And when Phinehas the priest, and the princes of the congregation and heads of the thousands of Israel which were with him, heard the words that the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the children of Manasseh spake, it pleased them.

Verse 30 is found in chapter 22 of Joshua. The explanation satisfies Phinehas and the leaders. It is acknowledged that the eastern tribes had not acted rebelliously, and the threat of war is abandoned. The altar is named Ed, "witness," because it was to serve as a memorial that the Lord is God on both sides of the Jordan. The narrative concludes by showing how communication and shared testimony prevent a civil war within Israel.

Da aber Pinehas, der Priester, und die Obersten der Gemeinde, die Häupter über die Tausende Israels, die mit ihm waren, hörten diese Worte, die die Kinder Ruben, Gad und Manasse sagten, gefielen sie ihnen wohl.
Y oyendo Phinees el sacerdote y los príncipes de la congregación, y las cabezas de la multitud de Israel que con él estaban, las palabras que hablaron los hijos de Rubén y los hijos de Gad y los hijos de Manasés, fueron contentos de ello.
Lorsque le sacrificateur Phinées, et les princes de l'assemblée, les chefs des milliers d'Israël, qui étaient avec lui, eurent entendu les paroles que prononcèrent les fils de Ruben, les fils de Gad et les fils de Manassé, ils furent satisfaits.
Quando il Sacerdote Finees, e i principali della raunanza, e i Capi delle migliaia d’Israele, ch’erano con lui, ebbero intese le parole che i figliuoli di Ruben, e i figliuoli di Gad, e i figliuoli di Manasse dissero, la cosa piacque loro.
Ouvindo, pois, Finéias, o sacerdote, e os príncipes da congregação, e os cabeças dos milhares de Israel, que com eles estavam, as palavras que disseram os filhos de Rúben, e os filhos de Gade, e os filhos de Manassés, pareceu bem aos seus olhos.
