47Even from the children of Israel's half, Moses took one out of every fifty, men and beasts, and gave them to the Levites who had the care of the House of the Lord; as the Lord gave orders to Moses.
48Then the men in authority over the thousands of the army, the captains of thousands and captains of hundreds, came to Moses,
49And said to him, Your servants have taken note of the number of all the fighting-men under our orders, and every one is present;
50And we have here an offering for the Lord from what every man took in the war, ornaments of gold, leg-chains and arm-rings, finger-rings, ear-rings, and neck-ornaments, to make our souls free from sin before the Lord.
51So Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold from them, even all the worked ornaments.
