1 Y ACONTECIO, que cuando Moisés hubo acabado de levantar el tabernáculo, y ungídolo, y santificádolo, con todos sus vasos; y asimismo ungido y santificado el altar, con todos sus vasos;
2 Entonces los príncipes de Israel, las cabezas de las casas de sus padres, los cuales eran los príncipes de las tribus, que estaban sobre los contados, ofrecieron;
3 Y trajeron sus ofrendas delante de Jehová, seis carros cubiertos, y doce bueyes; por cada dos príncipes un carro, y cada uno un buey; lo cual ofrecieron delante del tabernáculo.
4 Y Jehová habló á Moisés, diciendo:
5 Tómalo de ellos, y será para el servicio del tabernáculo del testimonio: y lo darás á los Levitas, á cada uno conforme á su ministerio.
