The
oblation out of the spoils of the Midianites.
Numbers 31:50-54
We have therefore
brought an oblation for the Lord, what every man hath gotten,
of jewels of gold, chains, and bracelets, rings, earrings,
and tablets, to make an atonement for our souls before the
Lord. And Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold
of them, even all wrought jewels. And all the
gold of the offering that they offered up to the Lord, of
the captains of thousands, and of the captains of hundreds,
was sixteen thousand seven hundred and fifty shekels. (For
the men of war had taken spoil, every man for himself.) And
Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold of the captains
of thousands and of hundreds, and brought it into the tabernacle
of the congregation, for a memorial for the children
of Israel before the Lord. (KJV)
