Numbers 25:1-9

1While IsraelH3478 remainedH3427 at 1ShittimH7851, the peopleH5971 beganH2490 2to playH2181 the harlotH2181 with the daughtersH1323 of MoabH4124. 2For 3they invitedH7121 the peopleH5971 to the sacrificesH2077 of their godsH430, and the peopleH5971 ateH398 and bowedH7812 downH7812 to their godsH430. 3So 4IsraelH3478 joinedH6775 themselves to 5BaalH1187 of PeorH1187, and the LordH3068 was angryH639H2734 against IsraelH3478. 4The LordH3068 saidH559 to MosesH4872, “TakeH3947 allH3605 the leadersH7218 of the peopleH5971 and executeH3363 them 6in broadH5048 daylightH8121 before the LordH3068, 7so that the fierceH2740 angerH639 of the LordH3068 may turnH7725 awayH7725 from IsraelH3478.” 5So MosesH4872 saidH559 to the judgesH8199 of IsraelH3478, “EachH376 of you 8slayH2026 his menH376 who have joinedH6775 themselves to 9BaalH1187 of PeorH1187.”

6Then beholdH2009, oneH376 of the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 cameH935 and broughtH7126 to his 10relativesH251 a 11MidianiteH4084 womanH4084, in the sightH5869 of MosesH4872 and in the sightH5869 of allH3605 the congregationH5712 of the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478, 12while they were weepingH1058 at the doorwayH6607 of the tentH168 of meetingH4150. 713When PhinehasH6372 the sonH1121 of EleazarH499, the sonH1121 of AaronH175 the priestH3548, sawH7200 it, he aroseH6965 from the midstH8432 of the congregationH5712 and tookH3947 a spearH7420 in his handH3027, 8and he wentH935 afterH310 the manH376 of IsraelH3478 into the 14tentH6898 and piercedH1856 bothH8147 of them throughH1856, the manH376 of IsraelH3478 and the womanH802, throughH413 the 15bodyH6896. 16So the plagueH4046 on the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 was checkedH6113. 917Those who diedH4191 by the plagueH4046 were 24,000H6242H702H505.
