Numbers 31:40

King James Version (1769) with Strongs Numbers and Morphology
And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
2
And Moses spake unto the people, saying, Arm some of yourselves unto the war, and let them go against the Midianites, and avenge the Lord of Midian.
4
So there were delivered out of the thousands of Israel, a thousand of every tribe, twelve thousand armed for war.
6
And they warred against the Midianites, as the Lord commanded Moses; and they slew all the males.
8
And the children of Israel took all the women of Midian captives, and their little ones, and took the spoil of all their cattle, and all their flocks, and all their goods.
10
And they took all the spoil, and all the prey, both of men and of beasts.
12
And Moses, and Eleazar the priest, and all the princes of the congregation, went forth to meet them without the camp.
14
And Moses said unto them, Have ye saved all the women alive?
16
Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him.
18
And do ye abide without the camp seven days: whosoever hath killed any person, and whosoever hath touched any slain, purify both yourselves and your captives on the third day, and on the seventh day.
20
And Eleazar the priest said unto the men of war which went to the battle, This is the ordinance of the law which the Lord commanded Moses;
22
Every thing that may abide the fire, ye shall make it go through the fire, and it shall be clean: nevertheless it shall be purified with the water of separation: and all that abideth not the fire ye shall make go through the water.
24
And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
26
And divide the prey into two parts; between them that took the war upon them, who went out to battle, and between all the congregation:
28
Take it of their half, and give it unto Eleazar the priest, for an heave offering of the Lord.
30
And of the children of Israel’s half, thou shalt take one portion of fifty, of the persons, of the beeves, of the asses, and of the flocks, of all manner of beasts, and give them unto the Levites, which keep the charge of the tabernacle of the Lord.
32
And the booty, being the rest of the prey which the men of war had caught, was six hundred thousand and seventy thousand and five thousand sheep,
34
And threescore and one thousand asses,
36
And the half, which was the portion of them that went out to war, was in number three hundred thousand and seven and thirty thousand and five hundred sheep:
38
And the beeves were thirty and six thousand; of which the Lord’s tribute was threescore and twelve.
40
And the persons were sixteen thousand; of which the Lord’s tribute was thirty and two persons..
42
And of the children of Israel’s half, which Moses divided from the men that warred,
44
And thirty and six thousand beeves,
46
And sixteen thousand persons;)
48
And the officers which were over thousands of the host, the captains of thousands, and captains of hundreds, came near unto Moses:
50
We have therefore brought an oblation for the Lord, what every man hath gotten, of jewels of gold, chains, and bracelets, rings, earrings, and tablets, to make an atonement for our souls before the Lord.
52
And all the gold of the offering that they offered up to the Lord, of the captains of thousands, and of the captains of hundreds, was sixteen thousand seven hundred and fifty shekels.
54
And Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold of the captains of thousands and of hundreds, and brought it into the tabernacle of the congregation, for a memorial for the children of Israel before the Lord.
