15. Moses said to them, “Have you saved all the women alive?
16. Behold, these caused the children of Israel, through the counsel of Balaam, to commit trespass against the Lord in the matter of Peor, and so the plague was amongst the congregation of the Lord.
17. Now therefore kill every male amongst the little ones, and kill every woman who has known man by lying with him.
18. But all the girls, who have not known man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves.
19. “Encamp outside of the camp for seven days. Whoever has killed any person, and whoever has touched any slain, purify yourselves on the third day and on the seventh day, you and your captives.
20. You shall purify every garment, and all that is made of skin, and all work of goats’ hair, and all things made of wood.”
