Numbers 25:7-9

Lexham English Bible

⁷ When Phinehas son of Eleazar son of Aaron the priest saw, he got up from the midst of the community and took a spear in his hand. ⁸ He went after the man of Israel into the woman’s section of the tent, and he drove the two of them, the man of Israel and the woman, into her belly. And the plague among the Israelites^[a] stopped. ⁹ The ones who died in the plague were twenty-four thousand.
