Numbers 17:2-5 ▼

2 “Speak to the children of Israel, and get from them a rod from each father’s house, all their leaders according to their fathers’ houses—twelve rods. Write each man’s name on his rod.

3 And you shall write Aaron’s name on the rod of Levi. For there shall be one rod for the head of each father’s house.

4 Then you shall place them in the tabernacle of meeting before the Testimony, where I meet with you.

5 And it shall be that the rod of the man whom I choose will blossom; thus I will rid Myself of the complaints of the children of Israel, which they make against you.”
