13 And Moses and Eleazar, the priest, and all the princes of the congregation went forth to meet them outside the camp.
14 And Moses was angry with the officers of the host, with the captains over thousands and captains over hundreds who returned from the battle.
15 And Moses said unto them, Have ye saved all the women alive?
16 Behold, these caused the sons of Israel through the counsel of Balaam to commit trespass against the Lord in the matter of Peor for which 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 has known a man by lying with him.
18 But all the female children that have not known a man by lying with him keep alive for yourselves.
19 And ye must abide outside the camp seven days; and whoever has killed any person and whoever has touched any dead body ye shall remove the sin from them on the third and on the seventh day, both of yourselves and of your captives.
