## Numbers 31:46 in Context (Verses 43–49 KJV)
 
 [43 ](/kjv/numbers/31/43) (Now the half *that pertained unto* the congregation was three hundred thousand and thirty thousand *and* seven thousand and five hundred sheep,
 
 [44 ](/kjv/numbers/31/44) And thirty and six thousand beeves,
 
 [45 ](/kjv/numbers/31/45) And thirty thousand asses and five hundred,
 
 [46 ](/kjv/numbers/31/46) And sixteen thousand persons;)
 
 [47 ](/kjv/numbers/31/47) Even of the children of Israel’s half, Moses took one portion of fifty, *both* of man and of beast, and gave them unto the Levites, which kept the charge of the tabernacle of the LORD; as the LORD commanded Moses.
 
 [48 ](/kjv/numbers/31/48) ¶ And the officers which *were* over thousands of the host, the captains of thousands, and captains of hundreds, came near unto Moses:
 
 [49 ](/kjv/numbers/31/49) And they said unto Moses, Thy servants have taken the sum of the men of war which *are* under our charge, and there lacketh not one man of us.*
 
[Numbers 30](/kjv/numbers/30) [Numbers 32](/kjv/numbers/32)
