Context Reading
16They lived in Gilead, in Bashan and its towns, and throughout the pasturelands of Sharon. 17All of them were recorded in the genealogies during the reigns of Jotham king of Judah and Jeroboam king of Israel. 18The Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh had 44,760 warriors — valiant men who carried the shield and sword, drew the bow, and were trained for battle. 19They waged war against the Hagrites, as well as Jetur, Naphish, and Nodab. 20And because they cried out to God in battle, they were helped against their enemies, and the Hagrites and all their allies were delivered into their hands. Because they put their trust in God, He answered their prayers.
