Numbers:31:14-18

*
And Moses was wroth with the officers of the host ,
with the captains over thousands ,
and captains over hundreds ,
which came from the battle .
*
And Moses said unto them ,
Have ye saved all the women alive ?
*
Behold ,
these caused the children of Israel ,
through the counsel of Balaam ,
to commit trespass against the LORD in the matter of Peor ,
and there was a plague among the congregation of the LORD .
*
Now therefore kill every male among the little ones ,
and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him .
*
But all the women children ,
that have not known a man by lying with him ,
keep alive for yourselves .
