The plunder counted and divided, and the LORD’s tribute taken

탈취물을 계수하여 반분하고 여호와께 세를 드림

Numbers 31:25–47: the LORD tells Moses, with Eleazar the priest and the heads of the fathers’ houses, to count the plunder of man and animal and divide it in two, between the men who went to war and the congregation; from the soldiers’ half one in five hundred is to go to Eleazar for the LORD, and from the children of Israel’s half one in fifty to the Levites who keep the LORD’s tabernacle. The plunder is 675,000 sheep, 72,000 cattle, 61,000 donkeys and 32,000 women who had not known a man; the LORD’s tribute from the soldiers’ half is 675 sheep, 72 cattle, 61 donkeys and 32 persons. Moses and Eleazar do as the LORD commanded: Moses gives the tribute to Eleazar, and one in fifty from the congregation’s half to the Levites.

NUM 31:25–47, engwebp
²⁵The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
²⁶“Count the plunder that was taken, both of man and of animal, you, and Eleazar the priest, and the heads of the fathers’ households of the congregation;
²⁷and divide the plunder into two parts: between the men skilled in war, who went out to battle, and all the congregation.
²⁸Levy a tribute to the LORD of the men of war who went out to battle: one soul of five hundred; of the persons, of the cattle, of the donkeys, and of the flocks.
²⁹Take it from their half, and give it to Eleazar the priest, for the LORD’s wave offering.
³⁰Of the children of Israel’s half, you shall take one drawn out of every fifty, of the persons, of the cattle, of the donkeys, and of the flocks, of all the livestock, and give them to the Levites, who perform the duty of the LORD’s tabernacle.”
³¹Moses and Eleazar the priest did as the LORD commanded Moses.
³²Now the plunder, over and above the booty which the men of war took, was six hundred seventy-five thousand sheep,
³³seventy-two thousand head of cattle,
³⁴sixty-one thousand donkeys,
³⁵and thirty-two thousand persons in all, of the women who had not known man by lying with him.
³⁶The half, which was the portion of those who went out to war, was in number three hundred thirty-seven thousand five hundred sheep;
³⁷and the LORD’s tribute of the sheep was six hundred seventy-five.
³⁸The cattle were thirty-six thousand, of which the LORD’s tribute was seventy-two.
³⁹The donkeys were thirty thousand five hundred, of which the LORD’s tribute was sixty-one.
⁴⁰The persons were sixteen thousand, of whom the LORD’s tribute was thirty-two persons.
⁴¹Moses gave the tribute, which was the LORD’s wave offering, to Eleazar the priest, as the LORD commanded Moses.
⁴²Of the children of Israel’s half, which Moses divided off from the men who fought
⁴³(now the congregation’s half was three hundred thirty-seven thousand five hundred sheep,
⁴⁴thirty-six thousand head of cattle,
⁴⁵thirty thousand five hundred donkeys,
⁴⁶and sixteen thousand persons),
⁴⁷even of the children of Israel’s half, Moses took one drawn out of every fifty, both of man and of animal, and gave them to the Levites, who performed the duty of the LORD’s tabernacle, as the LORD commanded Moses.
