6 So Moses took the carts and oxen and gave them to the Levites.
7 He gave the Gershonites two carts and four oxen corresponding to their service,
8 and gave the Merarites four carts and eight oxen corresponding to their service, under the direction of Ithamar son of Aaron the priest.
9 But he did not give any to the Kohathites, since their responsibility was service related to the holy objects carried on their shoulders.
10 The leaders also presented the dedication gift for the altar when it was anointed. The leaders presented their offerings in front of the altar.
11 The Lord told Moses, “Each day have one leader present his offering for the dedication of the altar.”
12 The one who presented his offering on the first day was Nahshon son of Amminadab from the tribe of Judah.
