rsv@Numbers:31:26 @ "Take the count of the booty that was taken, both of man and of beast, you and Elea'zar the priest and the heads of the fathers' houses of the congregation;
rsv@Numbers:31:27 @ and divide the booty into two parts, between the warriors who went out to battle and all the congregation.
rsv@Numbers:31:28 @ And levy for the LORD a tribute from the men of war who went out to battle, one out of five hundred, of the persons and of the oxen and of the asses and of the flocks;
rsv@Numbers:31:29 @ take it from their half, and give it to Elea'zar the priest as an offering to the LORD.
rsv@Numbers:31:30 @ And from the people of Israel's half you shall take one drawn out of every fifty, of the persons, of the oxen, of the asses, and of the flocks, of all the cattle, and give them to the Levites who have charge of the tabernacle of the LORD."
rsv@Numbers:31:31 @ And Moses and Elea'zar the priest did as the LORD commanded Moses.

rsv@Numbers:31:33 @ seventy-two thousand cattle,
rsv@Numbers:31:34 @ sixty-one thousand asses,
rsv@Numbers:31:35 @ and thirty-two thousand persons in all, women who had not known man by lying with him.
rsv@Numbers:31:36 @ And the half, the portion of those who had gone out to war, was in number three hundred and thirty-seven thousand five hundred sheep,
rsv@Numbers:31:37 @ and the LORD's tribute of sheep was six hundred and seventy-five.

rsv@Numbers:31:44 @ thirty-six thousand cattle,
rsv@Numbers:31:45 @ and thirty thousand five hundred asses,
rsv@Numbers:31:46 @ and sixteen thousand persons--
rsv@Numbers:31:47 @ from the people of Israel's half Moses took one of every fifty, both of persons and of beasts, and gave them to the Levites who had charge of the tabernacle of the LORD; as the LORD commanded Moses.
