Aaron’s Staff Is Chosen
17 The Lord spoke to Moses: 2 “Speak to the Israelites, and collect staffs from them, one from each father’s house, from all their tribal chiefs according to their fathers’ houses, twelve staffs in all. Write each man’s name on his staff. 3 Write Aaron’s name on the staff of Levi, because there will be one staff for each head of their fathers’ houses. 4 You are to place them in the Tent of Meeting before the Testimony, where I meet with you. 5 The staff of the man whom I will choose will sprout. I will rid myself of the Israelites’ constant grumbling against you.”
6 So Moses spoke to the Israelites, and each one of their tribal chiefs gave him a staff, one staff for each tribal chief according to their fathers’ houses, twelve staffs in all. Aaron’s staff was among their staffs. 7 Moses placed the staffs before the Lord in the Tent of the Testimony.
8 On the next day Moses went into the Tent of the Testimony and discovered that Aaron’s staff representing the house of Levi had sprouted, budded, blossomed, and produced almonds. 9 Moses brought out all the staffs from the Lord’s presence to all the Israelites. They looked, and each man took his staff.
10 The Lord said to Moses, “Put Aaron’s staff back in front of the Testimony to be kept as a sign against the rebellious.[a] In this way you will put an end to their grumblings against me, so that they do not die.” 11 That is what Moses did. He did just as the Lord commanded him.
12 The Israelites said to Moses, “Look, we are perishing! We are lost! We are all lost! 13 Everyone who approaches the Lord’s Dwelling dies! Must we all perish?”

La vara de Aarón florece
17 Luego habló Jehová a Moisés, diciendo: 2 Habla a los hijos de Israel, y toma de ellos una vara por cada casa de los padres, de todos los príncipes de ellos, doce varas conforme a las casas de sus padres; y escribirás el nombre de cada uno sobre su vara. 3 Y escribirás el nombre de Aarón sobre la vara de Leví; porque cada jefe de familia de sus padres tendrá una vara. 4 Y las pondrás en el tabernáculo de reunión delante del testimonio, donde yo me manifestaré a vosotros. 5 Y florecerá la vara del varón que yo escoja, y haré cesar de delante de mí las quejas de los hijos de Israel con que murmuran contra vosotros. 6 Y Moisés habló a los hijos de Israel, y todos los príncipes de ellos le dieron varas; cada príncipe por las casas de sus padres una vara, en total doce varas; y la vara de Aarón estaba entre las varas de ellos. 7 Y Moisés puso las varas delante de Jehová en el tabernáculo del testimonio.
8 Y aconteció que el día siguiente vino Moisés al tabernáculo del testimonio; y he aquí que la vara de Aarón de la casa de Leví había reverdecido, y echado flores, y arrojado renuevos, y producido almendras. 9 Entonces sacó Moisés todas las varas de delante de Jehová a todos los hijos de Israel; y ellos lo vieron, y tomaron cada uno su vara. 10 Y Jehová dijo a Moisés: Vuelve la vara de Aarón delante del testimonio,(A) para que se guarde por señal a los hijos rebeldes; y harás cesar sus quejas de delante de mí, para que no mueran. 11 E hizo Moisés como le mandó Jehová, así lo hizo.
12 Entonces los hijos de Israel hablaron a Moisés, diciendo: He aquí nosotros somos muertos, perdidos somos, todos nosotros somos perdidos. 13 Cualquiera que se acercare, el que viniere al tabernáculo de Jehová, morirá. ¿Acabaremos por perecer todos?

King James Version
17 And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and take of every one of them a rod according to the house of their fathers, of all their princes according to the house of their fathers twelve rods: write thou every man's name upon his rod.
3 And thou shalt write Aaron's name upon the rod of Levi: for one rod shall be for the head of the house of their fathers.
4 And thou shalt lay them up in the tabernacle of the congregation before the testimony, where I will meet with you.
5 And it shall come to pass, that the man's rod, whom I shall choose, shall blossom: and I will make to cease from me the murmurings of the children of Israel, whereby they murmur against you.
6 And Moses spake unto the children of Israel, and every one of their princes gave him a rod apiece, for each prince one, according to their fathers' houses, even twelve rods: and the rod of Aaron was among their rods.
7 And Moses laid up the rods before the Lord in the tabernacle of witness.
8 And it came to pass, that on the morrow Moses went into the tabernacle of witness; and, behold, the rod of Aaron for the house of Levi was budded, and brought forth buds, and bloomed blossoms, and yielded almonds.
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, Bring Aaron's rod again before the testimony, to be kept for a token against the rebels; and thou shalt quite take away their murmurings from me, that they die not.
11 And Moses did so: as the Lord commanded him, so did he.
12 And the children of Israel spake unto Moses, saying, Behold, we die, we perish, we all perish.
13 Whosoever cometh any thing near unto the tabernacle of the Lord shall die: shall we be consumed with dying?
