Numbers  


17 : 1 Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
17 : 2 Speak to the sons of Israel, and get from them a rod for each father`s household: twelve rods, from all their leaders according to their fathers` households. You shall write each name on his rod,
17 : 3 and write Aaron`s name on the rod of Levi; for there is one rod for the head of each of their fathers` households.
17 : 4 You shall then deposit them in the tent of meeting in front of the testimony, where I meet with you.
17 : 5 It will come about that the rod of the man whom I choose will sprout. Thus I will lessen from upon Myself the grumblings of the sons of Israel, who are grumbling against you.
17 : 6 Moses therefore spoke to the sons of Israel, and all their leaders gave him a rod apiece, for each leader according to their fathers` households, twelve rods, with the rod of Aaron among their rods.
17 : 7 So Moses deposited the rods before the LORD in the tent of the testimony.
17 : 8 Now on the next day Moses went into the tent of the testimony; and behold, the rod of Aaron for the house of Levi had sprouted and put forth buds and produced blossoms, and it bore ripe almonds.
17 : 9 Moses then brought out all the rods from the presence of the LORD to all the sons of Israel; and they looked, and each man took his rod.
17 : 10 But the LORD said to Moses, "Put back the rod of Aaron before the testimony to be kept as a sign against the rebels, that you may put an end to their grumblings against Me, so that they will not die."
17 : 11 Thus Moses did; just as the LORD had commanded him, so he did.
17 : 12 Then the sons of Israel spoke to Moses, saying, "Behold, we perish, we are dying, we are all dying!
17 : 13 Everyone who comes near, who comes near to the tabernacle of the LORD, must die. Are we to perish completely?
