WORD Research this...Numbers 32
- 1 Now the children of Reuben and the children of Gad had a very great multitude of livestock. When they saw the land of Jazer, and the land of Gilead, that behold, the place was a place for livestock;
- 2 the children of Gad and the children of Reuben came and spoke to Moses, and to Eleazar the priest, and to the princes of the congregation, saying,
- 3 “Ataroth, Dibon, Jazer, Nimrah, Heshbon, Elealeh, Sebam, Nebo, and Beon,
- 4 the land which Yahweh struck before the congregation of Israel, is a land for livestock; and your servants have livestock.”
- 5 They said, “If we have found favor in your sight, let this land be given to your servants for a possession. Don’t bring us over the Jordan.”
- 6 Moses said to the children of Gad, and to the children of Reuben, “Shall your brothers go to the war, and shall you sit here?
- 7 Why do you discourage the heart of the children of Israel from going over into the land which Yahweh has given them?
- 8 Your fathers did so when I sent them from Kadesh Barnea to see the land.
- 9 For when they went up to the valley of Eshcol, and saw the land, they discouraged the heart of the children of Israel, that they should not go into the land which Yahweh had given them.
- 10 Yahweh’s anger was kindled in that day, and he swore, saying,
- 11 ‘Surely none of the men who came up out of Egypt, from twenty years old and upward, shall see the land which I swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob; because they have not wholly followed me,
- 12 except Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite, and Joshua the son of Nun; because they have followed Yahweh completely.’
- 13 Yahweh’s anger was kindled against Israel, and he made them wander back and forth in the wilderness forty years, until all the generation, who had done evil in the sight of Yahweh, was consumed.
- 14 “Behold, you have risen up in your fathers’ place, an increase of sinful men, to increase the fierce anger of Yahweh toward Israel.
- 15 For if you turn away from after him, he will yet again leave them in the wilderness; and you will destroy all of these people.”
- 16 They came near to him, and said, “We will build sheepfolds here for our livestock, and cities for our little ones;
- 17 but we ourselves will be ready armed to go before the children of Israel, until we have brought them to their place. Our little ones shall dwell in the fortified cities because of the inhabitants of the land.
- 18 We will not return to our houses, until the children of Israel have each inherited their inheritance.
- 19 For we will not inherit with them on the other side of the Jordan, and forward; because our inheritance has come to us on this side of the Jordan eastward.”
- 20 Moses said to them, “If you will do this thing, if you will arm yourselves to go before Yahweh to the war,
- 21 and every armed man of you will pass over the Jordan before Yahweh, until he has driven out his enemies from before him,
- 22 and the land is subdued before Yahweh; then afterward you shall return, and be guiltless towards Yahweh, and towards Israel; and this land shall be to you for a possession before Yahweh.
- 23 “But if you will not do so, behold, you have sinned against Yahweh; and be sure your sin will find you out.
- 24 Build cities for your little ones, and folds for your sheep; and do that which has proceeded out of your mouth.”
- 25 The children of Gad and the children of Reuben spoke to Moses, saying, “Your servants will do as my lord commands.
- 26 Our little ones, our wives, our flocks, and all our livestock, shall be there in the cities of Gilead;
- 27 but your servants will pass over, every man who is armed for war, before Yahweh to battle, as my lord says.”
- 28 So Moses commanded concerning them to Eleazar the priest, and to Joshua the son of Nun, and to the heads of the fathers’ households of the tribes of the children of Israel.
- 29 Moses said to them, “If the children of Gad and the children of Reuben will pass with you over the Jordan, every man who is armed to battle, before Yahweh, and the land is subdued before you, then you shall give them the land of Gilead for a possession;
- 30 but if they will not pass over with you armed, they shall have possessions among you in the land of Canaan.”
- 31 The children of Gad and the children of Reuben answered, saying, “As Yahweh has said to your servants, so will we do.
- 32 We will pass over armed before Yahweh into the land of Canaan, and the possession of our inheritance shall remain with us beyond the Jordan.”
- 33 Moses gave to them, even to the children of Gad, and to the children of Reuben, and to the half-tribe of Manasseh the son of Joseph, the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites, and the kingdom of Og king of Bashan, the land, according to its cities and borders, even the cities of the surrounding land.
- 34 The children of Gad built Dibon, Ataroth, Aroer,
- 35 Atrothshophan, Jazer, Jogbehah,
- 36 Beth Nimrah, and Beth Haran: fortified cities, and folds for sheep.
- 37 The children of Reuben built Heshbon, Elealeh, Kiriathaim,
- 38 Nebo, and Baal Meon, (their names being changed), and Sibmah. They gave other names to the cities which they built.
- 39 The children of Machir the son of Manasseh went to Gilead, took it, and dispossessed the Amorites who were therein.
- 40 Moses gave Gilead to Machir the son of Manasseh; and he lived therein.
- 41 Jair the son of Manasseh went and took its towns, and called them Havvoth Jair.
- 42 Nobah went and took Kenath, and its villages, and called it Nobah, after his own name.

Basic Hash Usage Explained
At getBible, we've established a robust system to keep our API synchronized with the Crosswire project's modules. Let me explain how this integration works in simple terms.
We source our Bible text directly from the Crosswire modules. To monitor any updates, we generate "hash values" for each chapter, book, and translation. These hash values serve as unique identifiers that change only when the underlying content changes, thereby ensuring a tight integration between getBible and the Crosswire modules.
Every month, an automated process runs for approximately three hours. During this window, we fetch the latest Bible text from the Crosswire modules. Subsequently, we compare the new hash values and the text with the previous ones. Any detected changes trigger updates to both our official getBible hash repository and the Bible API for all affected translations. This system has been operating seamlessly for several years.
Once the updates are complete, any application utilizing our Bible API should monitor the hash values at the chapter, book, or translation level. Spotting a change in these values indicates that they should update their respective systems.
Hash values can change due to various reasons, including textual corrections like adding omitted verses, rectifying spelling errors, or addressing any discrepancies flagged by the publishers maintaining the modules at Crosswire.
The Crosswire initiative, also known as the SWORD Project, is the "source of truth" for getBible. Any modifications in the Crosswire modules get reflected in our API within days, ensuring our users access the most precise and current Bible text. We pledge to uphold this standard as long as getBible exists and our build scripts remain operational.
We're united in our mission to preserve the integrity and authenticity of the Bible text. If you have questions or require additional information, please use our support system. We're here to assist and will respond promptly.
Thank you for your understanding and for being an integral part of the getBible community.
