1. On the day Moses finished setting up the tabernacle, he anointed it and consecrated it with all its furnishings, as well as the altar and all its utensils. After he had anointed and consecrated them,
2. the leaders of Israel, the heads of their ancestral houses, presented offerings. They were the leaders of the tribes, the men in charge of those who had been registered.
3. They brought their offering before Yahweh: six covered carts and twelve oxen, a cart for every two leaders and an ox for each one. They presented them in front of the tabernacle.
4. Yahweh said to Moses,
5. “Accept these from them, so that they may be used in the work of the tent of meeting, and give them to the Levites, to each group as its work requires.”

8. and he gave four carts and eight oxen to the Merarites, as their work required. They were under the direction of Ithamar son of Aaron the priest.
