Numbers 32:21
19 Yet we will not have an inheritance with them across the Jordan and beyond, because our inheritance has come to us on the east side of the Jordan.”
20 Moses replied, “If you will do this—if you will arm yourselves before the LORD for battle,
and if every one of your armed men crosses the Jordan before the LORD, until He has driven His enemies out before Him,
22 then when the land is subdued before the LORD, you may return and be free of obligation to the LORD and to Israel. And this land will belong to you as a possession before the LORD.
23 But if you do not do this, you will certainly sin against the LORD—and be assured that your sin will find you out.
Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
