Numbers 31:28–47

²⁸Set aside a tribute for the LORD from what belongs to the soldiers who went into battle: one out of every five hundred, whether persons, cattle, donkeys, or sheep. ²⁹Take it from their half and give it to Eleazar the priest as an offering to the LORD.

³⁰From the Israelites’ half, take one out of every fifty, whether persons, cattle, donkeys, sheep, or other animals, and give them to the Levites who keep charge of the tabernacle of the LORD.”

³¹So Moses and Eleazar the priest did as the LORD had commanded Moses, ³²and this plunder remained from the spoils the soldiers had taken:

675,000 sheep,

³³72,000 cattle,

³⁴61,000 donkeys,

³⁵and 32,000 women who had not slept with a man.

³⁶This was the half portion for those who had gone to war:

337,500 sheep, ³⁷including a tribute to the LORD of 675,

³⁸36,000 cattle, including a tribute to the LORD of 72,

³⁹30,500 donkeys, including a tribute to the LORD of 61,

⁴⁰and 16,000 people, including a tribute to the LORD of 32.

⁴¹Moses gave the tribute to Eleazar the priest as an offering for the LORD, as the LORD had commanded Moses.

⁴²From the Israelites’ half, which Moses had set apart from the men who had gone to war, ⁴³this half belonged to the congregation:

337,500 sheep,

⁴⁴36,000 cattle,

⁴⁵30,500 donkeys,

⁴⁶and 16,000 people.

⁴⁷From the Israelites’ half, Moses took one out of every fifty persons and animals and gave them to the Levites who kept charge of the tabernacle of the LORD, as the LORD had commanded him.
