Numbers 31:4-6 ▼

4 One thousand from each tribe of all the tribes of Israel you shall send to the war.”

5 So there were furnished from the thousands of Israel, one thousand from each tribe, twelve thousand armed for war.

6 And Moses sent them, one thousand from each tribe, to the war, and Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest, to the war with them, and the holy vessels and the trumpets for the alarm in his hand.
