Numbers 31:16-18

Jubilee Bible 2000

¹⁶ Behold, these caused the sons of Israel through the counsel of Balaam to commit trespass against the LORD in the matter of Peor for which there was a plague among the congregation of the LORD.

¹⁷ Now therefore kill every male among the little ones and kill every woman that has known a man by lying with him.

¹⁸ But all the female children that have not known a man by lying with him keep alive for yourselves.
