We should not commit sexual immorality, as some of them did—and in one day twenty-three thousand of them died.

We must not indulge in sexual immorality as some of them did, and twenty-three thousand fell in a single day.

And we must not engage in sexual immorality as some of them did, causing 23,000 of them to die in one day.

Let us not commit sexual immorality  as some of them did,  and in a single day twenty-three thousand people died.

Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand.

Nor let us commit sexual immorality, as some of them did, and in one day twenty-three thousand fell

The same thing could happen to us. We must be on guard so that we never get caught up in wanting our own way as they did. And we must not turn our religion into a circus as they did—“First the people partied, then they threw a dance.” We must not be sexually promiscuous—they paid for that, remember, with 23,000 deaths in one day! We must never try to get Christ to serve us instead of us serving him; they tried it, and God launched an epidemic of poisonous snakes. We must be careful not to stir up discontent; discontent destroyed them.

Nor are we to commit sexual immorality, as some of them did, and twenty-three thousand fell in one day.

We must not indulge in [nor tolerate] sexual immorality, as some of them did, and twenty-three thousand [suddenly] fell [dead] in a single day! [Num 25:1-18]

And let us not be immoral, as some of them were, and twenty-three thousand died in a single day.
