3and they brought their oblation before Jehovah, six covered wagons, and twelve oxen; a wagon for every two of the princes, and for each one an ox: and they presented them before the tabernacle.

3They brought their gifts before the LORD: six covered wagons and twelve oxen. There was one wagon for every two leaders and one ox for each leader. They presented these in front of the Tabernacle.

4And Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying,

4The LORD said to Moses,

5Take it of them, that they may be used in doing the service of the tent of meeting; and thou shalt give them unto the Levites, to every man according to his service.

5"Accept these gifts from them to be used for the work at the Tent of Meeting. Give them to the Levites to help them with their specific duties."

6And Moses took the wagons and the oxen, and gave them unto the Levites.
