1 And when Moyses had full set vp the tabernacle, & annoynted and sanctified it, and all the instrumentes therof, the aulter also & all the vessels therof: and had annoynted them & sanctified them.

2 Then the princes of Israel, heades ouer the houses of their fathers (which were the lordes of the tribes, and ouer them that were numbred) offered,

3 And brought their sacrifice before the Lorde, sixe couered charettes, & twelue oxen: one charet for two lordes, and for one an oxe, and they brought them before the tabernacle.

4 And the Lorde spake vnto Moyses, saying:

5 Take it of them, that they may be to do the seruice of the tabernacle of the congregation, and thou shalt geue them vnto the Leuites, to euery man accordyng vnto his office.

6 And Moyses toke the charettes and the oxen, & gaue them vnto the Leuites.

7 Two charettes and foure oxen he gaue vnto the sonnes of Gerson, accordyng vnto their office.
