Numbers 25:6-13

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.

10And Jehovah spokeH1696 to 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.

12ThereforeH3651 sayH559, Behold, I giveH5414 unto him my covenantH1285 of peaceH7965!

13And he shall have it, and his seedH2233 after him, the covenantH1285 of an everlasting priesthoodH3550; because he wasH1961 jealousH7065 for his 1GodH430, and made atonementH3722 for the children of IsraelH3478.
