  1. Judges 5:23 Or Angel

And indeed, one of the children of Israel came and presented to his brethren a Midianite woman in the sight of Moses and in the sight of all the congregation of the children of Israel, (A)who were weeping at the door of the tabernacle of meeting. Now (B)when Phinehas (C)the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, saw it, he rose from among the congregation and took a javelin in his hand; and he went after the man of Israel into the tent and thrust both of them through, the man of Israel, and the woman through her body. So (D)the plague was (E)stopped among the children of Israel. And (F)those who died in the plague were twenty-four thousand.

10 Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying: 11 (G)“Phinehas the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, has turned back My wrath from the children of Israel, because he was zealous with My zeal among them, so that I did not consume the children of Israel in (H)My zeal. 12 Therefore say, (I)‘Behold, I give to him My (J)covenant of peace; 13 and it shall be to him and (K)his descendants after him a covenant of (L)an everlasting priesthood, because he was (M)zealous for his God, and (N)made [a]atonement for the children of Israel.’ ”
