13 And Moses, and Eleazar the priest, and all the princes of the congregation, go out to meet them, to the outside of the camp, 14 and Moses is angry against the inspectors of the force, chiefs of the thousands, and chiefs of the hundreds, who are coming in from the warfare of battle. 15 And Moses says to them, “Have you kept every female alive? 16 Behold, they have been to the sons of Israel, through the word of Balaam, to cause a trespass against YHWH in the matter of Peor, and the plague is in the congregation of YHWH. 17 And now, slay every male among the infants, indeed, slay every woman knowing a man by the lying of a male; 18 and all the infants among the women who have not known the lying of a male you have kept alive for yourselves.
