²⁶ You, Eleazar the priest, and the leaders of the community’s households must take an inventory of the valuable property and the captives, both human and animals, ²⁷ and divide the valuable property between the warriors who went into battle and the entire community. ²⁸ You will offer as tribute to the Lord from each warrior who went into battle one living being in five hundred, whether human, oxen, donkeys, or flocks.
