Numbers 21:8 CPDV

⁶  For this reason, the Lord sent fiery serpents among the people, which wounded or killed many of them.

⁷  And so they went to Moses, and they said: 'We have sinned, because we have spoken against the Lord and against you. Pray, so that he may take away these serpents from us.' And Moses prayed for the people.

⁸  And the Lord said to him: 'Make a bronze serpent, and place it as a sign. Whoever, having been struck, gazes upon it, shall live.'

⁹  Therefore, Moses made a bronze serpent, and he placed it as a sign. When those who had been struck gazed upon it, they were healed.

¹⁰  And the sons of Israel, setting out, made camp at Oboth.
