Numbers 31:26-54

"Take the sum of the prey that was taken, both of the women and of cattle: thou, and Eleazar the priest, and the ancient heads of the congregation. And divide it into two parts, between them that took the war upon them and went out to battle and all the congregation. And take a portion unto the LORD of the men of war which went out to battle, one of five hundred of the women and of the oxen and of the asses and of the sheep;read more.
and ye shall take it of their half and give it unto Eleazar the priest, a heave offering unto the LORD. And of the half of the children of Israel, take one of fifty of the women, of the oxen, of the asses and of the sheep, and of all manner of beasts, and give them unto the Levites which wait upon the habitation of the LORD." And Moses and Eleazar the priest did as the LORD commanded Moses. And the booty, and the prey which the men of war had caught, was six hundred thousand and seventy five thousand sheep; and seventy two thousand oxen; and sixty one thousand asses; and thirty two thousand women that had lain by no man. And the half which was the part of them that went out to war was: three hundred thousand and thirty seven thousand and five hundred sheep, and the LORD's part of the sheep was six hundred and seventy five. And the oxen were thirty six thousand, of which the LORD's part was seventy two. And the asses were thirty thousand and five hundred, of which the LORD's part was sixty one. And the women were sixteen thousand, of which the LORD's part was thirty two souls. And Moses gave that sum which was the LORD's heave offering unto Eleazar the priest: as the LORD commanded Moses. And the other half of the children of Israel which Moses separated from the men of war - that is, to wit, the half that pertained unto the congregation - was three hundred thousand and thirty seven thousand and five hundred sheep; and thirty six thousand oxen; and thirty thousand asses and five hundred; and sixteen thousand women. And Moses took of this half that pertained unto the children of Israel: one of every fifty, both of the women and of the cattle, and gave them unto the Levites which waited upon the habitation of the LORD, as the LORD commanded Moses. And the officers of thousands of the host, the captains over the thousands and the captains over the hundreds came forth and said unto Moses, "Thy servants have taken the sum of the men of war, which were under our hand, and there lacked not one man of them. We have therefore brought a present unto the LORD: what every man found of jewels of gold: chains, bracelets, rings, earrings and spangles, to make an atonement for our souls before the LORD." And Moses and Eleazar took the gold of them: jewels of all manner fashions. And all the gold of the heave offering of the LORD, of the captains over thousands and hundreds, was sixteen thousand seven hundred and fifty sicles, which the men of war had spoiled, every man for himself. And Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold of the captains over the thousands and over the hundreds, and brought it into the tabernacle of witness: to be a memorial unto the children of Israel, before the LORD.
