Numbers 25:7-13
7And when PhinehasH6372, the sonH1121 of EleazarH499, the sonH1121 of AaronH175 the priestH3548, sawH7200 it, he rose upH6965 from amongH8432 the congregationH5712, and tookH3947 a javelinH7420 in his handH3027; 8And he wentH935 afterH310 the manH376 of IsraelH3478 into the tentH6898, and thrustH1856 bothH8147 of them through, the manH376 of IsraelH3478, and the womanH802 throughH413 her bellyH6897. So the plagueH4046 was stayedH6113 from the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478. 9And those that diedH4191 in the plagueH4046 were twentyH6242 and fourH702 thousandH505.
10And YhwhH3068 spakeH1696 unto MosesH4872, sayingH559, 11PhinehasH6372, the sonH1121 of EleazarH499, the sonH1121 of AaronH175 the priestH3548, hath turnedH7725 my wrathH2534 awayH7725 from the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, while he was zealousH7065 for my sakeH7068 amongH8432 them, that I consumedH3615 not the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 in my jealousyH7068.1 12Wherefore sayH559, Behold, I giveH5414 unto him my covenantH1285 of peaceH7965: 13And he shall have it, and his seedH2233 afterH310 him, even the covenantH1285 of an everlastingH5769 priesthoodH3550; becauseH834 he was zealousH7065 for his GodH430, and made an atonementH3722 for the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478.
