They brought as their offering before the lord Six covered carts a cart from every two leaders and an ox from each one and presented them infront of the tabernacle.
Then the LORD said Accept these from them Numbers 7:4-5[4]Then the Lord said to Moses,[5]Accept the things from them, that they may be used in doing the service of the Tent of Meeting, and give them to the Levites, to each man according to his service.
