Numbers 31:21-31 Then Eleazar the priest, said to the men of the army, who came from the war, This is the ordinance of the law, which the Lord gave in charge to Moses,

Thomson⁽ⁱ⁾ ²¹ Then Eleazar the priest, said to the men of the army, who came from the war, This is the ordinance of the law, which the Lord gave in charge to Moses, ²² Besides the gold, and the silver, and the brass, and the iron, and the lead, and the tin, ²³ every thing which can pass through fire must be purified by fire; but the rest are to be purified by the water of purification only. Whatever cannot pass through fire must pass through water. ²⁴ And on the seventh day you must wash your clothes, and you shall be clean; and after that you may come into the camp. ²⁵ Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, ²⁶ Take the sum of the captivated prey both of man and beast; thou, and Eleazar the priest, and the chiefs of the patriarchal houses of the congregation. ²⁷ And you shall divide the prey between the warriors who went to battle, and the whole congregation. ²⁸ And you shall set apart as a tribute to the Lord, from the warriors who went out to battle, one in five hundred from the captives, and from the beasts, namely, the cattle, and the sheep, and the asses. ²⁹ These you shall take from their half, and give to Eleazar the priest, as a portion set apart for the Lord. ³⁰ And from the children of Israel's half thou shalt take one in fifty of the captives, and of the cattle, and the sheep, and the asses; of all these beasts. And these thou shalt give to the Levites, who keep the watch at the tabernacle of the Lord. ³¹ So Moses and Eleazar the priest did as the Lord commanded Moses.
