Numbers 17:3-5

New International Reader's Version

³ Write Aaron’s name on Levi’s walking stick. There must be one stick for the head of each of Israel’s tribes. ⁴ Put the walking sticks in the tent of meeting. Place them in front of the ark where the tablets of the covenant law are kept. That is where I meet with you. ⁵ The walking stick that belongs to the man I choose will begin to grow new shoots. The Israelites are never happy with what you do. I will put an end to what they are saying.”
