28
And levy a tribute for the Lord on the men of war who went out to battle: one of every five hundred of the persons, the cattle, the donkeys, and the sheep;
29
take it from their half, and give it to Eleazar the priest as a heave offering to the Lord.
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.
