Bamidbar 25:4-6

Orthodox Jewish Bible

⁴ And Hashem said unto Moshe, Take Kol Rashei HaAm, and kill them, hanging them [on a tree, stake], before Hashem against the shemesh, that the fierce Af Hashem (Anger of Hashem) may be turned away from Yisroel.

⁵ And Moshe said unto the shofetim of Yisroel, Slay ye every one his men that were joined unto Baal-Peor.

⁶ And, hinei, one of the Bnei Yisroel came and brought unto his brethren a woman from Midyan before the eyes of Moshe, and before the eyes of Kol Adat Bnei Yisroel, who were weeping before the entrance of the Ohel Mo’ed.
