48 ¶ Then the captains which were over thousands of the host, the captains over the thousands, and the captains over the hundreds came unto Moses:

49 And said to Moses, Thy servants have taken the sum of the men of war which are under [a]our authority, and there lacketh not one man of us.

50 [b]We have therefore brought a present unto the Lord, what every man found of Jewels of gold, bracelets, and chains, rings, earrings, and ornaments of the legs, to make an atonement for our souls before the Lord.

51 And Moses and Eleazar the Priest took the gold of them, and all wrought jewels,

52 And all the gold of the offering that they offered up to the Lord (of the captains over thousands and hundreds) was sixteen thousand seven hundred and fifty shekels.

53 (For the men of war had spoiled, every man for [c]himself.)

54 And Moses and Eleazar the Priest took the gold of the captains over the thousands, and over the hundreds, and brought it into the Tabernacle of the Congregation, for a [d]memorial of the children of Israel before the Lord.
