4. The Lord said to Moses,
5. “Accept these gifts from the leaders and use them in the work of the Meeting Tent. Give them to the Levites as they need them.”
6. So Moses accepted the carts and the oxen and gave them to the Levites.
7. He gave two carts and four oxen to the Gershonites, which they needed for their work.
8. Then Moses gave four carts and eight oxen to the Merarites, which they needed for their work. Ithamar son of Aaron, the priest, directed the work of all of them.
