Offerings of the Leaders
7 Now it happened on (A)the day that Moses had finished setting up the tabernacle, that he (B)anointed it and set it apart as holy with all its furnishings and the altar and all its utensils; he anointed them and set them apart as holy. 2 Then (C)the leaders of Israel, the heads of their fathers’ households, (D)brought an offering near (they were the leaders of the tribes; they were the ones who [a]were over the [b]numbered men). 3 And they brought their offering before Yahweh, six (E)covered carts and twelve oxen, a cart for every two of the leaders and an ox for each one, and they brought them near before the tabernacle. 4 Then Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 5 “Accept these things from them, that they may be [c]used in the service of the tent of meeting, and you shall give them to the Levites, to each 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 he gave to the sons of Gershon, according to (F)their service, 8 and four carts and eight oxen he gave to the sons of Merari, according to (G)their service, under the [d]direction of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest. 9 But he did not give any to the sons of Kohath because theirs was (H)the service of the holy objects, which they carried on the shoulder.
10 And the leaders brought near the dedication offering [e]for the altar [f]when (I)it was anointed, so the leaders brought their offering near before the altar. 11 Then Yahweh said to Moses, “Let them bring their offering near, one leader each day, for the dedication of the altar.”

1 Now when Moses had finished the setting up of the Tabernacle, and (A)anointed it and sanctified it, and all the instruments thereof, and the altar with all the [a]instruments thereof, and had anointed them, and sanctified them,
2 Then the [b]princes of Israel, heads over the houses of their fathers, (they were the princes of the tribes, who were over them that were numbered) offered,
3 And brought their offering before the Lord, six [c]covered chariots, and twelve oxen: one chariot for two princes, and for every one an ox, and they offered them before the Tabernacle.
4 And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
5 Take these of them, that they may be to do the [d]service of the Tabernacle of the Congregation, and thou shalt give them unto the Levites, to every man according unto his office.
6 So Moses took the chariots and the oxen, and gave them unto the Levites:
7 Two chariots and four oxen he gave to the sons of Gershon, according unto their [e]office.
8 And four chariots and eight oxen he gave to the sons of Merari, according unto their office, under the hand of Ithamar the son of Aaron the Priest.
9 But to the sons of Kohath he gave none, [f]because the charge of the Sanctuary belonged to them, which they did bear upon their shoulders.
10 ¶ The princes also offered in the [g]dedication for the altar in the day that it was anointed: then the princes offered their offering before the altar.
