Num 25:7
& When Phinehas the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, saw it, he arose from the midst of the congregation and took a spear in his hand,
Num 25:8
& and he went after the man of Israel into the tent and pierced both of them through, the man of Israel and the woman, through the body. So the plague on the sons of Israel was checked.
Num 25:9
& Those who died by the plague were 24,000.
Num 25:10
& Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
Num 25:11

Num 25:12
& ~"Therefore say, `Behold, I give him My covenant of peace;
Num 25:13
& and it shall be for him and his descendants after him, a covenant of a perpetual priesthood, because he was jealous for his God and made atonement for the sons of Israel."'
