Moab Seduces Israel
(1 Corinthians 10:1–13)

1And Israel will dwell in Shittim, and the people will begin to commit fornication with the daughters of Moab. 2And she called the people to the sacrifices of their God: and the people will eat and will worship to their God. 3And Israel will be bound to Baal-Peor; and the anger of Jehovah will kindle against Israel. 4And Jehovah will say to Moses, Take all the heads of the people and hang them up to Jehovah before the sun, and the burning anger of Jehovah shall turn back from Israel. 5And Moses will say to the judges of Israel, Kill ye each his men being bound to Baal-Peor.

The Zeal of Phinehas

6And behold, a man from the sons of Israel went, and he will bring to his brethren a Midianitess before the eyes of Moses, and before the eyes of all the assembly of the sons of Israel; and they were weeping at the door of the tent of appointment. 7And Phinehas the son of Eleazar, son of Aaron the priest, will see, and he will rise up from the midst of the assembly and will take a spear in his hand; 8And he will go after the man of Israel to the tent, and will pierce the two of them, the man of Israel, and the woman through her belly: and the smiting will be withheld from the sons of Israel. 9And they dying in the smiting will be four and twenty thousand.

10And Jehovah will speak to Moses, saying, 11Phinehas, son of Eleazar, son of Aaron the priest, turned back my wrath from the sons of Israel, in his being jealous with my jealousy in the midst of you, and I consumed not the sons of Israel, in my jealousy. 12For this, say, behold me giving to him my covenant of peace. 13And it shall be to him and to his seed after him, the covenant of the priesthood forever, because he was jealous for his God; and he shall expiate for the sons of Israel.

14And the name of the man the Israelite being smitten, who was smitten with the Midianitess, Zimri, son of Salu, chief of the house of a father to the Simeonites. 15And the woman's name being smitten, the Midianitess, Cozbi, daughter of Zur, head of a people, he of the house of a father in Median.

16And Jehovah will speak to Moses, saying, 17Press the Midianites and smite them: 18For they are hostile to you with their deceits in which they acted deceitfully to you, upon the word of Peor and upon the word of Cozbi, daughter of a chief of Midian, their sister, being smitten in the day of the smiting concerning the word of Peor.
