Exegesis
The main verb natnu {נָתְנוּ | nā-tə-nû} ‘they designated’ forms an independent clause governing three parallel objects, each introduced by the marker et {אֶת־ | ʾet} ‘direct-object marker’.
In context — Joshua 20:8
And on the other side of the Jordan east of Jericho, they designated Bezer in the wilderness , in the plain, from the tribe of Reuben; and Ramoth in Gilead, from the tribe of Gad; and Golan in Bashan, from the tribe of Manasseh.
