Numbers 31:49-54

49and they said to Moses, “Your servants have taken a census of the men of war who are 1under our authority, and no man of us is missing.

50So we have brought as an offering to the Lord what each man found, articles of gold, armlets and bracelets, signet rings, earrings, and necklaces, 2to make atonement for ourselves before the Lord.”

51Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold from them, all kinds of crafted articles.

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

533The men of war had taken plunder, every man for himself.

54So Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold from the commanders of thousands and of hundreds, and brought it to the tent of meeting as 4a memorial for the sons of Israel before the Lord.
