Numbers 3:46-48
Easy-to-Read Version
46 There are 22,000 Levites, but there are 22,273 firstborn sons from the other families. This leaves 273 more firstborn sons than Levites. 47 Using the official measure, collect five shekels[a] of silver for each of the 273 people. (The shekel by the official measure weighs 20 gerahs.[b]) Collect that silver from the Israelites. 48 Give the silver to Aaron and his sons as payment for the 273 Israelites.’”
