Numbers 31:21-31 Eleazar the priest said to the men of the militia host who had come into the battle:This is the statute of the law which Yahweh has instructed Moses.

CLV⁽ⁱ⁾ ²¹ Eleazar the priest said to the men of the militia host who had come into the battle:This is the statute of the law which Yahweh has instructed Moses. ²² Yea, the gold and the silver, the copper, the iron, the tin and the lead, ²³ everything which may come through fire you shall cause to pass through fire, and it will be clean. Nevertheless, by the water of impurity shall it purify itself from sin. And everything which may not come through fire you shall cause to pass through water. ²⁴ You will rinse your garments on the seventh day, and you will be clean. And thereafter you may come into the camp. ²⁵ Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying. ²⁶ Obtain the sum of the booty, of the captives among human and among beast, you and Eleazar the priest and the heads of the fathers of the congregation. ²⁷ And you will divide the booty between those handing the war, those going forth with the militia host, and the whole congregation. ²⁸ Raise up an assessment for Yahweh from the men of war, those going forth with the militia host:one soul out of five hundred from the human and from the beast, from the herd, from the donkeys and from the flock. ²⁹ From their half-share shall you take it, and you will give it to Eleazar the priest as a heave offering to Yahweh. ³⁰ And from the half-share of the sons of Israel you shall take one to be withheld out of fifty, from the human, from the herd, from the donkeys and from the flock, from every beast, and you will give them to the Levites, the ones keeping charge of Yahweh's tabernacle. ³¹ So Moses and Eleazar the priest did as Yahweh had instructed Moses.
