Numbers 31:6-8
1599 Geneva Bible
6 And Moses sent them to the war, even a thousand of every tribe, and sent them with [a]Phinehas the son of Eleazar the Priest to the war: and the holy instruments, that is, the trumpets to blow were in his hand.
7 And they warred against Midian, as the Lord had commanded Moses, and slew all the males.
8 They slew also the kings of Midian among them that were slain: (A)Evi, and Rekem, and Zur, and Hur, and Reba, five kings of Midian, and they slew [b]Balaam the son of Beor with the sword.
