2 The children{H1121} of Gad{H1410} and the children{H1121} of Reuben{H7205} came{H935}{(H8799)} and spake{H559}{(H8799)} unto Moses{H4872}, and to Eleazar{H499} the priest{H3548}, and unto the princes{H5387} of the congregation{H5712}, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, 3 Ataroth{H5852}, and Dibon{H1769}, and Jazer{H3270}, and Nimrah{H5247}, and Heshbon{H2809}, and Elealeh{H500}, and Shebam{H7643}, and Nebo{H5015}, and Beon{H1194}, 4 Even the country{H776} which the LORD{H3068} smote{H5221}{(H8689)} before{H6440} the congregation{H5712} of Israel{H3478}, is a land{H776} for cattle{H4735}, and thy servants{H5650} have cattle{H4735}: 5 Wherefore, said{H559}{(H8799)} they, if we have found{H4672}{(H8804)} grace{H2580} in thy sight{H5869}, let this land{H776} be given{H5414}{(H8714)} unto thy servants{H5650} for a possession{H272}, and bring us not over{H5674}{(H8686)} Jordan{H3383}. 6 And Moses{H4872} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto the children{H1121} of Gad{H1410} and to the children{H1121} of Reuben{H7205}, Shall your brethren{H251} go{H935}{(H8799)} to war{H4421}, and shall ye sit{H3427}{(H8799)} here? 7 And wherefore discourage ye{H5106}{(H8686)}{(H8675)}{H5106}{(H8799)} the heart{H3820} of the children{H1121} of Israel{H3478} from going over{H5674}{(H8800)} into the land{H776} which the LORD{H3068} hath given{H5414}{(H8804)} them? 8 Thus did{H6213}{(H8804)} your fathers{H1}, when I sent{H7971}{(H8800)} them from Kadeshbarnea{H6947} to see{H7200}{(H8800)} the land{H776}. 9 For when they went up{H5927}{(H8799)} unto the valley{H5158} of Eshcol{H812}, and saw{H7200}{(H8799)} the land{H776}, they discouraged{H5106}{(H8686)} the heart{H3820} of the children{H1121} of Israel{H3478}, that they should not go{H935}{(H8800)} into the land{H776} which the LORD{H3068} had given{H5414}{(H8804)} them. 10 And the LORD'S{H3068} anger{H639} was kindled{H2734}{(H8799)} the same time{H3117}, and he sware{H7650}{(H8735)}, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, 11 Surely{H518} none of the men{H582} that came up{H5927}{(H8802)} out of Egypt{H4714}, from twenty{H6242} years{H8141} old{H1121} and upward{H4605}, shall see{H7200}{(H8799)} the land{H127} which I sware{H7650}{(H8738)} unto Abraham{H85}, unto Isaac{H3327}, and unto Jacob{H3290}; because they have not wholly{H4390}{(H8765)} followed{H310} me: 12 Save Caleb{H3612} the son{H1121} of Jephunneh{H3312} the Kenezite{H7074}, and Joshua{H3091} the son{H1121} of Nun{H5126}: for they have wholly{H4390}{(H8765)} followed{H310} the LORD{H3068}. 13 And the LORD'S{H3068} anger{H639} was kindled{H2734}{(H8799)} against Israel{H3478}, and he made them wander{H5128}{(H8686)} in the wilderness{H4057} forty{H705} years{H8141}, until all the generation{H1755}, that had done{H6213}{(H8802)} evil{H7451} in the sight{H5869} of the LORD{H3068}, was consumed{H8552}{(H8800)}. 14 And, behold, ye are risen up{H6965}{(H8804)} in your fathers{H1}' stead, an increase{H8635} of sinful{H2400} men{H582}, to augment{H5595}{(H8800)} yet the fierce{H2740} anger{H639} of the LORD{H3068} toward Israel{H3478}. 15 For if ye turn away{H7725}{(H8799)} from after{H310} him, he will yet again{H3254}{(H8804)} leave{H3240}{(H8687)} them in the wilderness{H4057}; and ye shall destroy{H7843}{(H8765)} all this people{H5971}. 16 And they came near{H5066}{(H8799)} unto him, and said{H559}{(H8799)}, We will build{H1129}{(H8799)} sheepfolds{H1448}{H6629} here for our cattle{H4735}, and cities{H5892} for our little ones{H2945}: 17 But we ourselves{H587} will go ready{H2363}{(H8803)} armed{H2502}{(H8735)} before{H6440} the children{H1121} of Israel{H3478}, until we have brought{H935}{(H8689)} them unto their place{H4725}: and our little ones{H2945} shall dwell{H3427}{(H8804)} in the fenced{H4013} cities{H5892} because{H6440} of the inhabitants{H3427}{(H8802)} of the land{H776}. 18 We will not return{H7725}{(H8799)} unto our houses{H1004}, until the children{H1121} of Israel{H3478} have inherited{H5157}{(H8692)} every man{H376} his inheritance{H5159}. 19 For we will not inherit{H5157}{(H8799)} with them on yonder side{H5676} Jordan{H3383}, or forward{H1973}; because our inheritance{H5159} is fallen{H935}{(H8804)} to us on this side{H5676} Jordan{H3383} eastward{H4217}. 20 And Moses{H4872} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto them, If ye will do{H6213}{(H8799)} this thing{H1697}, if ye will go armed{H2502}{(H8735)} before{H6440} the LORD{H3068} to war{H4421}, 21 And will go{H5674} all of you armed{H2502}{(H8803)} over{H5674}{(H8804)} Jordan{H3383} before{H6440} the LORD{H3068}, until he hath driven out{H3423}{(H8687)} his enemies{H341}{(H8802)} from before{H6440} him, 22 And the land{H776} be subdued{H3533}{(H8738)} before{H6440} the LORD{H3068}: then afterward{H310} ye shall return{H7725}{(H8799)}, and be guiltless{H5355} before the LORD{H3068}, and before Israel{H3478}; and this land{H776} shall be your possession{H272} before{H6440} the LORD{H3068}. 23 But if ye will not do so{H6213}{(H8799)}, behold, ye have sinned{H2398}{(H8804)} against the LORD{H3068}: and be sure{H3045}{(H8798)} your sin{H2403} will find you out{H4672}{(H8799)}. 24 Build{H1129}{(H8798)} you cities{H5892} for your little ones{H2945}, and folds{H1448} for your sheep{H6792}; and do{H6213}{(H8799)} that which hath proceeded{H3318}{(H8802)} out of your mouth{H6310}. 25 And the children{H1121} of Gad{H1410} and the children{H1121} of Reuben{H7205} spake{H559}{(H8799)} unto Moses{H4872}, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, Thy servants{H5650} will do{H6213}{(H8799)} as my lord{H113} commandeth{H6680}{(H8764)}. 26 Our little ones{H2945}, our wives{H802}, our flocks{H4735}, and all our cattle{H929}, shall be there in the cities{H5892} of Gilead{H1568}: 27 But thy servants{H5650} will pass over{H5674}{(H8799)}, every man armed{H2502}{(H8803)} for war{H6635}, before{H6440} the LORD{H3068} to battle{H4421}, as my lord{H113} saith{H1696}{(H8802)}. 28 So concerning them Moses{H4872} commanded{H6680}{(H8762)} Eleazar{H499} the priest{H3548}, and Joshua{H3091} the son{H1121} of Nun{H5126}, and the chief{H7218} fathers{H1} of the tribes{H4294} of the children{H1121} of Israel{H3478}: 29 And Moses{H4872} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto them, If the children{H1121} of Gad{H1410} and the children{H1121} of Reuben{H7205} will pass with you over{H5674}{(H8799)} Jordan{H3383}, every man armed{H2502}{(H8803)} to battle{H4421}, before{H6440} the LORD{H3068}, and the land{H776} shall be subdued{H3533}{(H8738)} before{H6440} you; then ye shall give{H5414}{(H8804)} them the land{H776} of Gilead{H1568} for a possession{H272}: 30 But if they will not pass over{H5674}{(H8799)} with you armed{H2502}{(H8803)}, they shall have possessions{H270}{(H8738)} among{H8432} you in the land{H776} of Canaan{H3667}. 31 And the children{H1121} of Gad{H1410} and the children{H1121} of Reuben{H7205} answered{H6030}{(H8799)}, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, As the LORD{H3068} hath said{H1696}{(H8765)} unto thy servants{H5650}, so will we do{H6213}{(H8799)}. 32 We will{H5168} pass over{H5674}{(H8799)} armed{H2502}{(H8803)} before{H6440} the LORD{H3068} into the land{H776} of Canaan{H3667}, that the possession{H272} of our inheritance{H5159} on this side{H5676} Jordan{H3383} may be ours. 33 And Moses{H4872} gave{H5414}{(H8799)} unto them, even to the children{H1121} of Gad{H1410}, and to the children{H1121} of Reuben{H7205}, and unto half{H2677} the tribe{H7626} of Manasseh{H4519} the son{H1121} of Joseph{H3130}, the kingdom{H4467} of Sihon{H5511} king{H4428} of the Amorites{H567}, and the kingdom{H4467} of Og{H5747} king{H4428} of Bashan{H1316}, the land{H776}, with the cities{H5892} thereof in the coasts{H1367}, even the cities{H5892} of the country{H776} round about{H5439}. 34 And the children{H1121} of Gad{H1410} built{H1129}{(H8799)} Dibon{H1769}, and Ataroth{H5852}, and Aroer{H6177}, 35 And Atroth, Shophan{H5855}, and Jaazer{H3270}, and Jogbehah{H3011}, 36 And Bethnimrah{H1039}, and Bethharan{H1028}, fenced{H4013} cities{H5892}: and folds{H1448} for sheep{H6629}. 37 And the children{H1121} of Reuben{H7205} built{H1129}{(H8804)} Heshbon{H2809}, and Elealeh{H500}, and Kirjathaim{H7156}, 38 And Nebo{H5015}, and Baalmeon{H1186},(their names{H8034} being changed{H4142}{(H8716)},) and Shibmah{H7643}: and gave{H7121}{(H8799)} other names{H8034}{H8034} unto the cities{H5892} which they builded{H1129}{(H8804)}. 39 And the children{H1121} of Machir{H4353} the son{H1121} of Manasseh{H4519} went{H3212}{(H8799)} to Gilead{H1568}, and took{H3920}{(H8799)} it, and dispossessed{H3423}{(H8686)} the Amorite{H567} which was in it. 40 And Moses{H4872} gave{H5414}{(H8799)} Gilead{H1568} unto Machir{H4353} the son{H1121} of Manasseh{H4519};

Therefore the name{H8034} of the city{H5892} was called{H7121}{(H8804)} Zoar{H6820}. 23 The sun{H8121} was risen{H3318}{(H8804)} upon the earth{H776} when Lot{H3876} entered{H935}{(H8804)} into Zoar{H6820}. 24 Then the LORD{H3068} rained{H4305}{(H8689)} upon Sodom{H5467} and upon Gomorrah{H6017} brimstone{H1614} and fire{H784} from the LORD{H3068} out of heaven{H8064}; 25 And he overthrew{H2015}{(H8799)} those{H411} cities{H5892}, and all the plain{H3603}, and all the inhabitants{H3427}{(H8802)} of the cities{H5892}, and that which grew{H6780} upon the ground{H127}. 26 But his wife{H802} looked back{H5027}{(H8686)} from behind him{H310}, and she became a pillar{H5333} of salt{H4417}. 27 And Abraham{H85} gat up early{H7925}{(H8686)} in the morning{H1242} to the place{H4725} where he stood{H5975}{(H8804)} before{H6440} the LORD{H3068}: 28 And he looked{H8259}{(H8686)} toward{H6440} Sodom{H5467} and Gomorrah{H6017}, and toward{H6440} all the land{H776} of the plain{H3603}, and beheld{H7200}{(H8799)}, and, lo, the smoke{H7008} of the country{H776} went up{H5927}{(H8804)} as the smoke{H7008} of a furnace{H3536}. 29 And it came to pass, when God{H430} destroyed{H7843}{(H8763)} the cities{H5892} of the plain{H3603}, that God{H430} remembered{H2142}{(H8799)} Abraham{H85}, and sent{H7971}{(H8762)} Lot{H3876} out of the midst{H8432} of the overthrow{H2018}, when he overthrew{H2015}{(H8800)} the cities{H5892} in the which{H2004} Lot{H3876} dwelt{H3427}{(H8804)}. 30 And Lot{H3876} went up{H5927}{(H8799)} out of Zoar{H6820}, and dwelt{H3427}{(H8799)} in the mountain{H2022}, and his two{H8147} daughters{H1323} with him; for he feared{H3372}{(H8804)} to dwell{H3427}{(H8800)} in Zoar{H6820}: and he dwelt{H3427}{(H8799)} in a cave{H4631}, he and his two{H8147} daughters{H1323}.
  • Jer 48:34 : 34 From the cry{H2201} of Heshbon{H2809} even unto Elealeh{H500}, and even unto Jahaz{H3096}, have they uttered{H5414}{(H8804)} their voice{H6963}, from Zoar{H6820} even unto Horonaim{H2773}, as an heifer{H5697} of three years old{H7992}: for the waters{H4325} also of Nimrim{H5249} shall be desolate{H4923}.
  • Ezek 31:8 : 8 The cedars{H730} in the garden{H1588} of God{H430} could not hide{H6004}{(H8804)} him: the fir trees{H1265} were not like{H1819}{(H8804)} his boughs{H5589}, and the chesnut trees{H6196} were not like his branches{H6288}; nor any tree{H6086} in the garden{H1588} of God{H430} was like{H1819}{(H8804)} unto him in his beauty{H3308}.
  • 1 John 2:15-16 : 15 Love{G25}{(G5720)} not{G3361} the world{G2889}, neither{G3366} the things that are in{G1722} the world{G2889}. If{G1437} any man{G5100} love{G25}{(G5725)} the world{G2889}, the love{G26} of the Father{G3962} is{G2076}{(G5748)} not{G3756} in{G1722} him{G846}. 16 For{G3754} all{G3956} that is in{G1722} the world{G2889}, the lust{G1939} of the flesh{G4561}, and{G2532} the lust{G1939} of the eyes{G3788}, and{G2532} the pride{G212} of life{G979}, is{G2076}{(G5748)} not{G3756} of{G1537} the Father{G3962}, but{G235} is{G2076}{(G5748)} of{G1537} the world{G2889}.
