Numbers 31:11-20
11and carried awayH3947 allH3605 the plunderH7998 andH3605 spoilsH4455, both peopleH120 and animalsH929.
12They broughtH935 the captivesH7628, spoilsH4455, and plunderH7998 toH413 MosesH4872, toH413 EleazarH499 the priestH3548, and toH413 the congregationH5712H1121 of IsraelH3478 atH413 the campH4264 onH413 the plainsH6160 of MoabH4124, byH5921 the JordanH3383 across from JerichoH3405. 13And MosesH4872, EleazarH499 the priestH3548, and allH3605 the leadersH5387 of the congregationH5712 wentH3318 to meet themH7122H413 outsideH2351 the campH4264.
14But MosesH4872 was angryH7107 withH5921 the officersH6485 of the armyH2428—the commandersH8269 of thousandsH505 and commandersH8269 of hundredsH3967—who were returningH935 fromH6635 the battleH4421. 15“Have you sparedH2421 allH3605 the womenH5347?” heH4872 asked themH559H413. 16“LookH2005, these womenH2007 causedH1961 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478, through the counselH1697 of BalaamH1109, to turnH4560 unfaithfullyH4604 against the LORDH3068 atH5921 PeorH6465, so that the plagueH4046 struckH1961 the congregationH5712 of the LORDH3068. 17So nowH6258, killH2026 allH3605 the boysH2145H2945, as well asH2026 everyH3605 womanH802 who has had relations withH3045H376H4904 a manH2145, 18but spareH2421 for yourselves everyH3605 girlH2945H802 whoH834 has neverH3808 had relationsH3045H4904 with a manH2145.
19All of youH3605 who have killedH2026 a personH5315H3605 or touchedH5060 the deadH2491 are to remainH2583 outsideH2351 the campH4264 for sevenH7651 daysH3117. On the thirdH7992 dayH3117 and the seventhH7637 dayH3117 you are to purifyH2398 both yourselvesH859 and your captivesH7628. 20And purifyH2398 everyH3605 garmentH899 and leatherH5785H3605 goodH3627, everythingH4639 made of goat’s hairH5795, and everyH3605 articleH3627 of woodH6086.”
