Bible Verses About Levites: Spoils of war, including captives

Out of the half of the children of Israel, which he had separated for them that had been in the battle.

But out of the half that fell to the rest of the multitude, that is to say, out of the three hundred thirty-seven thousand five hundred sheep,

And out of the thirty-six thousand oxen,

And out of the thirty thousand five hundred asses,

And out of the sixteen thousand persons,

Moses took the fiftieth head, and gave it to the Levites that watched in the tabernacle of the Lord, as the Lord had commanded.
