| 6 | And the Lord sent among the people deadly serpents, and they bit the people, and much people of the children of Israel died. | Then the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people, so that many people of Israel died. | Then the LORD sent venomous snakes among them; they bit the people and many Israelites died. | |
| 7 | And the people came to Moses and said, We have sinned, for we have spoken against the Lord, and against thee: pray therefore to the Lord, and let him take away the serpent from us. | And the people came to Moses and said, “We have sinned, for we have spoken against the LORD and against you. Pray to the LORD, that he take away the serpents from us.” So Moses prayed for the people. | The people came to Moses and said, “We sinned when we spoke against the LORD and against you. Pray that the LORD will take the snakes away from us.” So Moses prayed for the people. | |
| 8 | And Moses prayed to the Lord for the people; and the Lord said to Moses, Make thee a serpent, and put it on a signal- staff ; and it shall come to pass that whenever a serpent shall bite a man, every one so bitten that looks upon it shall live. | And the LORD said to Moses, “Make a fiery serpent and set it on a pole, and everyone who is bitten, when he sees it, shall live.” | The LORD said to Moses, “Make a snake and put it up on a pole; anyone who is bitten can look at it and live.” | |
| 9 | And Moses made a serpent of brass, and put it upon a signal- staff : and it came to pass that whenever a serpent bit a man, and he looked on the brazen serpent, he lived. | So Moses made a bronze serpent and set it on a pole. And if a serpent bit anyone, he would look at the bronze serpent and live. | So Moses made a bronze snake and put it up on a pole. Then when anyone was bitten by a snake and looked at the bronze snake, they lived. | |
