Numbers 31:2-6

YLT(i) 2 `Execute the vengeance of the sons of Israel against the Midianites—afterwards thou art gathered unto thy people.' 3 And Moses speaketh unto the people, saying, `Be ye armed some of you for the host, and they are against Midian, to put the vengeance of Jehovah on Midian; 4 a thousand for a tribe—a thousand for a tribe, to all the tribes of Israel—ye do send to the host.' 5 And there are given out of the thousands of Israel a thousand for a tribe, twelve thousand armed ones of the host; 6 and Moses sendeth them, a thousand for a tribe, to the host, them and Phinehas son of Eleazar the priest, to the host; and the holy vessels, and the trumpets of the shouting, in his hand.
