84 So these were the offerings from the leaders of Israel (he wrestles with God) for the dedication of the altar when it was anointed: twelve silver platters, twelve silver bowls, and twelve gold dishes. 85 Each silver platter weighed a hundred and thirty shekels, and each silver bowl seventy shekels. The total weight of the silver articles was two thousand four hundred shekels <60.3 lb / 27.4 kg>, according to the sanctuary shekel. 86 The twelve gold dishes filled with incense weighed ten shekels each, according to the sanctuary shekel. The total weight of the gold dishes was a hundred and twenty shekels <3 lb / 1.4 kg>. 87 All the livestock for the burnt offering totaled twelve bulls, twelve rams, and twelve male lambs a year old—together with their grain offerings—and twelve male goats for the sin offering. 88 All the livestock sacrificed for the peace offering totaled twenty-four bulls, sixty rams, sixty male goats, and sixty male lambs a year old. This was the dedication offering for the altar after it was anointed. 89 When Moses (drawn out) entered the Tent of Meeting to speak with the LORD, he heard the voice speaking to him from between the two cherubim above the mercy seat (atonement cover) on the ark of the Testimony (the ark of the covenant). Thus the LORD spoke to him. Numbers 7:84-89, Berean Annotated Bible. Public domain.
