Moses defeated him along with the princes of Midian—Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba—who were rulers allied with Sihon and lived in the land. 22 In addition to those slain, the Israelites also killed Balaam son of Beor, the diviner, with the sword. 23 The territory of the Reubenites was the Jordan and its surrounding land. This was the inheritance of the tribe of Reuben, according to their clans—the cities and their villages. 24 Similarly, Moses gave to the tribe of Gad, to the descendants of Gad according to their clans: 25 Their territory included Jazer, all the cities of Gilead, and half the land of the Ammonites as far as Aroer, which is near Rabbah. 26 From Heshbon to Ramath Mizpeh and Betonim, and from Mahanaim to the boundary of Debir. 27 In the valley, Beth Haram, Beth Nimrah, Succoth, and Zaphon—the rest of the kingdom of Sihon king of Heshbon, along with the Jordan and its boundary, reaching as far as the edge of the Sea of Kinnereth on the eastern side of the Jordan. 28 This was the inheritance of the tribe of Gad, according to their clans—the cities and their villages.
