Numbers 25:11-13

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹¹ Phinehas son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, has turned my wrath away from the Israelites, in that he was jealous with My jealousy among them, so that I did not consume the Israelites in My jealousy.

¹² Therefore say, Behold, I give to Phinehas the priest My covenant of peace.

¹³ And he shall have it, and his descendants after him, the covenant of an everlasting priesthood, because he was jealous for his God and made atonement for the Israelites.^(A)
