Numbers 31:2-6

EJ2000(i) 2 Avenge the sons of Israel upon the Midianites; afterward thou shalt be gathered unto thy peoples. 3 And Moses spoke unto the people, saying, Arm some of yourselves unto the war and let them go against the Midianites and carry out the vengeance of the LORD in Midian. 4 A thousand out of every tribe throughout all the tribes of Israel shall ye send to the war. 5 So there were delivered out of the thousands of Israel a thousand of every tribe, twelve thousand armed for war. 6 And Moses sent them to the war; he sent a thousand of every tribe; and Phinehas, the son of Eleazar the priest, went to the war with the holy instruments, with the trumpets to blow in his hand.
