Numbers 25:12
Wherefore say, Behold, I give unto him my covenant of peace: (Numbers 25:12)
My covenant of peace.
 Literally, “my covenant, peace” (Isa. 54:10; Eze. 34:25; 37:26; Mal. 2:5). Undoubtedly this promise of peace included divine protection for Phinehas from the avenging wrath of the kinsmen of Zimri (see v. 14). Peace comes with a proper standing with God.
