71When PhinehasH6372 the sonH1121 of EleazarH499, the sonH1121 of AaronH175 the priestH3548, sawH7200 it, he roseH6965 upH6965 from the midstH8432 of the congregationH5712 and tookH3947 a spearH7420 in his handH3027, 8and he wentH935 afterH310 the manH376 of IsraelH3478 into the innerH6898 roomH6898 ofH6898 theH6898 tentH6898 and piercedH1856 bothH8147 of them, the manH376 of IsraelH3478 and the womanH802, throughH413 the abdomenH6896. 2So the plagueH4046 on the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 was broughtH6113 toH6113 aH6113 haltH6113. 93But those who diedH4191 from the plagueH4046 were twenty-fourH6242H702 thousandH505 in number.
10Then the LordH3068 spokeH1696 to MosesH4872, sayingH559, 11“4PhinehasH6372 the sonH1121 of EleazarH499, the sonH1121 of AaronH175 the priestH3548, has avertedH7725 My wrathH2534 from the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 in that he wasH7065 5jealousH7065 with My 6jealousyH7068 amongH8432 them, so that I did not destroyH3615 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 7in My 8jealousyH7068. 12ThereforeH3651 sayH559, ‘9BeholdH2009, I am givingH5414 him My 10covenantH1285 of peaceH7965; 13and it shall be for him and for his 11descendantsH2233 afterH310 him, a covenantH1285 of a 12permanentH5769 priesthoodH3550, becauseH834H8478 he wasH7065 13jealousH7065 for his GodH430 and 14madeH3722 atonementH3722 for the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478.’”
