9. And Moses brought out all the rods from before the Lord unto all the children of Israel: and they looked, and took every man his rod.
10. And the Lord said unto Moses, Put back the rod of Aaron before the testimony, to be kept for a token against the children of rebellion; that thou mayest make an end of their murmurings against me, that they die not.
11. Thus did Moses: as the Lord commanded him, so did he.
12. And the children of Israel spake unto Moses, saying, Behold, we perish, we are undone, we are all undone.
13. Every one that cometh near, that cometh near unto the tabernacle of the Lord, dieth: shall we perish all of us?
