19 Nevertheless, if the land of your possession is unclean, then cross over to the land of the possession of the Lord, awhere the Lord’s tabernacle stands, and take possession among us; but do not rebel against the Lord, nor rebel against us, by building yourselves an altar besides the altar of the Lord our God.
20 aDid not Achan the son of Zerah commit a trespass in the accursed thing, and wrath fell on all the congregation of Israel? And that man did not perish alone in his iniquity.’ ”
21 Then the children of Reuben, the children of Gad, and half the tribe of Manasseh answered and said to the heads of the1 divisions of Israel:
22 “The Lord aGod of gods, the Lord God of gods, He bknows, and let Israel itself know—if it is in rebellion, or if in treachery against the Lord, do not save us this day.
23 If we have built ourselves an altar to turn from following the Lord, or if to offer on it burnt offerings or grain offerings, or if to offer peace offerings on it, let the Lord Himself arequire an account.
