And Moses did so; as the Lord commanded him, even so did he. ] Took Aaron's rod, and laid it up before the ark for the purpose mentioned, being a faithful servant to God in all his house.
9
Moshe brought out all the rods from before the LORD to all the children of Yisra'el: and they looked, and took every man his rod.
10
The LORD said to Moshe, Put back the rod of Aharon before the testimony, to be kept for a token against the children of rebellion; that you may make an end of their murmurings against me, that they not die.
11
Thus did Moshe: as the LORD commanded him, so did he.
12
The children of Yisra'el spoke to Moshe, saying, Behold, we perish, we are undone, we are all undone.
13
Everyone who comes near, who comes near to the tent of the LORD, dies: shall we perish all of us?
