Midianites » With the moabites » Punished for seducing israel
Then the Lord said to Moses, Take up arms against the Midianites and overcome them; For they are a danger to you with their false ways, causing sin to come on you in the question of Peor, and because of Cozbi, their sister, the daughter of the chief of Midian, who was put to death at the time of the disease which came on you because of Peor.
Then the Lord said to Moses, Give the Midianites punishment for the wrong they did to the children of Israel: and after that you will go to rest with your people. So Moses said to the people, Let men from among you be armed for war to put into effect against Midian the Lord's punishment on them. read more.
From every tribe of Israel send a thousand to the war. So from the thousands of Israel a thousand were taken from every tribe, twelve thousand men armed for war. And Moses sent them out to war, a thousand from every tribe, and with them Phinehas, the son of Eleazar the priest, taking in his hands the vessels of the holy place and the horns for sounding the note of war. And they made war on Midian, as the Lord gave orders to Moses; and they put to death every male. They put the kings of Midian to death with the rest, Evi and Reken and Zur and Hur and Reba, the five kings of Midian: and Balaam, the son of Beor, they put to death with the sword. The women of Midian with their little ones the children of Israel took prisoner; and all their cattle and flocks and all their goods they took for themselves; And after burning all their towns and all their tent-circles, They went away with the goods they had taken, man and beast. And the prisoners and the goods and everything they had taken, they took to Moses and Eleazar the priest and the people of Israel, to the tent-circle in the lowlands of Moab by the Jordan at Jericho.
