Numbers 31:17 in Context — Numbers 31
15 Y díjoles Moisés: ¿Todas las mujeres habéis reservado?
16 He aquí ellas fueron á los hijos de Israel, por consejo de Balaam, para causar prevaricación contra Jehová en el negocio de Peor; por lo que hubo mortandad en la congregación de Jehová.
17 Matad pues ahora todos los varones entre los niños: matad también toda mujer que haya conocido varón carnalmente.
18 Y todas las niñas entre las mujeres, que no hayan conocido ayuntamiento de varón, os reservaréis vivas.
19 Y vosotros quedaos fuera del campo siete días: y todos los que hubieren matado persona, y cualquiera que hubiere tocado muerto, os purificaréis al tercero y al séptimo día, vosotros y vuestros cautivos.
