04:031:031 And Moses and Eleazar the priest did as the LORD commanded
Moses.
04:031:032 And the booty, being the rest of the prey which the men of war
had caught, was six hundred thousand and seventy thousand and
five thousand sheep,
04:031:033 And threescore and twelve thousand beeves,
04:031:034 And threescore and one thousand asses,
04:031:035 And thirty and two thousand persons in all, of women that had
not known man by lying with him.
04:031:036 And the half, which was the portion of them that went out to
war, was in number three hundred thousand and seven and thirty
thousand and five hundred sheep:
04:031:037 And the LORD's tribute of the sheep was six hundred and
threescore and fifteen.
04:031:038 And the beeves were thirty and six thousand; of which the
LORD's tribute was threescore and twelve.
04:031:039 And the asses were thirty thousand and five hundred; of which
the LORD's tribute was threescore and one.
04:031:040 And the persons were sixteen thousand; of which the LORD's
tribute was thirty and two persons.
04:031:041 And Moses gave the tribute, which was the LORD's heave
offering, unto Eleazar the priest, as the LORD commanded
Moses.
04:031:042 And of the children of Israel's half, which Moses divided from
the men that warred,
04:031:043 (Now the half that pertained unto the congregation was three
hundred thousand and thirty thousand and seven thousand and
five hundred sheep,
04:031:044 And thirty and six thousand beeves,
04:031:045 And thirty thousand asses and five hundred,
04:031:046 And sixteen thousand persons;)
04:031:047 Even of the children of Israel's half, Moses took one portion
of fifty, both of man and of beast, and gave them unto the
Levites, which kept the charge of the tabernacle of the LORD;
as the LORD commanded Moses.
04:031:048 And the officers which were over thousands of the host, the
captains of thousands, and captains of hundreds, came near
unto Moses:
04:031:049 And they said unto Moses, Thy servants have taken the sum of
the men of war which are under our charge, and there lacketh
not one man of us.
04:031:050 We have therefore brought an oblation for the LORD, what every
man hath gotten, of jewels of gold, chains, and bracelets,
rings, earrings, and tablets, to make an atonement for our
souls before the LORD.
04:031:051 And Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold of them, even
all wrought jewels.
04:031:052 And all the gold of the offering that they offered up to the
LORD, of the captains of thousands, and of the captains of
hundreds, was sixteen thousand seven hundred and fifty
shekels.
04:031:053 (For the men of war had taken spoil, every man for himself.)
