Numbers 31:48-54

48Then the officers who were over the thousands of the army, the commanders of thousands and hundreds, approached Moses,

49and they said to him, “Your servants have counted the warriors under our command, and not one man of us is missing.

50So we have brought as an offering to the Lord what each man obtained—articles of gold, armlets, bracelets, signet rings, earrings, necklaces—to make atonement for ourselves before the Lord.”

51Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold from them, all the handmade articles.

52All the gold of the offering which they presented to the Lord from the commanders of thousands and of hundreds was 16,750 shekels.

53For the men of war had taken plunder, every man for himself.

54So Moses and Eleazar the priest received the gold from the commanders of thousands and of hundreds, and brought it into the Tent of Meeting (tabernacle) as a memorial for the sons of Israel before the Lord.
