Chapter 17 | |
1. |
And in a dream the Lord spoke unto Moses, and from his dream Moses interpreted the Lord, saying, |
|
2. |
Speak unto the children of Israel, and take of every one of them a rod according to the house of their fathers, of all their princes according to the house of their fathers twelve rods: write you every man's name upon his rod. |
|
3. |
And you shall write Aaron's name upon the rod of Levi: for one rod shall be for the head of the house of their fathers. |
|
4. |
And you shall lay them up in the tabernacle of the congregation before the testimony, where I will meet with you. |
|
5. |
And it shall come to pass, that the man's rod, whom I shall choose, shall blossom: and I will make to cease from me the murmurings of the children of Israel, whereby they murmur against you. |
|
6. |
And Moses spoke unto the children of Israel, and every one of their princes gave him a rod apiece, for each prince one, according to their fathers' houses, even twelve rods: and the rod of Aaron was among their rods. |
|
7. |
And Moses laid up the rods before the Lord in the tabernacle of witness. | |
8. |
And it came to pass, that on the morrow Moses went into the tabernacle of witness; and, behold, the rod of Aaron for the house of Levi was budded, and brought forth buds, and bloomed blossoms, and yielded almonds. |
|
9. |
And Moses brought out all the rods from before the Lord unto all the children of Israel: and they looked, and took every man his rod. |
|
10. |
And the Lord said unto Moses, Bring Aaron's rod again before the testimony, to be kept for a token against the rebels; and you shall quite take away their murmurings from me, that they die not. |
|
11. |
And Moses did so: as the Lord commanded him, so did he. |
|
12. |
And the children of Israel spoke unto Moses, saying, Behold, we die, we perish, we all perish. |
|
13. |
Whosoever cometh any thing near unto the tabernacle of the Lord shall die: shall we be consumed with dying? |
