42 Of the children of Yisra'el's half, which Moshe divided off from the men who warred

44 and thirty-six thousand oxen,
44
and of the herd six and thirty thousand;
45 and thirty thousand five hundred donkeys,
45
and of asses thirty thousand and five hundred;

49 and they said to Moshe, Your servants have taken the sum of the men of war who are under our charge, and there lacks not one man of us.
49
and they say unto Moses, `Thy servants have taken up the sum of the men of war who [are] with us, and not a man of us hath been missed;
50 We have brought the LORD's offering, what every man has gotten, of jewels of gold, ankle-chains, and bracelets, signet-rings, ear-rings, and armlets, to make atonement for our souls before the LORD.
50
and we bring near Jehovah's offering, each that which he hath found, vessels of gold -- chain, and bracelet, seal-ring, [ear]-ring, and bead -- to make atonement for ourselves before Jehovah.'

51
And Moses receiveth -- Eleazar the priest also -- the gold from them, every made vessel,
52 All the gold of the heave-offering that they offered up to the LORD, of the captains of thousands, and of the captains of hundreds, was sixteen thousand seven hundred fifty shekels.
52
and all the gold of the heave-offering which they have lifted up to Jehovah is sixteen thousand seven hundred and fifty shekels, from heads of the thousands, and from heads of the hundreds;

(the men of the host have spoiled each for himself);
54 Moshe and El`azar the Kohen took the gold of the captains of thousands and of hundreds, and brought it into the tent of meeting, for a memorial for the children of Yisra'el before the LORD.
54
and Moses taketh -- Eleazar the priest also -- the gold from the heads of the thousands and of the hundreds, and they bring it in unto the tent of meeting -- a memorial for the sons of Israel before Jehovah.
