1 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying, 2 “Take vengeance for the Israelites on the Midianites; afterward you will be gathered to your people [in death].” 3 Moses spoke to the people, saying, “Arm men from among you for war, so that they may go against Midian to execute the LORD’S vengeance on Midian [for seducing Israel to participate in idolatry]. 4 A thousand [fighting men] from each tribe of all the tribes of Israel you shall send to the war.” Numbers 31:1-4, Amplified Bible.
