Numbers 7

1 On the same day that Moses finished putting up the Tabernacle, he anointed it and dedicated it, along with all its furniture, the altar, and all its utensils.

And it cometh to pass on the day of Moses' finishing setting up the tabernacle, that he anointeth it, and sanctifieth it, and all its vessels, and the altar, and all its vessels, and he anointeth them, and sanctifieth them,

2 The Israelite leaders who were the heads of their families came and gave an offering. They were the same leaders of the tribes who had worked on the registration of the Israelites.

and the princes of Israel (heads of the house of their fathers, they [are] princes of the tribes, they who are standing over those numbered) bring near,

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.

yea, they bring their offering before Jehovah, six waggons covered, and twelve oxen — a waggon for two of the princes, and an ox for one — and they bring them near before the tabernacle.

4 The Lord told Moses,

And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, 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.”

'Receive from them, and they have been to do the service of the tent of meeting, and thou hast given them unto the Levites, each according to his service.'

6 Moses accepted the wagons and oxen and handed them over to the Levites.

And Moses taketh the waggons and the oxen, and giveth them unto the Levites.

7 He gave two wagons and four oxen to the families of Gershon to use as they required.

The two of the waggons and the four of the oxen he hath given to the sons of Gershon, according to their service,

8 He gave four wagons and eight oxen to the families of Merari, to use as they required. The work was all to be done under the direction of Ithamar, son of Aaron the priest.

and the four of the waggons and the eight of the oxen he hath given to the sons of Merari, according to their service, by the hand of Ithamar son of Aaron the priest;

9 He didn't give any wagons or oxen to the Kohathites because their responsibility was to carry on their shoulders the holy objects assigned to their care.

and to the sons of Kohath he hath not given, for the service of the sanctuary [is] on them: on the shoulder they bear.

10 The day the altar was anointed, the leaders came forward with their dedicatory offerings, presenting them in front of it.

And the princes bring near the dedication of the altar in the day of its being anointed; yea, the princes bring near their offering before the altar.
