Numbers 31:7-12

The Battle and the Spoils Taken

7
And when they had fought against the Madianites and had overcome them, they slew all the men.
8
And their kings Evi, and Recem, and Sur, and Hur, and Rebe, five princes of the nation: Balaam also the son of Beor they killed with the sword.
9
And they took their women, and their children captives, and all their cattle, and all their goods: and all their possessions they plundered:
10
And all their cities, and their villages, and castles, they burned.
11
And they carried away the booty, and all that they had taken both of men and of beasts.
12
And they brought them to Moses, and Eleazar the priest, and to all the multitude of the children of Israel. But the rest of the things for use they carried to the camp on the plains of Moab, beside the Jordan over against Jericho.
