Numbers 25 — LXXSB
25Verse 1And Israel sojourned in Sattin, and the people+profaned itself by going a-whoring after the daughters of Moab.Verse 2And they called them to the sacrifices of their idols; and the people ate of their sacrifices, and worshipped their idols.Verse 3And Israel consecrated themselves to Beel-phegor; and the Lord was very angry with Israel.Verse 4And the Lord said to Moses, Take all the princes of the people, and+make them examples of judgement for the Lord in the face of the sun, and the anger of the Lord shall be turned away from Israel.Verse 5And Moses said to the tribes of Israel, Slay you⌃ every one his friend that is consecrated to Beel-phegor.Verse 6And, behold, a man of the children of Israel came and brought his brother to a Madianitish woman before Moses, and before all the congregation of the children of Israel; and they were weeping at the door of the tabernacle of witness.Verse 7And Phinees the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, saw it, and rose out of the midst of the congregation, and took a+javelin in his hand,Verse 8and went in after the Israelitish man into the+chamber, and pierced them both through, both the Israelitish man, and the woman through her womb; and the plague was stayed from the children of Israel.Verse 9And those that died in the plague were four and twenty thousand.Verse 10And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,Verse 11Phinees the son of Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest has caused my wrath to cease from the children of Israel, when I was exceedingly jealous+amongst them, and I did not consume the children of Israel in my jealousy.Verse 12Thus do you say to him, Behold, I give him a covenant of peace:Verse 13and he and his seed after him shall have a perpetual covenant of priesthood, because he was zealous for his God, and made atonement for the children of Israel.Verse 14Now the name of the struck Israelitish man, who was struck with the Madianitish woman, was Zambri son of Salmon, prince of a house of the tribe of Symeon.Verse 15And the name of the Madianitish woman who was struck, was Chasbi, daughter of Sur, a prince of the nation of Ommoth: it is a chief house amongst the people of Madiam.Verse 16And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, Speak to the children of Israel, saying,Verse 17Plague the Madianites as enemies, and strike them,Verse 18for they are enemies to you by the treachery wherein they ensnare you through Phogor, and through Chasbi their sister, daughter of a prince of Madiam, who was struck in the day of the plague because of Phogor.
