30
And from the children of Israel's half you shall take one of every fifty, drawn from the persons, the cattle, the donkeys, and the sheep, from all the livestock, and give them to the Levites who keep charge of the tabernacle of the Lord."
31
So Moses and Eleazar the priest did as the Lord commanded Moses.
32
The booty remaining from the plunder, which the men of war had taken, was six hundred and seventy-five thousand sheep,
33
seventy-two thousand cattle,
34
sixty-one thousand donkeys,
35
and thirty-two thousand persons in all, of women who had not known a man intimately.
36
And the half, the portion for those who had gone out to war, was in number three hundred and thirty-seven thousand five hundred sheep;
37
and the Lord's tribute of the sheep was six hundred and seventy-five.
38
The cattle were thirty-six thousand, of which the Lord's tribute was seventy-two.
39
The donkeys were thirty thousand five hundred, of which the Lord's tribute was sixty-one.
40
The persons were sixteen thousand, of which the Lord's tribute was thirty-two persons.
41
So Moses gave the tribute which was the Lord's heave offering to Eleazar the priest, as the Lord commanded Moses.
42
And from the children of Israel's half, which Moses separated from the men who fought--
43
now the half belonging to the congregation was three hundred and thirty-seven thousand five hundred sheep,
44
thirty-six thousand cattle,
45
thirty thousand five hundred donkeys,
46
and sixteen thousand persons--
47
and from the children of Israel's half Moses took one of every fifty, drawn from man and beast, and gave them to the Levites, who kept charge of the tabernacle of the Lord, as the Lord commanded Moses.
48
Then the officers who were over thousands of the army, the captains of thousands and captains of hundreds, came near to Moses;
49
and they said to Moses, "Your servants have taken a count of the men of war who are under our command, and not a man of us is missing.
50
Therefore we have brought an offering for the Lord, what every man found of ornaments of gold: armlets and bracelets and signet rings and earrings and necklaces, to make atonement for ourselves before the Lord."
51
So Moses and Eleazar the priest received the gold from them, all the fashioned ornaments.
52
And all the gold of the offering that they offered to the Lord, from the captains of thousands and captains of hundreds, was sixteen thousand seven hundred and fifty shekels.
53
(The men of war had taken spoil, every man for himself.)
54
And Moses and Eleazar the priest received the gold from the captains of thousands and of hundreds, and brought it into the tabernacle of meeting as a memorial for the children of Israel before the Lord.
