26 Fais, avec le sacrificateur Éléazar et les chefs de maison de l’assemblée, le compte du butin, de ce qui a été pris, personnes et bestiaux.

27 Partage le butin entre les combattants qui sont allés à l’armée et toute l’assemblée.

28 Tu prélèveras sur la portion des soldats qui sont allés à l’armée un tribut pour l’Éternel, savoir: un sur cinq cents, tant des personnes que des bœufs, des ânes et des brebis.

29 Vous le prendrez sur leur moitié, et tu le donneras au sacrificateur Éléazar comme une offrande à l’Éternel.

30 Et sur la moitié qui revient aux enfants d’Israël tu prendras un sur cinquante, tant des personnes que des bœufs, des ânes et des brebis, de tout animal; et tu le donneras aux Lévites, qui ont la garde du tabernacle de l’Éternel.
