congregation, and said,

3 “Ataroth, Dibon, Jazer, Nimrah, Heshbon, Elealeh, Sebam, Nebo, and Beon,

4 which the LORD conquered before the congregation of Israel, are suitable for livestock—and your servants have livestock.”

5 “If we have found favor in your sight,” they said, “let this land be given to your servants as a possession. Do not make us cross the Jordan.”

6 But Moses asked the Gadites and Reubenites, “Shall your brothers go to war while you sit here?

7 Why are you discouraging the Israelites from crossing into the land that the LORD has given them?

8 This is what your fathers did when I sent them from Kadesh-barnea to inspect the land.
