Numbers 25:1-9

1And IsraelH3478 abode in ShittimH7851; and the peopleH5971 beganH2490 to commit fornication with the daughtersH1323 of MoabH4124.

2And they invited the peopleH5971 to the sacrificesH2077 of their 1godsH430; and the peopleH5971 ateH398, and bowedH7812 downH7812 to their 2godsH430.

3And IsraelH3478 joinedH6775 himself to Baal-PeorH1187; and the angerH639 of Jehovah was kindled against IsraelH3478.

4And Jehovah saidH559 to MosesH4872, TakeH3947 all the headsH7218 of the peopleH5971, and hang them up to Jehovah before the sunH8121, that the fierce angerH639 of Jehovah may be turnedH7725 awayH7725 from IsraelH3478.

5And MosesH4872 saidH559 to the judgesH8199 of IsraelH3478, SlayH2026 every oneH376 his menH376 that have joinedH6775 themselves to Baal-PeorH1187.

6And behold, a manH376 of the children of IsraelH3478 cameH935 and broughtH935 a Midianitish womanH4084 to his brethren, in the sight of MosesH4872, and in the sight of the whole assemblyH5712 of the children of IsraelH3478, who were weepingH1058 before the entranceH6607 of the tentH168 of meetingH4150.

7And PhinehasH6372, the sonH1121 of EleazarH499, the sonH1121 of AaronH175 the priestH3548, sawH7200 it, and roseH6965 up from among the assemblyH5712, and tookH3947 a javelin in his handH3027,

8and he wentH935 after the manH376 of IsraelH3478 into the tent-chamber, and thrust both of them through, the manH376 of IsraelH3478 and the womanH802 through her belly. And the plagueH4046 was stayed from the children of IsraelH3478.

9And those that diedH4191 in the plagueH4046 wereH1961 twenty-four thousandH505.
