19. And encamp outside the camp seven days; whoever hath killed a person, and whoever hath touched any slain; ye shall purify yourselves on the third day, and on the seventh day, you and your captives.
20. And every garment, and every vessel of skin, and all work of goat's hair, and every utensil of wood shall ye purify.
21. And Eleazar the priest said to the men of war that had gone to the battle, This is the statute of the law which Jehovah hath commanded Moses.
22. Only the gold, and the silver, the copper, the iron, the tin, and the lead,
23. everything that passeth through the fire, ye shall make it go through the fire, and it shall be clean; only it shall be purified with the water of separation; and everything that cannot pass through the fire ye shall make go through the water.
24. And ye shall wash your garments on the seventh day, and ye shall be clean; and afterwards ye may come into the camp.
25. And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
26. Take the sum of the prey that was taken, of man and of cattle, thou, and Eleazar the priest, and the chief fathers of the assembly;
27. and divide the prey into halves, between them that conducted the war, who went out to the battle, and the whole assembly.
28. And thou shalt levy a tribute for Jehovah of the men of war who went out to the army, one soul of five hundred of the persons, and of the oxen, and of the asses, and of the small cattle.
29. Of their half shall ye take it, and give it unto Eleazar the priest, for a heave-offering of Jehovah.
