1 Moses|strong="H4872" finished|strong="H3615" setting|strong="H6965" up|strong="H6965" the|strong="H3605" Holy|strong="H6942" Tent. On|strong="H3117" that|strong="H3605" day|strong="H3117" he|strong="H3117" dedicated|strong="H6942" it|strong="H6942" to|strong="H1961" God. Moses|strong="H4872" anointed|strong="H4886" the|strong="H3605" Tent and|strong="H6965" everything|strong="H3605" in|strong="H3117" it|strong="H6942". He|strong="H3117" also|strong="H4872" anointed|strong="H4886" the|strong="H3605" altar|strong="H4196" and|strong="H6965" all|strong="H3605" the|strong="H3605" things|strong="H3605" used|strong="H1961" with|strong="H3117" it|strong="H6942".
2 Then|strong="H7126" the|strong="H5921" leaders|strong="H7218" of|strong="H1004" Israel|strong="H3478" gave|strong="H6485" offerings|strong="H3478" to|strong="H5921" God. These|strong="H1992" men|strong="H7218" were|strong="H3478" the|strong="H5921" heads|strong="H7218" of|strong="H1004" their|strong="H1992" families|strong="H1004" and|strong="H3478" leaders|strong="H7218" of|strong="H1004" their|strong="H1992" tribes|strong="H4294". These|strong="H1992" were|strong="H3478" the|strong="H5921" same men|strong="H7218" who|strong="H3478" were|strong="H3478" in|strong="H5921" charge|strong="H5921" of|strong="H1004" counting the|strong="H5921" people.
3 These leaders|strong="H5387" brought|strong="H0935" gifts and|strong="H0935" gave|strong="H0935" them|strong="H0853" to|strong="H0935" the|strong="H0853" LORD|strong="H3068" in|strong="H5921" front|strong="H6440" of|strong="H3068" the|strong="H0853" Holy Tent. They|strong="H5921" brought|strong="H0935" six|strong="H8337" covered|strong="H6632" wagons|strong="H5699" and|strong="H0935" twelve|strong="H6240" oxen|strong="H1241" for|strong="H5921" pulling the|strong="H0853" wagons|strong="H5699". Each|strong="H0259" leader|strong="H5387" gave|strong="H0935" an|strong="H7126" ox|strong="H7794" and|strong="H0935" joined|strong="H0935" with|strong="H3068" another|strong="H0259" leader|strong="H5387" to|strong="H0935" give|strong="H0935" a|strong="H0935" wagon|strong="H5699".
4 The|strong="H0559" LORD|strong="H3068" said|strong="H0559" to|strong="H0413" Moses|strong="H4872",
5 “Accept|strong="H3947" these|strong="H3947" gifts from|strong="H0376" the|strong="H0853" leaders. These|strong="H3947" gifts can|strong="H3947" be|strong="H1961" used|strong="H1961" in|strong="H0413" the|strong="H0853" work|strong="H5656" of|strong="H0376" the|strong="H0853" Meeting|strong="H4150" Tent|strong="H0168". Give|strong="H5414" them|strong="H0413" to|strong="H0413" the|strong="H0853" Levites|strong="H3881" to|strong="H0413" help them|strong="H0413" do|strong="H5647" their|strong="H5414" work|strong="H5656".”
6 So|strong="H3947" Moses|strong="H4872" accepted|strong="H3947" the|strong="H0853" wagons|strong="H5699" and|strong="H4872" the|strong="H0853" oxen|strong="H1241" and|strong="H4872" gave|strong="H5414" them|strong="H0413" to|strong="H0413" the|strong="H0853" Levites|strong="H3881".
7 He|strong="H5414" gave|strong="H5414" two|strong="H8147" wagons|strong="H5699" and|strong="H1121" four|strong="H0702" oxen|strong="H1241" to|strong="H5414" the|strong="H0853" men|strong="H1121" in|strong="H1121" Gershon’s|strong="H1648" group. They|strong="H6310" needed the|strong="H0853" wagons|strong="H5699" and|strong="H1121" the|strong="H0853" oxen|strong="H1241" for|strong="H5414" their|strong="H5414" work|strong="H5656".
8 Then|strong="H0853" Moses|strong="H5414" gave|strong="H5414" four|strong="H0702" wagons|strong="H5699" and|strong="H1121" eight|strong="H8083" oxen|strong="H1241" to|strong="H5414" the|strong="H0853" men|strong="H1121" in|strong="H1121" Merari’s|strong="H4847" group. They|strong="H6310" needed the|strong="H0853" wagons|strong="H5699" and|strong="H1121" oxen|strong="H1241" for|strong="H3027" their|strong="H5414" work|strong="H5656". Ithamar|strong="H0385" son|strong="H1121" of|strong="H1121" Aaron|strong="H0175" the|strong="H0853" priest|strong="H3548" was|strong="H1121" responsible for|strong="H3027" the|strong="H0853" work|strong="H5656" of|strong="H1121" all|strong="H6310" these|strong="H0175" men|strong="H1121".
9 Moses|strong="H3588" did|strong="H3808" not|strong="H3808" give|strong="H5414" any|strong="H5414" oxen or|strong="H3808" wagons to|strong="H5921" the|strong="H5921" men|strong="H1121" in|strong="H5921" Kohath’s|strong="H6955" group, because|strong="H3588" their|strong="H5375" job|strong="H5656" was|strong="H1121" to|strong="H5921" carry|strong="H5375" the|strong="H5921" holy|strong="H6944" things|strong="H6944" on|strong="H5921" their|strong="H5375" shoulders|strong="H3802".
10 When|strong="H3117" Moses|strong="H7126" anointed|strong="H4886" the|strong="H0853" altar|strong="H4196", the|strong="H0853" leaders|strong="H5387" brought|strong="H7126" offerings for|strong="H4196" its|strong="H0853" dedication|strong="H2598". They|strong="H3117" gave their|strong="H6440" offerings to|strong="H3117" the|strong="H0853" Lord at|strong="H3117" the|strong="H0853" altar|strong="H4196".
11 The|strong="H0853" LORD|strong="H3068" told|strong="H0559" Moses|strong="H4872", “Each|strong="H0259" day|strong="H3117" one|strong="H0259" leader|strong="H5387" must|strong="H0853" bring|strong="H7126" his|strong="H3068" gift|strong="H3068" for|strong="H0413" the|strong="H0853" dedication|strong="H2598" of|strong="H3068" the|strong="H0853" altar|strong="H4196".”
84 So|strong="H0853" all|strong="H3117" these|strong="H2063" things|strong="H8147" were|strong="H3478" the|strong="H0853" gifts|strong="H2598" from|strong="H3478" the|strong="H0853" leaders|strong="H5387" of|strong="H3117" the|strong="H0853" Israelites|strong="H3478". They|strong="H3117" brought them|strong="H0853" during|strong="H3117" the|strong="H0853" time|strong="H3117" that|strong="H3117" Moses|strong="H4886" dedicated the|strong="H0853" altar|strong="H4196" by|strong="H3117" anointing|strong="H4886" it|strong="H2091". They|strong="H3117" brought 12 silver|strong="H3701" plates, 12 silver|strong="H3701" bowls|strong="H4219", and|strong="H3478" 12 gold|strong="H2091" spoons|strong="H3709".

The|strong="H3605" 12 gold|strong="H2091" spoons|strong="H3709" all|strong="H3605" together weighed about|strong="H3605" 3 pounds.
87 The|strong="H3605" total|strong="H3605" number of|strong="H1121" animals for|strong="H3605" the|strong="H3605" burnt|strong="H5930" offering|strong="H4503" was|strong="H1121" 12 bulls|strong="H6499", 12 rams|strong="H0352", and|strong="H1121" 12 one-year-old male|strong="H3532" lambs|strong="H3532". There|strong="H3605" were|strong="H1121" also the|strong="H3605" grain|strong="H3605" offerings|strong="H4503" that|strong="H3605" must|strong="H1121" be|strong="H1121" given with|strong="H3605" these|strong="H3605" offerings|strong="H4503". And|strong="H1121" there|strong="H3605" were|strong="H1121" 12 male|strong="H3532" goats|strong="H5795" to|strong="H1121" be|strong="H1121" used|strong="H3605" for|strong="H3605" a|strong="H3532" sin|strong="H2403" offering|strong="H4503".

In|strong="H8141" this|strong="H2063" way|strong="H2063" they|strong="H8141" dedicated the|strong="H3605" altar|strong="H4196" after|strong="H0310" Moses|strong="H4886" anointed|strong="H4886" it|strong="H0310".
89 When|strong="H0834" Moses|strong="H4872" went|strong="H0935" into|strong="H0413" the|strong="H0853" Meeting|strong="H4150" Tent|strong="H0168" to|strong="H0413" speak|strong="H1696" to|strong="H0413" the|strong="H0853" Lord, he|strong="H0834" heard|strong="H8085" the|strong="H0853" Lord’s voice|strong="H6963" speaking|strong="H1696" to|strong="H0413" him|strong="H0413". The|strong="H0853" voice|strong="H6963" was|strong="H0834" coming|strong="H0935" from|strong="H0935" the|strong="H0853" area between|strong="H0996" the|strong="H0853" two|strong="H8147" Cherub|strong="H3742" angels on|strong="H5921" the|strong="H0853" mercy-cover on|strong="H5921" top|strong="H5921" of|strong="H0168" the|strong="H0853" Box of|strong="H0168" the|strong="H0853" Agreement.
