Numbers 31:23-29 Modern English Version (MEV)

23. everything that can go through the fire, you will make it go through the fire, and it will be clean, but some of it will be purified with the water of purification, and all that cannot pass through the fire you will make go through the water.

24. You will wash your clothes on the seventh day, and you will be clean, and afterward you will come into the camp.”

25. The Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

26. “Take the count of the plunder that was taken, of man and of beast, you and Eleazar the priest, and the chief of the fathers of the assembly.

27. And divide the prey into two parts between those that took the war on themselves, who went out to battle, and between all the assembly.

28. And levy a tribute to the Lord from the fighting men of Israel who went out to battle: one person out of five hundred, of the people and of the oxen, and of the donkeys, and of the sheep;

29. take it from their half, and give it to Eleazar the priest as an offering to the Lord.
