20. You shall purify for yourselves every garment and every article of leather and all the work of goats' hair, and all articles of wood."
21. Then Eleazar the priest said to the men of war who had gone to battle, "This is the statute of the law which the Lord has commanded Moses:
22. only the gold and the silver, the bronze, the iron, the tin and the lead,
23. everything that can stand the fire, you shall pass through the fire, and it shall be clean, but it shall be purified with water for impurity. But whatever cannot stand the fire you shall pass through the water.
24. And you shall wash your clothes on the seventh day and be clean, and afterward you may enter the camp."
25. Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
26. "You and Eleazar the priest and the heads of the fathers' households of the congregation take a count of the booty that was captured, both of man and of animal;
27. and divide the booty between the warriors who went out to battle and all the congregation.
28. Levy a tax for the Lord from the men of war who went out to battle, one in five hundred of the persons and of the cattle 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.
30. From the sons 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 sheep, from all the animals, and give them to the Levites who keep charge of the tabernacle of the Lord."
