Numbers 7
Revised Geneva Translation
7 Now when Moses had finished setting up the Tabernacle, and anointed it and sanctified it and all its instruments, and the Altar with all its instruments, and had anointed them, and sanctified them,
2 then the Princes of Israel, heads over the Houses of their fathers (they were the Princes of the tribes, who were over those who were numbered), offered
3 and brought an offering before the LORD of six covered chariots and twelve oxen (one chariot for every two Princes, and for every Prince an ox). and they offered them before the Tabernacle.
4 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
5 “Take them, that they may be to do the service of the Tabernacle of the Congregation. And you shall give them to the Levites, to every man according to his office.”
6 So Moses took the chariots and the oxen and gave them to the Levites.
7 He gave two chariots and four oxen to the sons of Gershon, according to their office.
8 And he gave four chariots and eight oxen to the sons of Merari, according to their office, under the hand of Ithamar, the son of Aaron the Priest.
9 But to the sons of Kohath he gave none, because they had charge of the Sanctuary, which they bore upon their shoulders.
10 The Princes also offered in the dedication for the Altar on the day that it was anointed. Then the Princes offered their offering before the Altar.
11 And the LORD said to Moses, “One Prince one day, and another Prince another day, shall offer their offering for the dedication of the Altar.”

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.
10 Now the leaders offered (H)the dedication offering for the altar when it was anointed; so the leaders offered their offering before the altar. 11 For the Lord said to Moses, “They shall offer their offering, one leader each day, for the dedication of the altar.”
