26. “You, Eleazar the priest, and the leaders of the family groups should take a count of the goods, the men, and the animals that were taken.
27. Then divide those possessions between the soldiers who went to war and the rest of the people.
28. From the soldiers who went to war, take a tax for the Lord of one item out of every five hundred. This includes people, cattle, donkeys, or sheep.
29. Take it from the soldiers’ half, and give it to Eleazar the priest as the Lord’s share.
30. And from the people’s half, take one item out of every fifty. This includes people, cattle, donkeys, sheep, or other animals. Give that to the Levites, who take care of the Lord’s Holy Tent.”
31. So Moses and Eleazar did as the Lord commanded Moses.
32. There remained from what the soldiers had taken 675,000 sheep,
33. 72,000 cattle,
34. 61,000 donkeys,
35. and 32,000 women who had not had sexual relations with a man.
36. The soldiers who went to war got 337,000 sheep,
37. and they gave 675 of them to the Lord.
38. They got 36,000 cattle, and they gave 72 of them to the Lord.
