以色列人與巴力‧毗珥連合，耶和華的怒氣就向以色列人發作。
4 And he said Yahweh to Moses take all [the] leaders of the people and impale them to Yahweh before the sun so may it turn away [the] burning of [the] anger of Yahweh from Israel.
耶和華吩咐摩西說：「將百姓中所有的族長在我面前對着日頭懸掛，使我向以色列人所發的怒氣可以消了。」
5 And he said Moses to [the] judges of Israel kill everyone men his who have joined themselves to Baal Peor.
於是摩西吩咐以色列的審判官說：「凡屬你們的人，有與巴力‧毗珥連合的，你們各人要把他們殺了。」
6 And there! a man from [the] people of Israel [was] coming and he brought near to brothers his the Midianite [woman] to [the] eyes of Moses and to [the] eyes of all [the] congregation of [the] people of Israel and they [were] weeping [the] entrance of [the] tent of meeting.
摩西和以色列全會眾正在會幕門前哭泣的時候，誰知，有以色列中的一個人，當他們眼前，帶着一個米甸女人到他弟兄那裏去。

祭司亞倫的孫子，以利亞撒的兒子非尼哈看見了，就從會中起來，手裏拿着槍，
8 And he went after [the] man of Israel into the tent and he pierced through both of them [the] man of Israel and the woman into belly her and it was restrained the plague from on [the] people of Israel.
跟隨那以色列人進亭子裏去，便將以色列人和那女人由腹中刺透。這樣，在以色列人中瘟疫就止息了。
9 And they were those [who] died by the plague four and twenty thousand.
那時遭瘟疫死的，有二萬四千人。

耶和華曉諭摩西說：
11 Phinehas [the] son of Eleazar [the] son of Aaron the priest he has turned back rage my from against [the] people of Israel because was zealous he zeal my in midst of them and not I made an end of [the] people of Israel in zeal my.
「祭司亞倫的孫子，以利亞撒的兒子非尼哈，使我向以色列人所發的怒消了；因他在他們中間，以我的忌邪為心，使我不在忌邪中把他們除滅。
12 Therefore say here I [am] about to give to him covenant my peace.
因此，你要說：『我將我平安的約賜給他。
13 And it will belong to him and to offspring his after him a covenant of priesthood of perpetuity because that he was zealous for God his and he made atonement on [the] people of Israel.
這約要給他和他的後裔，作為永遠當祭司職任的約；因他為上帝有忌邪的心，為以色列人贖罪。』」

「你要擾害米甸人，擊殺他們；
18 For [are] opposers they you by deceitfulness their which they have dealt deceptively to you on [the] matter of Peor and on [the] matter of Cozbi [the] daughter of [the] leader of Midian sister their who was struck down on [the] day of the plague on [the] matter of Peor.
因為他們用詭計擾害你們，在毗珥的事上和他們的姊妹、米甸首領的女兒哥斯比的事上，用這詭計誘惑了你們；這哥斯比，當瘟疫流行的日子，因毗珥的事被殺了。」
