Numbers 31:2-10

2Avenge the children of Israel upon the Midianites; afterwards shalt thou be gathered unto thy peoples.

3And Moses spoke to the people, saying, Arm from amongst you men for military service, that they go against Midian to execute Jehovah's vengeance upon Midian.

4Of every tribe a thousand, of all the tribes of Israel, shall ye send to the war.

5And there were levied out of the thousands of Israel, a thousand by tribe, twelve thousand armed for war.

6And Moses sent them to the war, a thousand by the tribe, them and Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest, to the war, and the holy instruments, even the alarm-trumpets in his hand.

7And they warred against Midian, as Jehovah had commanded Moses, and slew all the males.

8And they slew the kings of Midian, besides the others slain, Evi, and Rekem, and Zur, and Hur, and Reba, five kings of Midian; and Balaam the son of Beor they slew with the sword.

9And the children of Israel took the women of Midian captives, and their little ones, and took for a spoil all their cattle and all their flocks and all their goods;

10and all their cities in their settlements and all their encampments they burned with fire.
