Numbers 32:17 in Context — Numbers 32

15 Se vos deixardes de segui-lo, ele voltará outra vez a deixar-vos no deserto, e destruireis a todo este povo.

16 Então eles se achegaram a ele e disseram: Edificaremos aqui currais para nosso gado, e cidades para nossas crianças;

17 E nós nos armaremos, e iremos com empenho diante dos filhos de Israel, até que os ponhamos em seu lugar; e nossas crianças ficarão em cidades fortes por causa dos moradores da terra.

18 Não voltaremos a nossas casas até que os filhos de Israel possuam cada um sua herança.

19 Porque não tomaremos herança com eles ao outro lado do Jordão nem adiante, porquanto teremos já nossa herança da outra parte do Jordão ao oriente.
