Chapter 31
And
the
Lord
spake
unto
Moses,
saying,
2
Avenge
the
children
of
Israel
of
the
Midianites:
afterward
shalt
thou
be
gathered
unto
thy
people.
3
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
Of
every
tribe
a
thousand,
throughout
all
the
tribes
of
Israel,
shall
ye
send
to
the
war.
5
So
there
were
delivered
out
of
the
thousands
of
Israel,
a
thousand
of
every
tribe,
twelve
thousand
armed
for
war.
6
And
Moses
sent
them
to
the
war,
a
thousand
of
every
tribe,
them
and
Phinehas
the
son
of
Eleazar
the
priest,
to
the
war,
with
the
holy
instruments,
and
the
trumpets
to
blow
in
his
hand.
7
And
they
warred
against
the
Midianites,
as
the
Lord
commanded
Moses;
and
they
slew
all
the
males.
8
And
they
slew
the
kings
of
Midian,
beside
the
rest
of
them
that
were
slain;
namely,
Evi,
and
Rekem,
and
Zur,
and
Hur,
and
Reba,
five
kings
of
Midian:
Balaam
also
the
son
of
Beor
they
slew
with
the
sword.
9
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
burnt
all
their
cities
wherein
they
dwelt,
and
all
their
goodly
castles,
with
fire.
11
And
they
took
all
the
spoil,
and
all
the
prey,
both
of
men
and
of
beasts.
12
And
they
brought
the
captives,
and
the
prey,
and
the
spoil,
unto
Moses,
and
Eleazar
the
priest,
and
unto
the
congregation
of
the
children
of
Israel,
unto
the
camp
at
the
plains
of
Moab,
which
are
by
Jordan
near
Jericho.
13
And
Moses,
and
Eleazar
the
priest,
and
all
the
princes
of
the
congregation,
went
forth
to
meet
them
without
the
camp.
14
And
Moses
was
wroth
with
the
officers
of
the
host,
with
the
captains
over
thousands,
and
captains
over
hundreds,
which
came
from
the
battle.
15
And
Moses
said
unto
them,
Have
ye
saved
all
the
women
alive?
16
Behold,
these
caused
the
children
of
Israel,
through
the
counsel
of
Balaam,
to
commit
trespass
against
the
Lord
in
the
matter
of
Peor,
and
there
was
a
plague
among
the
congregation
of
the
Lord.
17
Now
therefore
kill
every
male
among
the
little
ones,
and
kill
every
woman
that
hath
known
man
by
lying
with
him.
18
But
all
the
women
children,
that
have
not
known
a
man
by
lying
with
him,
keep
alive
for
yourselves.
19
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
purify
all
your
raiment,
and
all
that
is
made
of
skins,
and
all
work
of
goats’
hair,
and
all
things
made
of
wood.
21
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
Only
the
gold,
and
the
silver,
the
brass,
the
iron,
the
tin,
and
the
lead,
23
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
ye
shall
wash
your
clothes
on
the
seventh
day,
and
ye
shall
be
clean,
and
afterward
ye
shall
come
into
the
camp.
25
And
the
Lord
spake
unto
Moses,
saying,
26
Take
the
sum
of
the
prey
that
was
taken,
both
of
man
and
of
beast,
thou,
and
Eleazar
the
priest,
and
the
chief
fathers
of
the
congregation:
27
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
And
levy
a
tribute
unto
the
Lord
of
the
men
of
war
which
went
out
to
battle:
one
soul
of
five
hundred,
both
of
the
persons,
and
of
the
beeves,
and
of
the
asses,
and
of
the
sheep:
29
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.
31
And
Moses
and
Eleazar
the
priest
did
as
the
Lord
commanded
Moses.
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,
33
And
threescore
and
twelve
thousand
beeves,
34
And
threescore
and
one
thousand
asses,
35
And
thirty
and
two
thousand
persons
in
all,
of
women
that
had
not
known
man
by
lying
with
him.
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:
37
And
the
Lord’s
tribute
of
the
sheep
was
six
hundred
and
threescore
and
fifteen.
38
And
the
beeves
were
thirty
and
six
thousand;
of
which
the
Lord’s
tribute
was
threescore
and
twelve.
39
And
the
asses
were
thirty
thousand
and
five
hundred;
of
which
the
Lord’s
tribute
was
threescore
and
one.
40
And
the
persons
were
sixteen
thousand;
of
which
the
Lord’s
tribute
was
thirty
and
two
persons.
41
And
Moses
gave
the
tribute,
which
was
the
Lord’s
heave
offering,
unto
Eleazar
the
priest,
as
the
Lord
commanded
Moses.
42
And
of
the
children
of
Israel’s
half,
which
Moses
divided
from
the
men
that
warred,
43
(Now
the
half
that
pertained
unto
the
congregation
was
three
hundred
thousand
and
thirty
thousand
and
seven
thousand
and
five
hundred
sheep,
44
And
thirty
and
six
thousand
beeves,
45
And
thirty
thousand
asses
and
five
hundred,
46
And
sixteen
thousand
persons;)
47
Even
of
the
children
of
Israel’s
half,
Moses
took
one
portion
of
fifty,
both
of
man
and
of
beast,
and
gave
them
unto
the
Levites,
which
kept
the
charge
of
the
tabernacle
of
the
Lord;
as
the
Lord
commanded
Moses.
48
And
the
officers
which
were
over
thousands
of
the
host,
the
captains
of
thousands,
and
captains
of
hundreds,
came
near
unto
Moses:
49
And
they
said
unto
Moses,
Thy
servants
have
taken
the
sum
of
the
men
of
war
which
are
under
our
charge,
and
there
lacketh
not
one
man
of
us.
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.
51
And
Moses
and
Eleazar
the
priest
took
the
gold
of
them,
even
all
wrought
jewels.
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.
53
(For
the
men
of
war
had
taken
spoil,
every
man
for
himself.)
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.
