Numbers 31:14-18
-
14 And Moses was wroth with the officers of the host, with the captains over thousands, and captains over hundreds, which came from the battle.
-
15 And Moses said unto them, Have ye saved all the women alive?
-
16 Behold, these caused the children of Israel, through the counsel of Balaam, to commit trespass against the LORD in the matter of Peor, and 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 hath known man by lying with him.
-
18 But all the women children, that have not known a man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves.
