On the day that Moses had finished setting up the tabernacle, and had anointed it and sanctified it with all its furniture, and the altar with all its vessels, and had anointed and sanctified them; the princes of Israel, the heads of their fathers’ houses, gave offerings. These were the princes of the tribes. These are they who were over those who were counted; and they brought their offering before Yahweh, six covered wagons and twelve oxen; a wagon for every two of the princes, and for each one an ox. They presented them before the tabernacle. Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, “Accept these from them, that they may be used in doing the service of the Tent of Meeting; and you shall give them to the Levites, to every man according to his service.”

Moses took the wagons and the oxen, and gave them to the Levites. He gave two wagons and four oxen to the sons of Gershon, according to their service. He gave four wagons and eight oxen to the sons of Merari, according to their service, under the direction of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest. But to the sons of Kohath he gave none, because the service of the sanctuary belonged to them; they carried it on their shoulders.

10 The princes gave offerings for the dedication of the altar in the day that it was anointed. The princes gave their offerings before the altar.

  1. 7:13 A shekel is about 10 grams or about 0.35 ounces.

Þá er Móse hafði lokið við að reisa búðina og hafði smurt hana og vígt og öll áhöld hennar og smurt og vígt altarið og öll áhöld þess,

færðu höfuðsmenn Ísraels fórnir, foringjar fyrir ættum þeirra _ það er höfuðsmenn ættkvíslanna, forstöðumenn hinna töldu, _

og þeir færðu fórnargjöf sína fram fyrir Drottin, sex skýlisvagna og tólf naut, einn vagn fyrir hverja tvo höfuðsmenn, og naut fyrir hvern þeirra. Færðu þeir þetta fram fyrir búðina.

Drottinn talaði við Móse og sagði:

"Tak þú við þessu af þeim, og það sé haft til þjónustugjörðar við samfundatjaldið, og fá þú þetta levítunum, eftir því sem þjónusta hvers eins er til."

Þá tók Móse vagnana og nautin og seldi það levítunum í hendur.

Gersons sonum fékk hann tvo vagna og fjögur naut, eftir þjónustu þeirra.

Og Merarí sonum fékk hann fjóra vagna og átta naut, eftir þjónustu þeirra undir umsjón Ítamars, Aronssonar prests.

En Kahats sonum fékk hann ekkert, því að á þeim hvíldi þjónusta hinna helgu dóma. Skyldu þeir bera þá á herðum sér.

10 Höfuðsmennirnir færðu gjafir til vígslu altarisins daginn sem það var smurt, og þeir færðu fórnargjöf sína fram fyrir altarið.

11 Þá sagði Drottinn við Móse: "Höfuðsmennirnir skulu bera fram fórnargjafir sínar sinn daginn hver til vígslu altarisins."
