Numbers 17:6-8
1599 Geneva Bible
6 ¶ Then Moses spake unto the children of Israel, and all their Princes gave him a rod, one rod for every prince, according to the houses of their fathers, even twelve rods, and the rod [a]of Aaron was among their rods.
7 And Moses laid the rods before the Lord in the Tabernacle of the Testimony.
8 And when Moses on the morrow went into the Tabernacle of the Testimony, behold, the rod of Aaron [b]for the house of Levi was budded, and brought forth buds, and brought forth blossoms, and bare ripe almonds.
