And Aaron cast his staff before Pharao & before his seruauntes, & it turned to a serpet. 11 Then Pharao called for ye wyse men & Sorcerers. And the Sorcerers of Egipte also dyd like wyse with their Sorceries, 12 and euery one cast his staff before him, & they turned vnto serpentes. But Aarons staff deuoured their staues.
