The Battle and the Spoils Taken
Numbers 31:7-12
7
Then they waged war against Midian, as the LORD had commanded Moses, and they killed every male.
8
Among the slain were Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba—the five kings of Midian. They also killed Balaam son of Beor with the sword.
9
The Israelites captured the Midianite women and their children, and they plundered all their herds, flocks, and goods.
10
Then they burned all the cities where the Midianites had lived, as well as all their encampments,
11
and carried away all the plunder and spoils, both people and animals.
12
They brought the captives, spoils, and plunder to Moses, to Eleazar the priest, and to the congregation of Israel at the camp on the plains of Moab, by the Jordan across from Jericho.
