And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
And those that died in the plague were twenty and four thousand.
Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, hath turned my wrath away from the children of Israel, while he was zealous for my sake among them, that I consumed not the children of Israel in my jealousy.
And that was counted unto him for righteousness Unto all generations for evermore.
