23That we have built us an altar to turn from following the Lord, or if to offer thereon burnt offering or meat offering, or if to offer peace offerings thereon, let the Lord himself require it;Select Joshua 22:23
24And if we have not rather done it for fear of this thing, saying, In time to come your children might speak unto our children, saying, What have ye to do with the Lord God of Israel?Select Joshua 22:24
25For the Lord hath made Jordan a border between us and you, ye children of Reuben and children of Gad; ye have no part in the Lord: so shall your children make our children cease from fearing the Lord.Select Joshua 22:25
26Therefore we said, Let us now prepare to build us an altar, not for burnt offering, nor for sacrifice:Select Joshua 22:26
