Yosua 22:25-27

22:25 The Lord made the Jordan a boundary between us and you Reubenites and Gadites. You have no right to worship the Lord.’ ¹  In this way your descendants might cause our descendants to stop obeying ²  the Lord. 22:26 So we decided to build this altar, not for burnt offerings and sacrifices, 22:27 but as a reminder to us and you, ³  and to our descendants who follow us, that we will honor the Lord in his very presence ⁴  with burnt offerings, sacrifices, and tokens of peace. ⁵  Then in the future your descendants will not be able to say to our descendants, ‘You have no right to worship the Lord.’ ⁶
