3 Moïse parla au peuple, et dit: Équipez d’entre vous des hommes pour l’armée, et qu’ils marchent contre Madian, afin d’exécuter la vengeance de l’Éternel sur Madian.

4 Vous enverrez à l’armée mille hommes par tribu, de toutes les tribus d’Israël.

5 On leva d’entre les milliers d’Israël mille hommes par tribu, soit douze mille hommes équipés pour l’armée.

6 Moïse envoya à l’armée ces mille hommes par tribu, et avec eux le fils du sacrificateur Éléazar, Phinées, qui portait les instruments sacrés et les trompettes retentissantes.

7 Ils s’avancèrent contre Madian, selon l’ordre que l’Éternel avait donné à Moïse; et ils tuèrent tous les mâles.
