NU-31:1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
NU-31:2 Avenge the children of Israel of the Midianites:
afterward shalt thou
be gathered unto thy people.
NU-31:3 And Moses spake unto the people, saying, Arm some of
yourselves unto
the war, and let them go against the Midianites, and avenge the
LORD of
Midian.
NU-31:4 Of every tribe a thousand, throughout all the tribes of
Israel, shall
ye send to the war.
NU-31:5 So there were delivered out of the thousands of Israel,
a thousand of
[every] tribe, twelve thousand armed for war.
NU-31:6 And Moses sent them to the war, a thousand of [every]
tribe, them and
Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest, to the war, with the
holy instruments,
and the trumpets to blow in his hand.
NU-31:7 And they warred against the Midianites, as the LORD
commanded Moses;
and they slew all the males.
NU-31:8 And they slew the kings of Midian, beside the rest of
them that were
slain; [namely], Evi, and Rekem, and Zur, and Hur, and Reba,
five kings of
Midian: Balaam also the son of Beor they slew with the sword.
NU-31:9 And the children of Israel took [all] the women of
Midian captives,
and their little ones, and took the spoil of all their cattle,
and all their
flocks, and all their goods.
NU-31:10 And they burnt all their cities wherein they dwelt,
and all their
goodly castles, with fire.
NU-31:11 And they took all the spoil, and all the prey, [both]
of men and of
beasts.
NU-31:12 And they brought the captives, and the prey, and the
spoil, unto
Moses, and Eleazar the priest, and unto the congregation of the
children of
Israel, unto the camp at the plains of Moab, which [are] by
Jordan [near]
Jericho.
NU-31:13 And Moses, and Eleazar the priest, and all the princes
of the
congregation, went forth to meet them without the camp.
NU-31:14 And Moses was wroth with the officers of the host,
[with] the
captains over thousands, and captains over hundreds, which came
from the
battle.
NU-31:15 And Moses said unto them, Have ye saved all the women
alive?
NU-31:16 Behold, these caused the children of Israel, through
the counsel of
Balaam, to commit trespass against the LORD in the matter of
Peor, and there
was a plague among the congregation of the LORD.
NU-31:17 Now therefore kill every male among the little ones,
and kill every
woman that hath known man by lying with him.
NU-31:18 But all the women children, that have not known a man
by lying with
him, keep alive for yourselves.
NU-31:19 And do ye abide without the camp seven days: whosoever
hath killed
any person, and whosoever hath touched any slain, purify [both]
yourselves and
your captives on the third day, and on the seventh day.
NU-31:20 And purify all [your] raiment, and all that is made of
skins, and
all work of goats' [hair], and all things made of wood.
NU-31:21 And Eleazar the priest said unto the men of war which
