Numbers 31:30-47
30And from the sons of Israel’s half, you shall take one drawn from every fifty of the persons, of the cattle, of the donkeys, and of the sheep, from all the animals; and give them to the Levites who 1perform the duty of the tabernacle of the Lord.” 31Moses and Eleazar the priest did just as the Lord had commanded Moses.
32Now the spoils that remained from the plunder which the 2men of war had plundered was 675,000 sheep, 33seventy-two thousand cattle, 34sixty-one thousand donkeys, 35and of captive people, of the women who had not known a 3man intimately, in all were thirty-two thousand people.
36The half, the share of those who went to war, was as follows: the number of sheep was 337,500, 37the Lord’s tribute tax of the sheep was 675; 38the cattle were thirty-six thousand, from which the Lord’s tribute tax was seventy-two; 39the donkeys were 30,500, from which the Lord’s tribute tax was sixty-one; 40and the captive people were sixteen thousand, from whom the Lord’s tribute tax was thirty-two persons. 41And Moses gave the tribute tax, which was the Lord’s offering, to Eleazar the priest, just 4as the Lord had commanded Moses.
42As for the sons of Israel’s half, which Moses 5separated from the men who had gone to war-- 43now the congregation’s half was 337,500 sheep, 44thirty-six thousand cattle, 4530,500 donkeys, 46and the captive people were sixteen thousand-- 47from the sons of Israel’s half Moses took one drawn from every fifty, both of people and of animals, and gave them to the Levites, who performed the duty of the tabernacle of the Lord, just as the Lord had commanded Moses.
