And the LORD ... said to Moses ... ,
| LXX |
“ Speak to the Israelites ... and take from them twelve ... staffs , (one) ... - - ... from the leader of each tribe .... Write each - man’s name on his staff ,
| LXX |
and write Aaron’s name on the staff of Levi , because there must be one staff for the head of each tribe ....
| LXX |
Place (the staffs) in the Tent of Meeting in front of the Testimony , where I meet ....
| LXX |
- The staff belonging to the man - I choose will sprout , and I will rid Myself - - of the constant grumbling vvv of the Israelites - - against you. ”
| LXX |
So Moses spoke to the Israelites ... , and each of their leaders gave him ... a staff — one for each of the leaders of their tribes ... , twelve ... staffs in all. And Aaron’s staff was among (them).
| LXX |
Then Moses placed - the staffs before the LORD in the Tent of the Testimony.
| LXX |
- The next day Moses entered ... the Tent of the Testimony and saw that Aaron’s staff , representing the house of Levi , had sprouted , put forth buds , blossomed ... , and produced almonds.
| LXX |
Then Moses - brought out all the staffs from the LORD’s presence to all the Israelites .... They saw them , and each man took his own staff.
| LXX |
The LORD said to Moses , “ Put Aaron’s staff - {back} in front of the Testimony , to be kept as a sign for the rebellious ... , so that you may put an end to their grumbling against Me , lest they die. ”
| LXX |
So Moses did as the LORD - - ... had commanded him.
| LXX |
Then the Israelites ... declared to Moses , ... “ Look , we are perishing ! We are lost ; we are all lost !
| LXX |
Anyone who comes near ... ... the tabernacle of the LORD will die. ... Are we all going to perish ? ”
| LXX |
