Numbers 31:1-4 ▼

1 The LORD spoke to Moses,

2 “Execute vengeance for the Israelites against the Midianites. After that, you will be gathered to your people.”

3 So Moses spoke to the people, “Equip some of your men for war. They will go against Midian to inflict the LORD’s vengeance on them.

4 Send one thousand men to war from each Israelite tribe.”
