Numbers 25:7-13

7And when PhinehasH6372, the sonH1121 of EleazarH499, the sonH1121 of AaronH175 the priestH3548, sawH7200 it, he roseH6965 up from the midstH8432 of the congregationH5712, and tookH3947 a spearH7420 in his handH3027; 8and he wentH935 after the manH376 of IsraelH3478 into the pavilion, and thrust both of them through, the manH376 of IsraelH3478, and the womanH802 through her body. So the plagueH4046 was stayed from the children of IsraelH3478. 9And those that diedH4191 by the plagueH4046 wereH1961 twentyH6242 and fourH702 thousandH505.

10And Jehovah spake unto MosesH4872, sayingH559, 11PhinehasH6372, the sonH1121 of EleazarH499, the sonH1121 of AaronH175 the priestH3548, hath turnedH7725 my wrathH2534 awayH7725 from the children of IsraelH3478, in that he was jealousH7065 with my jealousyH7068 among them, so that I consumed not the children of IsraelH3478 in my jealousyH7068. 12Wherefore sayH559, Behold, I giveH5414 unto him my covenantH1285 of peaceH7965: 13and it shall beH1961 unto him, and to his seedH2233 after him, the covenantH1285 of an everlasting priesthoodH3550; because he wasH1961 jealousH7065 for his GodH430, and made atonementH3722 for the children of IsraelH3478.
