And he went after the man of Israel into the tent, and thrust both of them through, the man of Israel, and the woman through her belly. So the plague was stayed from the children of Israel.

Verse 8 is found in chapter 25 of Numbers. Israel participates in cultic prostitution and the worship of Baal of Peor, provoking God’s anger. A plague begins and ends when Phinehas acts against a couple publicly representing the transgression. The episode demonstrates the seriousness of idolatry and the mixture of pagan worship with communal life. The crisis is not merely individual morality: it threatens the religious identity of all Israel.

und ging dem israelitischen Mann nach hinein in die Kammer und durchstach sie beide, den israelitischen Mann und das Weib, durch ihren Bauch. Da hörte die Plage auf von den Kindern Israel.
Y fue tras el varón de Israel a la tienda, y alanceolos a ambos, al varón de Israel, y a la mujer por su vientre. Y cesó la mortandad de los hijos de Israel.
Il suivit l'homme d'Israël dans sa tente, et il les perça tous les deux, l'homme d'Israël, puis la femme, par le bas-ventre. Et la plaie s'arrêta parmi les enfants d'Israël.
Ed entrò dietro a quell’uomo Israelita, dentro al lupanare, e li trafisse amendue, l’uomo Israelita, e la donna, per lo ventre d’essa. E la piaga fu arrestata d’in su i figliuoli d’Israele.
E foi após o homem israelita até à tenda, e os atravessou a ambos, ao homem israelita e à mulher, pelo ventre; então a praga cessou de sobre os filhos de Israel.
跟這 以色列 人進入帳棚,刺穿了二人,就是 以色列 人和那女子的肚腹。這樣, 以色列 人遭受的瘟疫就停止了。
