Numbers 25:3-5

New American Standard Bible 1995

³ So ^(A)Israel joined themselves to ^[a]Baal of Peor, and the Lord was angry against Israel. ⁴ The Lord said to Moses, “Take all the leaders of the people and execute them ^[b]in broad daylight before the Lord, ^(B)so that the fierce anger of the Lord may turn away from Israel.” ⁵ So Moses said to the judges of Israel, “Each of you ^(C)slay his men who have joined themselves to ^[c]Baal of Peor.”
