Context Reading
48Then the officers who were over the units of the army — the commanders of thousands and of hundreds — approached Moses 49and said, “Your servants have counted the soldiers under our command, and not one of us is missing. 50So 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.” 51So Moses and Eleazar the priest received from them all the articles made out of gold. 52All the gold that the commanders of thousands and of hundreds presented as an offering to the LORD weighed 16,750 shekels.
