Exodus 32:26-28

Jubilee Bible 2000

²⁶ Then Moses stood in the gate of the camp and said, Who is on the LORD’s side? Come unto me. And all the sons of Levi gathered themselves together unto him.

²⁷ And he said unto them, Thus hath the LORD God of Israel said, Put every man his sword by his side and go in and out from gate to gate throughout the camp and slay each one his brother and his companion and his neighbour.

²⁸ And the sons of Levi did according to the word of Moses, and there fell of the people that day about three thousand men.
