Tribal Chiefs Assigned for Dividing the Land

¹³ Moses commanded the Israelites, “This is the land which you will assign as a possession by lot, which the Lord has commanded you to give to the nine and a half tribes. ¹⁴ The tribe of Reuben’s descendants according to their fathers’ houses and the tribe of Gad’s descendants according to their fathers’ houses have already received their possession. Also half of the tribe of Manasseh has received its possession. ¹⁵ The two and a half tribes have received their possession east of the Jordan across from Jericho, toward the sunrise.”
