Offerings of the Leaders
1 Now it came to pass, when Moses had finished asetting up the tabernacle, that he banointed it and consecrated it and all its furnishings, and the altar and all its utensils; so he anointed them and consecrated them.
2 Then athe leaders of Israel, the heads of their fathers’ houses, who were the leaders of the tribes1 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 ahe gave to the sons of Gershon, according to their service;
8 aand four carts and eight oxen he gave to the sons of Merari, according to their service, under the1 authority of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest.
