Numbers 31:28-30

Living Bible

²⁸ But first, the Lord gets a share of all the captives, oxen, donkeys, and flocks kept by the army. His share is one out of every five hundred. ²⁹ Give this share to Eleazar the priest to be presented to the Lord by the gesture of waving before the altar. ³⁰ Also levy a 2 percent tribute of all the captives, flocks, and cattle that are given to the people of Israel. Present this to the Levites in charge of the Tabernacle, for it is the Lord’s portion.”
