Chapter 7
III.
OFFERINGS OF THE LEADERS AND CONSECRATION OF THE LEVITES
Offering of wagons
1
On the day Moses finished setting up the tabernacle, he anointed and consecrated it with all its furniture, as well as the altar and all its accessories. When he had anointed and consecrated it all,
2
the leaders of Israel made an offering; these were the heads of the patriarchal Houses, who were leaders of tribes and had presided over the census.
3
They brought their offering before Yahweh: six covered wagons and twelve oxen, one wagon for every two leaders and one ox each. They brought them before the tabernacle.
4
Yahweh spoke to Moses and said,
5
‘Accept these from them, and let them be set apart for the service of the Tent of Meeting. You are to give them to the Levites, to each as his duties require.’
6
Moses took the wagons and the oxen, and gave them to the Levites.
7
To the sons of Gershon he gave two wagons and four oxen for the duties they had to perform.
8
To the sons of Merari he gave four wagons and eight oxen, for the duties they had to perform under the direction of Ithamar, son of Aaron the priest.
9
But to the sons of Kohath he gave none at all, because the sacred charge entrusted to them had to be carried on their shoulders.
