Numbers 31:32
30 From the Israelites’ half, take one out of every fifty, whether persons, cattle, donkeys, sheep, or other animals, and give them to the Levites who keep charge of the tabernacle of the LORD.”
31 So Moses and Eleazar the priest did as the LORD had commanded Moses,
and this plunder remained from the spoils the soldiers had taken: 675,000 sheep,
33 72,000 cattle,
34 61,000 donkeys,
