La mise en service du tabernacle et de l’autel
Offrandes pour la consécration du tabernacle
7 Le jour où Moïse acheva de dresser le tabernacle, il versa de l’huile dessus pour le consacrer et fit de même pour ses accessoires ainsi que pour l’autel et tous ses accessoires. Il les oignit d’huile pour les consacrer[a]. 2 Alors les chefs d’Israël, chefs de leurs groupes familiaux qui sont à la tête des tribus et qui avaient été chargés du recensement, 3 apportèrent leur offrande devant l’Eternel : six chariots couverts[b] et douze bœufs – soit un chariot pour deux chefs et un bœuf pour chacun d’eux ; ils les apportèrent devant le tabernacle.
4 L’Eternel parla à Moïse en ces termes : 5 Accepte ces présents de leur part ; ils seront destinés au service de la tente de la Rencontre. Tu les remettras aux lévites, à chacun selon les besoins de son service. 6 Moïse prit les chariots et les bœufs et les donna aux lévites. 7 Il donna deux chariots et quatre bœufs aux Guershonites selon les besoins de leur service. 8 Il donna quatre chariots et huit bœufs aux Merarites, en raison du service qu’ils effectuaient sous la direction d’Itamar, le fils du prêtre Aaron. 9 Il n’en donna pas aux Qehatites, car ils étaient responsables des objets sacrés et devaient les porter sur les épaules.

Numbers 7
King James Version
7 And it came to pass on the day that Moses had fully set up the tabernacle, and had anointed it, and sanctified it, and all the instruments thereof, both the altar and all the vessels thereof, and had anointed them, and sanctified them;
2 That the princes of Israel, heads of the house of their fathers, who were the princes of the tribes, and were over them that were numbered, offered:
3 And they brought their offering before the Lord, six covered wagons, and twelve oxen; a wagon for two of the princes, and for each one an ox: and they brought them before the tabernacle.
4 And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
5 Take it of them, that they may be to do the service of the tabernacle of the congregation; and thou shalt give them unto the Levites, to every man according to his service.

8 And four wagons and eight oxen he gave unto the sons of Merari, according unto their service, under the hand of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest.

Numbers 7
New King James Version
Offerings of the Leaders
7 Now it came to pass, when Moses had finished (A)setting up the tabernacle, that he (B)anointed it and consecrated it and all its furnishings, and the altar and all its utensils; so he anointed them and consecrated them. 2 Then (C)the leaders of Israel, the heads of their fathers’ houses, who were the leaders of the tribes [a]and over those who were numbered, made an offering. 3 And they brought their offering before the Lord, six covered carts and twelve oxen, a cart for every two of the leaders, and for each one an ox; and they presented them before the tabernacle.
4 Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 5 “Accept these from them, that they may be used in doing the work of the tabernacle of meeting; and you shall give them to the Levites, to every man according to his service.” 6 So Moses took the carts and the oxen, and gave them to the Levites. 7 Two carts and four oxen (D)he gave to the sons of Gershon, according to their service; 8 (E)and four carts and eight oxen he gave to the sons of Merari, according to their service, under the [b]authority of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest. 9 But to the sons of Kohath he gave none, because theirs was (F)the service of the holy things, (G)which they carried on their shoulders.
