Voluntary Atonement Offering

48

Then the officers who were over the units of the army—the commanders of thousands and of hundreds—approached Moses

49

and said, “Your servants have counted the soldiers under our command, and not one of us is missing.

50

So we have brought to the LORD an offering of the gold articles each man acquired—armlets, bracelets, rings, earrings, and necklaces—to make atonement for ourselves before the LORD.”

51

So Moses and Eleazar the priest received from them all the articles made out of gold.

52

All the gold that the commanders of thousands and of hundreds presented as an offering to the LORD weighed 16,750 shekels.

53

Each of the soldiers had taken plunder for himself.

54

And Moses and Eleazar the priest received the gold from the commanders of thousands and of hundreds and brought it into the Tent of Meeting as a memorial for the Israelites before the LORD.
