3 They brought to the Lord an offering of six covered wagons and twelve oxen. Each leader gave an ox, and two leaders shared in giving a wagon. They presented them in front of the Tabernacle.
and they brought their offering before Adonai, six covered wagons, and twelve oxen; a wagon for every two of the princes, and for each one an ox: and they presented them before the tabernacle.
4 The Lord told Moses,
Adonai spoke to Moses [Drawn out], saying,
5 “Accept what they're giving you and use them in the work of the Tent of Meeting. Give them to the Levites to use as required.”
“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 [Descendants of United with], to every man according to his service.”
6 Moses accepted the wagons and oxen and handed them over to the Levites.
