|
4. And the LORD H3068 said H559 unto H413 Moses H4872 , Take H3947 H853 all H3605 the heads H7218 of the people H5971 , and hang them up H3363 H853 before the LORD H3068 against H5048 the sun H8121 , that the fierce H2740 anger H639 of the LORD H3068 may be turned away H7725 from Israel H4480 H3478 .

|
|
7. and Phinehas, son of Eleazar, son of Aaron, the priest, seeth, and riseth from the midst of the company, and taketh a javelin in his hand,

7. And when Phinehas H6372 , the son H1121 of Eleazar H499 , the son H1121 of Aaron H175 the priest H3548 , saw H7200 it , he rose up H6965 from among H4480 H8432 the congregation H5712 , and took H3947 a javelin H7420 in his hand H3027 ;
|
|
8. and goeth in after the man of Israel unto the hollow place, and pierceth them both, the man of Israel and the woman -- unto her belly, and the plague is restrained from the sons of Israel;
|
8.

So the plague H4046 was stayed H6113 from H4480 H5921 the children H1121 of Israel H3478 .
|
|
9. and the dead by the plague are four and twenty thousand.
|

|
10. And the LORD H3068 spoke H1696 unto H413 Moses H4872 , saying H559 ,
|
|
11. `Phinehas, son of Eleazar, son of Aaron the priest, hath turned back My fury from the sons of Israel, by his being zealous with My zeal in their midst, and I have not consumed the sons of Israel in My zeal.
|
11. Phinehas H6372 , the son H1121 of Eleazar H499 , the son H1121 of Aaron H175 the priest H3548 , hath turned my wrath away H7725 H853 H2534 from H4480 H5921 the children H1121 of Israel H3478 , while he was zealous H7065 for my sake H854 H7068 among H8432 them , that I consumed H3615 not H3808 H853 the children H1121 of Israel H3478 in my jealousy H7068 .
|
|
12. `Therefore say, Lo, I am giving to him My covenant of peace,
|
12. Wherefore H3651 say H559 , Behold H2009 , I give H5414 unto him H853 my covenant H1285 of peace H7965 :
|
|
13. and it hath been to him and to his seed after him a covenant of a priesthood age-during, because that he hath been zealous for his God, and doth make atonement for the sons of Israel.`
|
13. And he shall have H1961 it , and his seed H2233 after H310 him, even the covenant H1285 of an everlasting H5769 priesthood H3550 ; because H8478 H834 he was zealous H7065 for his God H430 , and made an atonement H3722 for H5921 the children H1121 of Israel H3478 .
|
|
14. And the name of the man of Israel who is smitten, who hath been smitten with the Midianitess, is Zimri son of Salu, prince of the house of a father of the Simeonite;

14. Now the name H8034 of the Israelite H376 H3478 that was slain H5221 even that H834 was slain H5221 with H854 the Midianitish woman H4084 , was Zimri H2174 , the son H1121 of Salu H5543 , a prince H5387 of a chief H1 house H1004 among the Simeonites H8099 .
|
|
15. and the name of the woman who is smitten, the Midianitess, is Cozbi daughter of Zur, head of a people -- of the house of a father in Midian is he.
|
15. And the name H8034 of the Midianitish H4084 woman H802 that was slain H5221 was Cozbi H3579 , the daughter H1323 of Zur H6698 ; he H1931 was head H7218 over a people H523 , and of a chief H1 house H1004 in Midian H4080 .
|
|
16. And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
|
16. And the LORD H3068 spoke H1696 unto H413 Moses H4872 , saying H559 ,
|
|
17. `Distress the Midianites, and ye have smitten them,
|
17. Vex H6887 H853 the Midianites H4084 , and smite H5221 them:
|
|
18. for they are adversaries to you with their frauds, with which they have acted fraudulently to you, concerning the matter of Peor, and concerning the matter of Cozbi, daughter of a prince of Midian, their sister, who is smitten in the day of the plague for the matter of Peor.`
|
18. For H3588 they H1992 vex H6887 you with their wiles H5231 , wherewith H834 they have beguiled H5230 you in H5921 the matter H1697 of Peor H6465 , and in H5921 the matter H1697 of Cozbi H3579 , the daughter H1323 of a prince H5387 of Midian H4080 , their sister H269 , which was slain H5221 in the day H3117 of the plague H4046 for Peor's sake H5921 H1697 H6465 .
