CHAPTER 7

1
On the day
Moses
finished
setting up
the tabernacle,
he anointed
and consecrated
it
and all
its furnishings,
along with the altar
and all
its utensils.
2
And the leaders
of Israel,
the heads
of their families,
presented an offering.
These men
were the tribal
leaders
who had supervised
the registration.
3
They brought
as their offering
before
the LORD
six
covered
carts
and twelve
oxen—
an ox
from each leader
and a cart
from
every two
leaders—
and presented
them
before
the tabernacle.
4
And the LORD
said
to
Moses,
5
“Accept these gifts
from them,
that they may be
used
in the work
of the Tent
of Meeting.
And give
them
to
the Levites,
to every man
according to
his service.”
6
So Moses
took
the carts
and oxen
and gave
them to
the Levites.
7
He gave
the Gershonites
two
carts
and four
oxen,
as their service
required,
8
and
he gave
the Merarites
four
carts
and eight
oxen,
as their service
required,
all under the direction
of Ithamar
son
of Aaron
the priest.
9
But he did not
give
any to the Kohathites,
since
they were to carry
on their
shoulders
the holy objects
for which they were responsible.
10
When
the altar was anointed,
the leaders
approached
with their offerings
for its dedication
and
presented them
before
the altar.
11
And the LORD said
to
Moses,
“Each day
one
leader
is to present
his offering
for the dedication
of the altar.”
