You shall send one thousand out of every tribe, throughout all the tribes of Israel, to the war.”

WEB

So there were delivered, out of the thousands of Israel, a thousand from every tribe, twelve thousand armed for war.

WEB

Moses sent them, one thousand of every tribe, to the war with Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest, to the war, with the vessels of the sanctuary and the trumpets for the alarm in his hand.

They fought against Midian, as the LORD commanded Moses. They killed every male.

They killed the kings of Midian with the rest of their slain: Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba, the five kings of Midian. They also killed Balaam the son of Beor with the sword.

The children of Israel took the women of Midian captive with their little ones; and all their livestock, all their flocks, and all their goods, they took as plunder.

All their cities in the places in which they lived, and all their encampments, they burned with fire.

They took all the captives, and all the plunder, both of man and of animal.

WEB

They brought the captives with the prey and the plunder, to Moses, and to Eleazar the priest, and to the congregation of the children of Israel, to the camp at the plains of Moab, which are by the Jordan at Jericho.

WEB

Moses and Eleazar the priest, with all the princes of the congregation, went out to meet them outside of the camp.

WEB

Moses was angry with the officers of the army, the captains of thousands and the captains of hundreds, who came from the service of the war.

WEB

Moses said to them, “Have you saved all the women alive?

WEB

Behold, these caused the children of Israel, through the counsel of Balaam, to commit trespass against the LORD in the matter of Peor, and so the plague was among the congregation of the LORD.

Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman who has known man by lying with him.

But all the girls, who have not known man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves.

“Encamp outside of the camp for seven days. Whoever has killed any person, and whoever has touched any slain, purify yourselves on the third day and on the seventh day, you and your captives.

WEB

You shall purify every garment, and all that is made of skin, and all work of goats’ hair, and all things made of wood.”

Eleazar the priest said to the men of war who went to the battle, “This is the statute of the law which the LORD has commanded Moses.

WEB

However the gold, and the silver, the bronze, the iron, the tin, and the lead,

WEB

everything that may withstand the fire, you shall make to go through the fire, and it shall be clean; nevertheless it shall be purified with the water for impurity. All that doesn’t withstand the fire you shall make to go through the water.

WEB

You shall wash your clothes on the seventh day, and you shall be clean. Afterward you shall come into the camp.”

The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

WEB

“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;

WEB

and divide the plunder into two parts: between the men skilled in war, who went out to battle, and all the congregation.

WEB

Levy 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.

Take it from their half, and give it to Eleazar the priest, for the LORD’s wave offering.

WEB

Of 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.”

Moses and Eleazar the priest did as the LORD commanded Moses.

Now the plunder, over and above the booty which the men of war took, was six hundred seventy-five thousand sheep,

seventy-two thousand head of cattle,

WEB

sixty-one thousand donkeys,

WEB

and thirty-two thousand persons in all, of the women who had not known man by lying with him.

WEB

(now the congregation’s half was three hundred thirty-seven thousand five hundred sheep,

WEB

thirty-six thousand head of cattle,

WEB

thirty thousand five hundred donkeys,

WEB

and sixteen thousand persons),

WEB

even 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.

WEB

The officers who were over the thousands of the army, the captains of thousands, and the captains of hundreds, came near to Moses.

WEB

They said to Moses, “Your servants have taken the sum of the men of war who are under our command, and there lacks not one man of us.

WEB

We have brought the LORD’s offering, what every man found: gold ornaments, armlets, bracelets, signet rings, earrings, and necklaces, to make atonement for our souls before the LORD.”
