¶ The .xxxi. Chapter.
¶ The Madianytes ∧ Balam are slayne. The

A present geuen of Israell because none
of their men were slayne.
A And the Lorde spake vnto Moses
saying: note aueng the chyldren of Israel
of the Madianites, and afterward
be geathered vnto thy people.
And Moses spake vnto the folke saying:
Harnesse some of you vnto warre, ∧ let them
go vpon the Madianites and auenge the
Lord of the Madianites. Ye shal sende vnto
the warre a thousand of euery trybe thorow

catel, their substance and their goodes.
B And
they burnt al their cities wherin they dwelt,
and al their castels with fyre. And they toke
all the spoyle and al they coulde catche, both
of men and beastes. And they broughte the
captyues and that which they had tak&ebar; and
all the spoyle vnto Moses and Eleazar the
Preast and vnto the company of the childr&ebar;
of Israel, eu&ebar; vnto the hoste, in the feldes of
Moab by Iordan nye to Iericho.
And Moses and Eleazar the Preast and
al the Lordes of the congregacion went out
of the hoste agaynst them. And Moses was
angrye with the offycers of the hoste, wyth
the captaynes ouer thousandes and ouer h&ubar;dredes,
whyche came from warre ∧ battell,
and sayd vnto th&ebar;:
C Haue ye saued the wem&ebar;
alyue? beholde note these caused the chyldren of
Israel thorow note Balam, to commyt trespace
agaynst the Lorde, by the reason of Peor, ∧
there folowed a plage among the congregacion
of the Lorde. Now therfore note slee al the
men chyldren and the wemen that haue lien
with men fleshlye: But all the wemen chyldren
that haue not ly&ebar; with men, kepe a lyue
for your selues. And lodge without the hoste
seuen dayes al that haue kylled any persone
note and al that haue touched any dead body, ∧
purifye both your selues ∧ youre presoners
the .iij. day and the .vij. And sprynkle al your
raymentes and all that is made of skynnes,
and al worke of gootes here, and al thynges
made of wood.
D And Eleazar the Preast sayde vnto al the
men of warre which went out to battel: this
is the ordinaunce of the law which the Lord
commaunded Moses: Golde, syluer, brasse,
yron, tyn and leade, and all that may abyde
the fyre, ye shall make it go thorow the fyre,
∧ then it is cleane. Neuerthelater, it shalbe
sprynkled with sprynklynge water. And all
that suffreth not the fyre, ye shall make goo
thorow the water. And wash youre clothes
the seuenth day, and then ye are cleane. And
afterward come into the hoste.
And the Lord spake vnto Moses saying:
take the summe of the pray that was taken,
both of the wemen ∧ of catell, thou ∧ Eleazar
the preast and the auncient heades of the
congregacion. And deuyde it in to two partis,
betwene them that toke the warre vpon
them and went out to battell and al the congregaci&obar;.
And take a porcion vnto the Lord
of the men of warre which went out to battell:
one of fyue hundred, of the wemen and
of the oxen and of the asses and of the shepe:
and ye shal take it of their halfe and geue it
vnto Eleazar the preast,
E an heaueofferynge
vnto the Lorde. And of the halfe of the chyldren
of Israel, take one of fyfty, of the wemen,
of the ox&ebar;, of the asses and of the shepe,
and of all maner of beastes, and geue them
vnto the leuites which wayte vp&obar; the habitacyon
of the Lord.
And Moses and Eleazar the preast did as
the Lorde commaunded Moses. And the
botye and the praye which the men of warre
had caught was .vi. hundred thousande and
lxxv. thousand shepe: ∧ .lxxij. thousand oxen
lxi. thousande asses: and .xxxij. thousand wemen
that had lyen by no man.
And the halfe which was the parte of th&ebar;
þt; went out to warre, was .iij. hundred thousande
and .xxxvij. thousande and fyue hundred
shepe: And the Lordes parte of the shepe
was .vi. hundred and .lxxv. And the oxen
were .xxxvi. thousande, of which the Lordes
parte was .lxxij. And the asses were .xxx.
thousande and fyue hundred, of whych the
Lordes parte was .lxi. And the wem&ebar; were
xvi. thousande, of whiche the Lordes parte
was .xxxij. soules. And Moses gaue that
summe which was the lordes heaueoffryng
vnto Eleazar the preast: as the Lorde commaunded
Moses.
F And the other halfe of the
chyldren of Israel which Moses separated
from the men of warre (that is to wete, the
halfe that pertayned vnto the note c&obar;gregaci&obar;)
was .iij. h&ubar;dred thousande and .xxxvij. thousand
and fyue hundred shepe: ∧ .xxxvi. thousande
oxen: and .xxx. thousand asses and fyue
hundred: ∧ .xvi. thousande wemen. And Moses
toke of this halfe that pertayned vnto þe;
chyldren of Israel: one of euery fyftye, both
of the wemen and of the catel, and gaue th&ebar;
vnto the Leuites whyche wayted vpon the
habitacion of the Lorde, as the Lorde commaunded
Moses. And the offycers of thousandes
of the hoste, the captaynes ouer the
thousandes and the captaynes ouer the hundredes
came forth ∧ sayd vnto Moses: Thy
G seruauntes haue taken the summe of the m&ebar;
of warre, which were vnder oure hand, and
there lacked, not one man of them. We haue
therfore brought a present vnto the Lorde
what euery man found of Iewels of golde,
cheynes, bracelettes, rynges, earynges and
spangels, to make an attonement for our soules
before the Lord.
And Moses and Eleazar toke the golde
of them: Iewels of all maner facions. And
al the gold of the heaueoffring of þe; Lord, of
the captaynes ouer thousandes ∧ hundredes
was .xvi. thousand .vij. hundred and .l. sicles
for the men of warre had spoyled, euery m&abar;
for him selfe. And Moses ∧ Eleazar þe; preast
toke the golde of the captaynes ouer þe; thousandes
and ouer the hundredes, and brought
it into the tabernacle of wytnesse: to be a memorial
vnto the children of Israel, before the
Lorde.
