14And Moses was angry with the chiefs of the army, the captains of thousands and the captains of hundreds who had come back from the war.
15And Moses said to them, Why have you kept all the women safe?
16It was these who, moved by Balaam, were the cause of Israel's sin against the Lord in the question of Peor, because of which disease came on the people of the Lord.
17So now put every male child to death, and every woman who has had sex relations with a man.
18But all the female children who have had no sex relations with men, you may keep for yourselves.
19You yourselves will have to keep outside the tent-circle for seven days, anyone of you who has put any person to death or come near a dead body; and on the third day and on the seventh day make yourselves and your prisoners clean.
20And every bit of clothing, and anything made of leather or goats' hair or wood, you are to make clean.
