Numbers 31:25-47

25And the Lord said to Moses,

26“You and Eleazar the priest and the family leaders of each tribe are to make a list of all the plunder taken in the battle, including the people and animals.

27Then divide the plunder into two parts, and give half to the men who fought the battle and half to the rest of the people.

28From the army’s portion, first give the Lord his share of the plunder—one of every 500 of the prisoners and of the cattle, donkeys, sheep, and goats.

29Give this share of the army’s half to Eleazar the priest as an offering to the Lord.

30From the half that belongs to the people of Israel, take one of every fifty of the prisoners and of the cattle, donkeys, sheep, goats, and other animals. Give this share to the Levites, who are in charge of maintaining the Lord’s Tabernacle.”

31So Moses and Eleazar the priest did as the Lord commanded Moses.

32The plunder remaining from everything the fighting men had taken totaled 675,000 sheep and goats,

3372,000 cattle,

3461,000 donkeys,

35and 32,000 virgin girls.

36Half of the plunder was given to the fighting men. It totaled 337,500 sheep and goats,

37of which 675 were the Lord’s share;

3836,000 cattle, of which 72 were the Lord’s share;

3930,500 donkeys, of which 61 were the Lord’s share;

40and 16,000 virgin girls, of whom 32 were the Lord’s share.

41Moses gave all the Lord’s share to Eleazar the priest, just as the Lord had directed him.

42Half of the plunder belonged to the people of Israel, and Moses separated it from the half belonging to the fighting men.

43It totaled 337,500 sheep and goats,

4436,000 cattle,

4530,500 donkeys,

46and 16,000 virgin girls.

47From the half-share given to the people, Moses took one of every fifty prisoners and animals and gave them to the Levites, who maintained the Lord’s Tabernacle. All this was done as the Lord had commanded Moses.
