³ Baal of Peor. So the Lord was angry with them ⁴ and said to Moses, “Take all the leaders of Israel and, in obedience to me, execute them in broad daylight,^[a] and then I will no longer be angry with the people.” ⁵ Moses said to the officials, “Each of you is to kill every man in your tribe who has become a worshiper of Baal of Peor.”
