Numbers 17:2-8

2Speak unto the children of Israel, and takeH7311 of them a staff, a staff for each father's house, of all their princes according to the houses of their fathers, twelve staves: thou shalt write each one's name upon his staff.

3And Aaron's name shalt thou write upon the staff of Levi; for one staff shall beH1961 for [each] head of their fathers' houses.

4And thou shalt lay them up in the tent of meeting before the testimony, whereH834 I meet with you.

5And it shall come to pass, that the manH376 whom I shall choose, his staff shall bud forth; and I will make to cease from before me the murmurings of the children of IsraelH3478, that they murmur against you.

6And MosesH4872 spoke to the children of IsraelH3478, and all their princes gave him a staff, one staff for each prince according to their fathers' houses, twelve staves, and the staff of AaronH175 was among their staves.

7And MosesH4872 laid the staves before Jehovah in the tentH168 of the testimony.

8And it cameH935 to pass, when on the morrow MosesH4872 wentH935 into the tentH168 of the testimony, behold, the staff of AaronH175 for the house of Levi had budded, and broughtH935 forth buds, and bloomed blossoms, and ripened almonds.
