Numbers 25:1-18

And Israel
<03478>
abode
<03427> (8799)
in Shittim
<07851>_,
and the people
<05971>
began
<02490> (8686)
to commit whoredom
<02181> (8800)
with the daughters
<01323>
of Moab
<04124>_.
And they called
<07121> (8799)
the people
<05971>
unto the sacrifices
<02077>
of their gods
<0430>_:
and the people
<05971>
did eat
<0398> (8799)_,
and bowed down
<07812> (8691)
to their gods
<0430>_.
And Israel
<03478>
joined
<06775> (8735)
himself unto Baalpeor
<01187>_:
and the anger
<0639>
of the LORD
<03068>
was kindled
<02734> (8799)
against Israel
<03478>_.
And the LORD
<03068>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Moses
<04872>_,
Take
<03947> (8798)
all the heads
<07218>
of the people
<05971>_,
and hang them up
<03363> (8685)
before
<05048>
the LORD
<03068>
against the sun
<08121>_,
that the fierce
<02740>
anger
<0639>
of the LORD
<03068>
may be turned away
<07725> (8799)
from Israel
<03478>_.
And Moses
<04872>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto the judges
<08199> (8802)
of Israel
<03478>_,
Slay
<02026> (8798)
ye every
<0376>
one
<0376>
his men
<0582>
that were joined
<06775> (8737)
unto Baalpeor
<01187>_.
And, behold, one
<0376>
of the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
came
<0935> (8802)
and brought
<07126> (8686)
unto his brethren
<0251>
a Midianitish woman
<04084>
in the sight
<05869>
of Moses
<04872>_,
and in the sight
<05869>
of all the congregation
<05712>
of the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_,
who [were] weeping
<01058> (8802)
[before] the door
<06607>
of the tabernacle
<0168>
of the congregation
<04150>_.
And when Phinehas
<06372>_,
the son
<01121>
of Eleazar
<0499>_,
the son
<01121>
of Aaron
<0175>
the priest
<03548>_,
saw
<07200> (8799)
[it], he rose up
<06965> (8799)
from among
<08432>
the congregation
<05712>_,
and took
<03947> (8799)
a javelin
<07420>
in his hand
<03027>_;
And he went
<0935> (8799)
after
<0310>
the man
<0376>
of Israel
<03478>
into the tent
<06898>_,
and thrust
<01856> (8799)
both
<08147>
of them through, the man
<0376>
of Israel
<03478>_,
and the woman
<0802>
through
<0413>
her belly
<06897>_.
So the plague
<04046>
was stayed
<06113> (8735)
from the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_.
And those that died
<04191> (8801)
in the plague
<04046>
were twenty
<06242>
and four
<0702>
thousand
<0505>_.
And the LORD
<03068>
spake
<01696> (8762)
unto Moses
<04872>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Phinehas
<06372>_,
the son
<01121>
of Eleazar
<0499>_,
the son
<01121>
of Aaron
<0175>
the priest
<03548>_,
hath turned
<07725> (0)
my wrath
<02534>
away
<07725> (8689)
from the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_,
while he was zealous
<07065> (8763)
for my sake
<07068>
among
<08432>
them, that I consumed
<03615> (8765)
not the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
in my jealousy
<07068>_.
{for...: Heb. with my zeal}
Wherefore say
<0559> (8798)_,
Behold, I give
<05414> (8802)
unto him my covenant
<01285>
of peace
<07965>_:
And he shall have it, and his seed
<02233>
after
<0310>
him, [even] the covenant
<01285>
of an everlasting
<05769>
priesthood
<03550>_;
because
<0834>
he was zealous
<07065> (8765)
for his God
<0430>_,
and made an atonement
<03722> (8762)
for the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_.
Now the name
<08034>
of the Israelite
<0376>
that was slain
<05221> (8716)_,
[even] that was slain
<05221> (8717)
with the Midianitish woman
<04084>_,
[was] Zimri
<02174>_,
the son
<01121>
of Salu
<05543>_,
a prince
<05387>
of a chief
<01>
house
<01004>
among the Simeonites
<08099>_.
{chief...: Heb. house of a father}
And the name
<08034>
of the Midianitish
<04084>
woman
<0802>
that was slain
<05221> (8716)
[was] Cozbi
<03579>_,
the daughter
<01323>
of Zur
<06698>_;
he [was] head
<07218>
over a people
<0523>_,
[and] of a chief
<01>
house
<01004>
in Midian
<04080>_.
And the LORD
<03068>
spake
<01696> (8762)
unto Moses
<04872>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Vex
<06887> (8800)
the Midianites
<04084>_,
and smite
<05221> (8689)
them:
For they vex
<06887> (8802)
you with their wiles
<05231>_,
wherewith they have beguiled
<05230> (8765)
you in the matter
<01697>
of Peor
<06465>_,
and in the matter
<01697>
of Cozbi
<03579>_,
the daughter
<01323>
of a prince
<05387>
of Midian
<04080>_,
their sister
<0269>_,
which was slain
<05221> (8716)
in the day
<03117>
of the plague
<04046>
for Peor's
<06465>
sake
<01697>_.
