Numbers 17:8-10
8 Now on the next day Moses went into the tent of the testimony; and behold, (A)the rod of Aaron for the house of Levi had sprouted and put forth buds and produced blossoms, and it bore ripe almonds.
9 Moses then brought out all the rods from the presence of the Lord to all the sons of Israel; and they looked, and each man took his rod.
10 But the Lord said to Moses, “Put back the rod of Aaron (B)before the testimony (a)to be kept as a sign against the (b)(C)rebels, that you may put an end to their grumblings against Me, so that they will not die.”
