26 “You and Eleazar, together with the other leaders of the community, are to count everything that has been captured, including the prisoners and the animals.
27 Divide what was taken into two equal parts, one part for the soldiers and the other part for the rest of the community.
28 From the part that belongs to the soldiers, withhold as a tax for the Lord one out of every 500 prisoners and the same proportion of the cattle, donkeys, sheep, and goats.
29 Give them to Eleazar the priest as a special contribution to the Lord.
30 From the part given to the rest of the people, take one out of every fifty prisoners and the same proportion of the cattle, donkeys, sheep, and goats. Give them to the Levites who are in charge of the Lord's Tent.”
31 Moses and Eleazar did what the Lord commanded.
32-35 The following is a list of what was captured by the soldiers, in addition to what they kept for themselves: 675,000 sheep and goats, 72,000 cattle, 61,000 donkeys, and 32,000 virgins.
