¹² So tell Phinehas that I am making my ·peace agreement [covenant/treaty of peace] with him. ¹³ He and his ·descendants [^Lseed] will ·always be priests [^Lhave a covenant/treaty of eternal/perpetual priesthood], because he had ·great concern for the honor of [^Lpassion/zeal for] his God. He ·removed the sins of the Israelites so they would belong to God [^Lprovided atonement for the sons/^Tchildren of Israel].”

¹⁴ The Israelite man who was ·killed [^Lstruck] with the Midianite woman was named Zimri son of Salu. He was the leader of a ·family [ancestral clan] in the tribe of Simeon.
