And now the LORD your God hath given rest unto your brethren, as he promised them: therefore now return ye, and get you unto your tents, and unto the land of your possession, which Moses the servant of the LORD gave you on the other side Jordan.

Verse 4 is found in chapter 22 of Joshua. Joshua dismisses Reuben, Gad, and half of Manasseh after recognizing that they fulfilled the commitment made before crossing the Jordan. Their return to their eastern territories takes place after they have helped their brothers during the conquest. Joshua exhorts them to love the Lord, walk in His ways, keep His commandments, and serve Him. Military unity is transformed into an exhortation to maintain spiritual unity.

Weil nun der HERR, euer Gott, hat eure Brüder zur Ruhe gebracht, wie er ihnen geredet hat, so wendet euch nun und ziehet hin in eure Hütten im Lande eures Erbes, das euch Mose, der Knecht des HERRN, gegeben hat jenseit des Jordans.
Ahora pues que Jehová vuestro Dios ha dado reposo a vuestros hermanos, como se lo había prometido, volved, y tornad a vuestras tiendas, a la tierra de vuestras posesiones, que Moisés siervo de Jehová os dio de la otra parte del Jordán.
Ahora Jehová su Dios ha dado descanso a sus hermanos, como les había dicho. Ahora vuelvan y vayan a sus tiendas, a la tierra de su posesión que les dio Moisés, siervo de Jehová, al otro lado del Jordán.
Maintenant que l'Eternel, votre Dieu, a accordé du repos à vos frères, comme il le leur avait dit, retournez et allez vers vos tentes, dans le pays qui vous appartient, et que Moïse, serviteur de l'Eternel, vous a donné de l'autre côté du Jourdain.
Or dunque, poichè il Signore Iddio vostro ha dato riposo a’ vostri fratelli, come egli avea loro detto, ritornatevene, e andate alla vostre stanze nel paese della vostra possessione, la qual Mosè, servitor del Signore, vi diede di là dal Giordano.
Agora o SENHOR vosso Deus deu repouso a vossos irmãos, como lhes tinha prometido; voltai-vos, pois, agora, e ide-vos às vossas tendas, à terra da vossa possessão, que Moisés, o servo do SENHOR, vos deu além do Jordão.
如今耶和華-你們的上帝已經照著他所應許的,使你們的弟兄得享安寧。你們現在可以返回自己的帳棚,回到耶和華的僕人 摩西 在 約旦河 東所賜給你們為業之地。
