22 Then Yehoshua summoned the tribes of Reuben and Gad, and the Manashsheh half-tribe 2 and told them, “You yourselves have obeyed everything that Yahweh’s servant Mosheh instructed you to do. In addition, you’ve all followed everything that I told you.[ref] 3 You’ve all supported your fellow tribes all this time and fulfilled what your God Yahweh requested of you all, 4 and now he has enabled these other tribes to rest from battle just like he told them he would. So now, you all may go back to your homes that Yahweh’s servant Mosheh gave you on the other side of the river. 5 Only do take care to continue to obey the instructions and the law that Yahweh’s servant Mosheh gave you: to love your God Yahweh, to follow him and his instructions, to stay close to him, and to serve him with all your hearts and your inner selves.” 6 Then Yehoshua blessed them and sent them on their way to return to their homes. 7 (Mosheh had given the Bashan to the half of the Manashsheh half-tribe, and Yehoshua had given land on the western side of the Yordan to the other half.) When he’d blessed them 8 he’d said, “Go back to your homes with many riches: plenty of livestock, and with silver, gold, bronze, and iron, and with lots of clothing. Share the plunder from your enemies with those who remained behind.” 9 So the warriors from the tribes of Rueben, Gad, and the Manashsheh half-tribe left the others there at Shiloh in the Canaan region, and went back to their own land in Gilead across the river which they had taken for themselves with the agreement of Yahweh given through Mosheh.
