Then they
set out from
Mount Hor by the
way of the
Red * Sea, to
go around the
land of
Edom; and the
people became impatient because of the
journey.

The
people spoke against
God and
Moses,
"Why have you
brought us up out of
Egypt to
die in the
wilderness? For
there is
no food and
no water, and we
loathe this
miserable food."

The
LORD sent fiery serpents among the
people and they
bit the
people, so that
many people of
Israel died.

So the
people came to
Moses and
said, "We have
sinned,
because we have
spoken against the
LORD and you;
intercede with the
LORD, that He may
remove the
serpents from us." And
Moses interceded for the
people.

Then the
LORD said to
Moses,
"Make a
fiery serpent, and
set it on a
standard; and it shall
come about, that
everyone who is
bitten, when he
looks at it, he will
live."

And
Moses made a
bronze serpent and
set it on the
standard; and it
came about, that
if a
serpent bit any man, when he
looked to the
bronze serpent, he
lived.
