Números 31 - Bíblia Online

And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying, 
Avenge the children of Israel upon the Midianites; afterwards shalt thou be gathered unto thy peoples. 
And Moses spoke to the people, saying, Arm from amongst you men for military service, that they go against Midian to execute Jehovah's vengeance upon Midian. 
Of every tribe a thousand, of all the tribes of Israel, shall ye send to the war. 
And there were levied out of the thousands of Israel, a thousand by tribe, twelve thousand armed for war. 
And Moses sent them to the war, a thousand by the tribe, them and Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest, to the war, and the holy instruments, even the alarm-trumpets in his hand. 
And they warred against Midian, as Jehovah had commanded Moses, and slew all the males. 
And they slew the kings of Midian, besides the others slain, Evi, and Rekem, and Zur, and Hur, and Reba, five kings of Midian; and Balaam the son of Beor they slew with the sword. 
And the children of Israel took the women of Midian captives, and their little ones, and took for a spoil all their cattle and all their flocks and all their goods; 
and all their cities in their settlements and all their encampments they burned with fire. 
And they took all the booty, and all the prey, of man and of cattle; 
and they brought to Moses and Eleazar the priest, and to the assembly of the children of Israel, the captives and the prey and the booty, to the camp in the plains of Moab, which are by the Jordan of Jericho. 
And Moses and Eleazar the priest and all the princes of the assembly went forth to meet them outside the camp. 
And Moses was wroth with the officers of the army, with the captains of thousands, and captains of hundreds, who came from the service of the war; 
and Moses said to them, Have ye saved all the women alive? 
Lo, these, through the counsel of Balaam, caused the children of Israel to commit sin against Jehovah in the matter of Peor, and there was a plague on the assembly of Jehovah. 
And now slay every male among the little ones, and slay every woman that hath known man by lying with him, 
but all the children among the women that have not known lying with a man, keep alive for yourselves. 
And encamp outside the camp seven days; whoever hath killed a person, and whoever hath touched any slain; ye shall purify yourselves on the third day, and on the seventh day, you and your captives. 
And every garment, and every vessel of skin, and all work of goat's hair, and every utensil of wood shall ye purify. 
And Eleazar the priest said to the men of war that had gone to the battle, This is the statute of the law which Jehovah hath commanded Moses. 
Only the gold, and the silver, the copper, the iron, the tin, and the lead, 
everything that passeth through the fire, ye shall make it go through the fire, and it shall be clean; only it shall be purified with the water of separation; and everything that cannot pass through the fire ye shall make go through the water. 
And ye shall wash your garments on the seventh day, and ye shall be clean; and afterwards ye may come into the camp. 
And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying, 
Take the sum of the prey that was taken, of man and of cattle, thou, and Eleazar the priest, and the chief fathers of the assembly; 
and divide the prey into halves, between them that conducted the war, who went out to the battle, and the whole assembly. 
And thou shalt levy a tribute for Jehovah of the men of war who went out to the army, one soul of five hundred of the persons, and of the oxen, and of the asses, and of the small cattle. 
Of their half shall ye take it, and give it unto Eleazar the priest, for a heave-offering of Jehovah. 
And of the children of Israel's half, thou shalt take one portion of fifty, of the persons, of the oxen, of the asses, and of the small cattle, of every {kind of} beasts, and thou shalt give them unto the Levites, who keep the charge of the tabernacle of Jehovah. 
And Moses and Eleazar the priest did as Jehovah had commanded Moses. 
And the prey, the rest of the spoil, which the men of war had taken, was six hundred and seventy-five thousand sheep, 
and seventy-two thousand oxen, 
and sixty-one thousand asses, 
and of human persons, of the women that had not known lying with a man, all the persons were thirty-two thousand. 
And the half, the portion of them that had gone out to the war, was in number three hundred and thirty-seven thousand five hundred sheep, 
and the tribute for Jehovah of the sheep was six hundred and seventy-five; 
and the oxen were thirty-six thousand, and the tribute thereof for Jehovah, seventy-two; 
and the asses were thirty thousand five hundred, and the tribute thereof for Jehovah, sixty-one; 
and the human persons were sixteen thousand, of whom the tribute for Jehovah was thirty-two persons. 
And Moses gave the tribute of Jehovah's heave-offering to Eleazar the priest, as Jehovah had commanded Moses. 
And of the children of Israel's half, which Moses had divided, {taking it} from the men that served in the war, 
(now the half belonging to the assembly was of the sheep, three hundred and thirty-seven thousand five hundred, 
and thirty-six thousand oxen, 
and thirty thousand five hundred asses, 
and sixteen thousand human persons,) 
...of the children of Israel's half, Moses took one portion of fifty, of man and of cattle, and gave them to the Levites who kept the charge of the tabernacle of Jehovah; as Jehovah had commanded Moses. 
And the officers who were over the thousands of the host, the captains of thousands, and captains of hundreds, came near to Moses, 
and they said to Moses, Thy servants have taken the sum of the men of war who were under our hand, and there is not one man of us lacking. 
So we present the offering of Jehovah, that which each one hath found, jewels of gold, chains, and bracelets, rings, earrings, and necklaces, to make atonement for our souls before Jehovah. 
And Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold of them, all manner of wrought jewels. 
And all the gold of the heave-offering that they offered to Jehovah was sixteen thousand seven hundred and fifty shekels, from the captains of thousands and the captains of hundreds. 
(The men of war had taken spoil each one for himself.) 
And Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold of the captains of thousands and of hundreds, and brought it into the tent of meeting, as a memorial for the children of Israel before Jehovah. 

Then the Lord said to Moses, 
Give the Midianites punishment for the wrong they did to the children of Israel: and after that you will go to rest with your people. 
So Moses said to the people, Let men from among you be armed for war to put into effect against Midian the Lord's punishment on them. 
From every tribe of Israel send a thousand to the war. 
So from the thousands of Israel a thousand were taken from every tribe, twelve thousand men armed for war. 
And Moses sent them out to war, a thousand from every tribe, and with them Phinehas, the son of Eleazar the priest, taking in his hands the vessels of the holy place and the horns for sounding the note of war. 
And they made war on Midian, as the Lord gave orders to Moses; and they put to death every male. 
They put the kings of Midian to death with the rest, Evi and Reken and Zur and Hur and Reba, the five kings of Midian: and Balaam, the son of Beor, they put to death with the sword. 
The women of Midian with their little ones the children of Israel took prisoner; and all their cattle and flocks and all their goods they took for themselves; 
And after burning all their towns and all their tent-circles, 
They went away with the goods they had taken, man and beast. 
And the prisoners and the goods and everything they had taken, they took to Moses and Eleazar the priest and the people of Israel, to the tent-circle in the lowlands of Moab by the Jordan at Jericho. 
Then Moses and Eleazar the priest and the chiefs of the people went out to them before they had come into the tent-circle. 
And Moses was angry with the chiefs of the army, the captains of thousands and the captains of hundreds who had come back from the war. 
And Moses said to them, Why have you kept all the women safe? 
It was these who, moved by Balaam, were the cause of Israel's sin against the Lord in the question of Peor, because of which disease came on the people of the Lord. 
So now put every male child to death, and every woman who has had sex relations with a man. 
But all the female children who have had no sex relations with men, you may keep for yourselves. 
You yourselves will have to keep outside the tent-circle for seven days, anyone of you who has put any person to death or come near a dead body; and on the third day and on the seventh day make yourselves and your prisoners clean. 
And every bit of clothing, and anything made of leather or goats' hair or wood, you are to make clean. 
Then Eleazar the priest said to the men of war who had been to the fight, This is the rule of the law which the Lord has given to Moses: 
But gold and silver and brass and iron and tin and lead, 
And anything which may be heated, is to go through the fire and be made clean; but in addition it is to be put in the water of cleaning: and anything which may not go through the fire is to be put in the water. 
And on the seventh day, after washing your clothing, you will be clean, and then you may come into the tent-circle. 
And the Lord said to Moses, 
Get an account of everything which was taken in the war, of man and of beast, you and Eleazar the priest and the heads of families of the people: 
And let division be made of it into two parts, one for the men of war who went out to the fight, and one for all the people: 
And from the men of war who went out let there be offered to the Lord one out of every five hundred, from the persons, and from the oxen and asses and sheep: 
Take this from their part and give it to Eleazar the priest as an offering to be lifted up to the Lord. 
And from the part given to the children of Israel, take one out of every fifty, from the persons, and from the oxen and asses and sheep, and give it to the Levites who have the care of the House of the Lord. 
So Eleazar and Moses did as the Lord had given orders to Moses. 
Now the beasts taken, in addition to what the fighting-men took for themselves, were six hundred and seventy-five thousand sheep, 
And seventy-two thousand oxen, 
And sixty-one thousand asses; 
And thirty-two thousand persons, that is, women who had never had sex relations with a man. 
And the half given as their part to the men who went to the war, was three hundred and thirty-seven thousand, five hundred sheep, 
Of which the Lord's part was six hundred and seventy-five. 
The number of oxen was thirty-six thousand, of which the Lord's part was seventy-two; 
The number of asses was thirty thousand, five hundred, of which the Lord's part was sixty-one. 
And the number of persons was sixteen thousand, of which the Lord's part was thirty-two persons. 
And Moses gave the Lord's part, lifted up as an offering, to Eleazar the priest, as the Lord had given orders to Moses. 
And from the half given to the children of Israel, which Moses had kept separate from that given to the fighting-men, 
(Now the people's half was three hundred and thirty-seven thousand, five hundred sheep, 
And thirty-six thousand oxen, 
And thirty thousand, five hundred asses, 
And sixteen thousand persons;) 
Even from the children of Israel's half, Moses took one out of every fifty, men and beasts, and gave them to the Levites who had the care of the House of the Lord; as the Lord gave orders to Moses. 
Then the men in authority over the thousands of the army, the captains of thousands and captains of hundreds, came to Moses, 
And said to him, Your servants have taken note of the number of all the fighting-men under our orders, and every one is present; 
And we have here an offering for the Lord from what every man took in the war, ornaments of gold, leg-chains and arm-rings, finger-rings, ear-rings, and neck-ornaments, to make our souls free from sin before the Lord. 
So Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold from them, even all the worked ornaments. 
And the gold which the captains of thousands and captains of hundreds gave, as an offering to be lifted up before the Lord, came to sixteen thousand, seven hundred and fifty shekels. 
(For every man of the army had taken goods for himself in the war.) 
Then Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold given by the captains of thousands and captains of hundreds, and took it into the Tent of meeting, to be a sign in memory of the children of Israel before the Lord.
