Numbers 31:30-47

30From the Israelites’ half, select one out of every fifty, whether people, cattle, donkeys, sheep or other animals. Give them to the Levites, who are responsible for the care of the Lord’s tabernacle.” 31So Moses and Eleazar the priest did as the Lord commanded Moses. 32The plunder remaining from the spoils that the soldiers took was 675,000 sheep, 3372,000 cattle, 3461,000 donkeys 35and 32,000 women who had never slept with a man. 36The half share of those who fought in the battle was: 337,500 sheep, 37of which the tribute for the Lord was 675; 3836,000 cattle, of which the tribute for the Lord was 72; 3930,500 donkeys, of which the tribute for the Lord was 61; 4016,000 people, of whom the tribute for the Lord was 32. 41Moses gave the tribute to Eleazar the priest as the Lord’s part, as the Lord commanded Moses. 42The half belonging to the Israelites, which Moses set apart from that of the fighting men— 43the community’s half—was 337,500 sheep, 4436,000 cattle, 4530,500 donkeys 46and 16,000 people. 47From the Israelites’ half, Moses selected one out of every fifty people and animals, as the Lord commanded him, and gave them to the Levites, who were responsible for the care of the Lord’s tabernacle.
