25 The sons of Gad and the sons of Reuʹben said this to Moses: “Your servants will do just as my lord is commanding. 26 Our children, our wives, our livestock, and all our domestic animals will stay there in the cities of Gilʹe·ad,+ 27 but your servants will cross over, every man armed for battle to wage war before Jehovah,+ just as my lord is speaking.”
