1
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

2
`Speak unto the sons of Israel, and take from them each a rod, for a father's house, from all their princes, for the house of their fathers, twelve rods; the name of each thou dost write on his rod,
3 You shall write Aharon's name on the rod of Levi; for there shall be one rod for each head of their fathers' houses.
3
and Aaron's name thou dost write on the tribe of Levi; for one rod [is] for the head of their fathers' house:
4 You shall lay them up in the tent of meeting before the testimony, where I meet with you.
4
and thou hast placed them in the tent of meeting, before the testimony, where I meet with you.
5 It shall happen, that the rod of the man whom I shall choose shall bud: and I will make to cease from me the murmurings of the children of Yisra'el, which they murmur against you.
5
