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,
3and Aaron`s name thou dost write on the tribe of Levi; for one rod [is] for the head of their fathers` house:
4and thou hast placed them in the tent of meeting, before the testimony, where I meet with you.
5`And it hath come to pass, the man`s rod on whom I fix doth flourish, and I have caused to cease from off me the murmurings of the sons of Israel, which they are murmuring against you.`
6And Moses speaketh unto the sons of Israel, and all their princes give unto him one rod for a prince, one rod for a prince, for their fathers` house, twelve rods, and the rod of Aaron [is] in the midst of their rods;
7and Moses placeth the rods before Jehovah, in the tent of the testimony.
