Numbers 17:9 CPDV

⁷  And when Moses had placed these before the Lord, in the tabernacle of the testimony,

⁸  returning on the following day, he found that the rod of Aaron for the house of Levi, had germinated, and that the swelling buds had opened into flowers, which, spreading their petals, were formed into those of an almond tree.

⁹  Therefore, Moses brought out all the rods, from the sight of the Lord, to all the sons of Israel. And they saw, and each one received their rods.

¹⁰  And the Lord said to Moses: 'Carry back the rod of Aaron into the tabernacle of the testimony, so that it may be kept there as a sign of the rebellion of the sons of Israel, and so that their complaints may be quieted before me, lest they die.'

¹¹  And Moses did just as the Lord had instructed.
