Sermons upon Deuteronomy

12 The same time we took possession of the land, From Aroer which is upon the River Arnon. And I gave one half of mount Galaad with the Cities thereof to the Rubenites and Gadites. 13 And the rest of Galaad and all Bashan, which was of the kingdom of Og, I gave to the half tribe of Manasseh: that is to wit, all the Country of Argob, and all Bashan, which is called the land of the Giants. 14 Jair the son of Manasseh took all the Country of Argob, unto the borders ⟨p. 91⟩of Gessuri, and Machati: and called them after his own name, that is to wit, Bashan Havoth Jair, unto this day. 15 And unto Machir I gave Galaad. 16 And unto the Rubenites and Gadites I gave from Galaad unto the river Arnon, the midst of the river and the end, and unto the river Jabocke, which is the border of the children of Ammon. 17 And the plain, and the Jordan, and the borders thereof from Kenereth to the sea of the wilderness, that is to wit, the salt Sea under Asdodphasga towards the East. 18 And the same time I commanded you, saying: the Lord your God hath given you this land to possess. All you that are strong men, go armed before your brethren the children of Israel: 19 But your wives, your children, and your cattle, (I know ye have much cattle) shall tarry in your Cities which I have given you, 20 Until the Lord have given rest to your brethren as well as to you, and that they likewise possess the land which the Lord your God giveth them beyond Jordan. Then shall ye return every man to his possession which I have given you. 21 And the same time I commanded Joshua, saying: Thine eyes have seen all that the Lord your God hath done to these two Kings. So will the Lord do to all the kingdoms through which thou shalt pass 22 Fear them not: for the Lord is your God: it is he that fighteth for you.

12 The same time wee tooke possession of the land, From Aroer which is vpon the Riuer Arnon. And I gaue one halfe of mount Galaad with the Cities thereof to the Rubenites and Gadites. 13 And the rest of Galaad and all Basan, which was of the kingdome of Og, I gaue to the halfe tribe of Manasses: that is to wit, all the Countrie of Argob, and all Basan, which is called the land of the Giantes. 14 Iair the sonne of Manasses tooke all the Countrie of Argob, vnto the borders ⟨p. 91⟩of Gessuri, and Machati: and called them after his owne name, that is to wit, Basan Hauoth Iair, vnto this day. 15 And vnto Machir I gaue Galaad. 16 And vnto the Rubenites and Gadites I gaue from Galaad vnto the riuer Arnon, the middes of the riuer and the end, and vnto the riuer Iabocke, which is the border of the children of Ammon. 17 And the plaine, and the Iordan, and the borders thereof from Kenereth to the sea of the wildernesse, that is to wit, the salt Sea vnder Asdodphasga towardes the East. 18 And the same time I commaunded you, saying: the Lorde your God hath giuen you this land to possesse. All you that are strong men, goe armed before your brethren the children of Israel: 19 But your wiues, your children, and your cattell, (I know ye haue much cattell) shall tarie in your Cities which I haue giuen you, 20 Vntill the Lord haue giuen rest to your brethren as well as to you, and that they likewise possesse the land which the Lorde your God giueth them beyonde Iordan. Then shall yee returne euerye man to his possession which I haue giuen you. 21 And the same time I commaunded Iosua, saying: Thine eyes haue seene all that the Lord your God hath done to these two Kings. So will the Lord doe to all the kingdomes through which thou shalt passe 22 Feare them not: for the Lord is your God: it is he that fighteth for you.
