CHAP. XVII.
The priesthood is confirmed to
Aaron by the miracle of the
blooming of his rod, which
is kept for a monument in
the tabernacle.
1 And the Lord spoke to
Moses, saying:
2 Speak to the children of
Israel, and take of every one
of them a rod by their kindreds,
of all the princes of
the tribes, twelve rods, and
write the name of every man
upon his rod.
3 And the name of Aaron
shall be for the tribe of Levi,
-- --
and one rod shall contain all
their families:
4 And thou shalt lay them
up in the tabernacle of the
covenant before the testimony,
where I will speak to
thee.
5 Whomsoever of these I
shall choose, his rod shall
blossom: and I will make to
cease from me the murmurings
of the children of Israel,
wherewith they murmur against
you.
6 And Moses spoke to the
children of Israel: and all the
princes gave him rods one for
every tribe: and there were
twelve rods besides the rod of
Aaron.
7 And when Moses had
laid them up before the Lord
in the tabernacle of the testimony:
8 He returned on the following
day, and found that
note the rod of Aaron for the
house of Levi, was budded:
and that the buds swelling it
had bloomed blossoms, which
spreading the leaves, were
formed into almonds.
9 Moses therefore brought
out all the rods from before
the Lord to all the children of
Israel: and they saw and every
one received their rods.
10 And the Lord said to
Moses: Carry back the rod
of Aaron into the tabernacle
of the testimony, that it may
be kept there for a token
of the rebellious children of
Israel, and that their complaints
may cease from me lest
they die.
11 And Moses did as the
Lord had commanded.
12 And the children of
Israel said to Moses: Behold
we are consumed, we all perish.
13 Whosoever approacheth
to the tabernacle of the Lord,
he dieth. Are we all to a
man to be utterly destroyed?
