40. Thou shalt be shomer over His chukkim, therefore, and His mitzvot, which I command thee today, that it may go well with thee, and with thy banim after thee, and that thou mayest prolong thy yamim upon Ha'Aretz, which Hashem Eloheicha giveth thee, kol hayamim.
41. Then Moshe separated and set apart three towns on this side of the Yarden toward the rising of the shemesh;
42. That the rotze'ach might flee thither, which should kill his neighbor unawares, and hated him not in times past; and that fleeing unto one of these towns he might live:
43. Namely, Betzer in the midbar, in the flatland, of the Reuveni; and Ramot in Gil`ad, of the Gadi; and Golan in Bashan, of the Menashi.
44. And this is the torah which Moshe set before the Bnei Yisroel;
45. These are the edot, and the chukkim, and the mishpatim, which Moshe spoke unto the Bnei Yisroel, after they came forth out of Mitzrayim.
46. On this side of the Yarden, in the valley over against Beit Peor, in Eretz Sichon Melech HaEmori, who dwelt at Cheshbon, whom Moshe and the Bnei Yisroel struck down, after they were come forth out of Mitzrayim;
47. And they possessed his land, and Eretz Og Melech HaBashan, two melachim of HaEmori, which were on this side of the Yarden toward the rising of the shemesh;
48. From Aroer, which is by the edge of the Wadi Arnon, even unto Mt Siyon, which is Chermon,
49. And all the Aravah on this side of the Yarden eastward, even unto the Dead Sea, under the slopes of Pisgah.
