Numbers 3:46-51

46To redeem the 273 firstborn of Bnei-Yisrael exceeding the number of the Levites,

47you are to collect five shekels for each, based on the shekel of the Sanctuary, which is 20 gerahs.

48Give the money for the redemption of the extra ones of the firstborn of them to Aaron and his sons.”

49Hence Moses collected the redemption money for those exceeding the number redeemed by the Levites.

50From the firstborn of Bnei-Yisrael he collected silver weighing 1,365 shekels, according to the Sanctuary shekel.

51Moses gave the redemption money to Aaron and his sons, just as Adonai commanded him, in accordance with the mouth of Adonai.
