Revised Version 1895
Numbers 31:7-17
7And they warred againstH5921 MidianH4080, as the LORDH3068 commandedH6680 MosesH4872; and they slewH2026 everyH3605 maleH2145.
8And they slewH2026 the kingsH4428 of MidianH4080 with the rest of their slainH2026; EviH189, and RekemH7552, and ZurH6698, and HurH2354, and RebaH7254, the fiveH2568 kingsH4428 of MidianH4080: BalaamH1109 also the sonH1121 of BeorH1160 they slewH2026 with the swordH2719.
9And the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 tookH7617 captiveH7617 the womenH802 of MidianH4080 and their littleH2945 onesH2945; and allH3605 their cattleH929, and allH3605 their flocksH4735, and allH3605 their goodsH2428, they tookH7617 for a preyH962.
10And allH3605 their citiesH5892 in the placesH4186 wherein they dwelt, and allH3605 their encampmentsH2918, they burntH8313 with fireH784.
11And they tookH3947 allH3605 the spoilH7998, and allH3605 the prey, bothH3605 of manH120 and of beastH929.
12And they broughtH935 the captivesH7628, and the prey, and the spoilH7998, unto MosesH4872, and unto EleazarH499 the priestH3548, and unto the congregationH5712 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, unto the campH4264 at the plainsH6160 of MoabH4124, whichH834 are by the JordanH3383 at JerichoH3405.
13And MosesH4872, and EleazarH499 the priestH3548, and allH3605 the princesH5387 of the congregationH5712, wentH3318 forthH3318 to meetH7125 them without the campH4264.
14And MosesH4872 was wroth with the officersH8269 of the hostH6635, the captainsH8269 of thousandsH505 and the captainsH8269 of hundredsH3967, whichH6635 cameH935 from the serviceH6635 of the warH4421.
15And MosesH4872 saidH559 unto them, Have ye saved allH3605 the womenH5347 aliveH2421?
16BeholdH2005, theseH2007 causedH1961 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, throughH5921 the counselH1697 of BalaamH1109, to commit trespassH4604 againstH5921 the LORDH3068 in the matterH1697 of PeorH6465, and soH1961 the plagueH4046 was among the congregationH5712 of the LORDH3068.
17NowH6258 therefore killH2026 everyH3605 maleH2145 among the littleH2945 onesH2945, and killH2026 everyH3605 womanH802 that hath knownH3045 manH376 by lyingH4904 with him.
