Deuteronomy 3:12-16
And this land we took in possession at that time: from Aroer, which is by the valley of the Arnon, and half the hill- country of Gilead, and the cities thereof, gave I unto the Reubenites and to the Gadites:and the rest of Gilead, and all Bashan, the kingdom of Og, gave I unto the half- tribe of Manasseh; all the region of Argob, even all Bashan.( The same is called the land of Rephaim.Jair the son of Manasseh took all the region of Argob, unto the border of the Geshurites and the Maacathites, and called them, even Bashan, after his own name, Havvoth- jair, unto this day.)And I gave Gilead unto Machir.And unto the Reubenites and unto the Gadites I gave from Gilead even unto the valley of the Arnon, the middle of the valley, and the border thereof, even unto the river Jabbok, which is the border of the children of Ammon;

Joshua 13:7-32
Now therefore divide this land for an inheritance unto the nine tribes, and the half- tribe of Manasseh.With him the Reubenites and the Gadites received their inheritance, which Moses gave them, beyond the Jordan eastward, even as Moses the servant of Jehovah gave them:from Aroer, that is on the edge of the valley of the Arnon, and the city that is in the middle of the valley, and all the plain of Medeba unto Dibon;and all the cities of Sihon king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon, unto the border of the children of Ammon;and Gilead, and the border of the Geshurites and Maacathites, and all mount Hermon, and all Bashan unto Salecah;all the kingdom of Og in Bashan, who reigned in Ashtaroth and in Edrei( the same was left of the remnant of the Rephaim); for these did Moses smite, and drove them out.Nevertheless the children of Israel drove not out the Geshurites, nor the Maacathites: but Geshur and Maacath dwell in the midst of Israel unto this day.Only unto the tribe of Levi he gave no inheritance; the offerings of Jehovah, the God of Israel, made by fire are his inheritance, as he spake unto him.And Moses gave unto the tribe of the children of Reuben according to their families.And their border was from Aroer, that is on the edge of the valley of the Arnon, and the city that is in the middle of the valley, and all the plain by Medeba;Heshbon, and all its cities that are in the plain; Dibon, and Bamoth- baal, and Beth- baal- meon,and Jahaz, and Kedemoth, and Mephaath,and Kiriathaim, and Sibmah, and Zereth- shahar in the mount of the valley,and Beth- peor, and the slopes of Pisgah, and Beth- jeshimoth,and all the cities of the plain, and all the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon, whom Moses smote with the chiefs of Midian, Evi, and Rekem, and Zur, and Hur, and Reba, the princes of Sihon, that dwelt in the land.Balaam also the son of Beor, the soothsayer, did the children of Israel slay with the sword among the rest of their slain.And the border of the children of Reuben was the Jordan, and the border thereof. This was the inheritance of the children of Reuben according to their families, the cities and the villages thereof.And Moses gave unto the tribe of Gad, unto the children of Gad, according to their families.And their border was Jazer, and all the cities of Gilead, and half the land of the children of Ammon, unto Aroer that is before Rabbah;and from Heshbon unto Ramath- mizpeh, and Betonim; and from Mahanaim unto the border of Debir;and in the valley, Beth- haram, and Beth- nimrah, and Succoth, and Zaphon, the rest of the kingdom of Sihon king of Heshbon, the Jordan and the border thereof, unto the uttermost part of the sea of Chinnereth beyond the Jordan eastward.This is the inheritance of the children of Gad according to their families, the cities and the villages thereof.And Moses gave inheritance unto the half- tribe of Manasseh: and it was for the half- tribe of the children of Manasseh according to their families.And their border was from Mahanaim, all Bashan, all the kingdom of Og king of Bashan, and all the towns of Jair, which are in Bashan, threescore cities:and half Gilead, and Ashtaroth, and Edrei, the cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan, were for the children of Machir the son of Manasseh, even for the half of the children of Machir according to their families.These are the inheritances which Moses distributed in the plains of Moab, beyond the Jordan at Jericho, eastward.

1 Chronicles 5 1-1 Chronicles 5 10
And the sons of Reuben the first- born of Israel( for he was the first- born; but, forasmuch as he defiled his father’s couch, his birthright was given unto the sons of Joseph the son of Israel; and the genealogy is not to be reckoned after the birthright.For Judah prevailed above his brethren, and of him came the prince; but the birthright was Joseph’s),the sons of Reuben the first- born of Israel: Hanoch, and Pallu, Hezron, and Carmi.The sons of Joel: Shemaiah his son, Gog his son, Shimei his son,Micah his son, Reaiah his son, Baal his son,Beerah his son, whom Tilgath- pilneser king of Assyria carried away captive: he was prince of the Reubenites.And his brethren by their families, when the genealogy of their generations was reckoned: the chief, Jeiel, and Zechariah,and Bela the son of Azaz, the son of Shema, the son of Joel, who dwelt in Aroer, even unto Nebo and Baal- meon:and eastward he dwelt even unto the entrance of the wilderness from the river Euphrates, because their cattle were multiplied in the land of Gilead.And in the days of Saul, they made war with the Hagrites, who fell by their hand; and they dwelt in their tents throughout all the land east of Gilead.

Joshua 22:1-10
Then Joshua called the Reubenites, and the Gadites, and the half- tribe of Manasseh,and said unto them, Ye have kept all that Moses the servant of Jehovah commanded you, and have hearkened unto my voice in all that I commanded you:ye have not left your brethren these many days unto this day, but have kept the charge of the commandment of Jehovah your God.And now Jehovah your God hath given rest unto your brethren, as he spake unto them: therefore now turn ye, and get you unto your tents, unto the land of your possession, which Moses the servant of Jehovah gave you beyond the Jordan.Only take diligent heed to do the commandment and the law which Moses the servant of Jehovah commanded you, to love Jehovah your God, and to walk in all his ways, and to keep his commandments, and to cleave unto him, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul.So Joshua blessed them, and sent them away; and they went unto their tents.Now to the one half- tribe of Manasseh Moses had given inheritance in Bashan; but unto the other half gave Joshua among their brethren beyond the Jordan westward. Moreover when Joshua sent them away unto their tents, he blessed them,and spake unto them, saying, Return with much wealth unto your tents, and with very much cattle, with silver, and with gold, and with brass, and with iron, and with very much raiment: divide the spoil of your enemies with your brethren.And the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the half- tribe of Manasseh returned, and departed from the children of Israel out of Shiloh, which is in the land of Canaan, to go unto the land of Gilead, to the land of their possession, whereof they were possessed, according to the commandment of Jehovah by Moses.And when they came unto the region about the Jordan, that is in the land of Canaan, the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the half- tribe of Manasseh built there an altar by the Jordan, a great altar to look upon.
