Gold, and silver, and brass, and iron, and lead, and tin, 31:23. And all that may pass through the fire, shall be purified by fire, but whatsoever cannot abide the fire, shall be sanctified with the water of expiation: 31:24. And you shall wash your garments the seventh day, and being purified, you shall afterwards enter into the camp. 31:25. And the Lord said to Moses: 31:26. Take the sum of the things that were taken both of man and beast, thou and Eleazar the priest and the princes of the multitude: 31:27. And thou shalt divide the spoil equally, between them that fought and went out to the war, and between the rest of the multitude. 31:28. And thou shalt separate a portion to the Lord from them that fought and were in the battle, one soul of five hundred as well of persons as of oxen and asses and sheep. 31:29. And thou shalt give it to Eleazar the priest, because they are the firstfruits of the Lord. 31:30. Out of the moiety also of the children of Israel thou shalt take the fiftieth head of persons, and of oxen, and asses, and sheep, and of all beasts, and thou shalt give them to the Levites that watch in the charge of the tabernacle of the Lord. 31:31.
