4 Yahweh said to Moses, “Take all the leaders[a] of the people and kill them before the sun, so the fierce anger of Yahweh will turn from Israel.” 5 So Moses said to the judges of Israel, “Each of you kill his men who are joined together with Baal Peor.”
6 And behold, a man from the Israelites[b] came and brought to his brothers a Midianite woman before the eyes of Moses and before the eyes of all of the community of the Israelites,[c] and they were weeping at the doorway of the tent of assembly.

4 The Lord said to Moses, “Take all the leaders(A) of these people, kill them and expose(B) them in broad daylight before the Lord,(C) so that the Lord’s fierce anger(D) may turn away from Israel.”
5 So Moses said to Israel’s judges, “Each of you must put to death(E) those of your people who have yoked themselves to the Baal of Peor.”(F)
6 Then an Israelite man brought into the camp a Midianite(G) woman right before the eyes of Moses and the whole assembly of Israel while they were weeping(H) at the entrance to the tent of meeting.
