LEB(i)
2 "Speak to the ⌊Israelites⌋,* and take from among them twelve staffs, ⌊a staff from each family⌋* from among all their leaders according to their families' households. Write the name of each man on his staff,
3 and the name of Aaron on the staff of Levi, because one staff is for the head of each of ⌊their families⌋.*
4 You must then put them in the tent of assembly ⌊before⌋* the testimony* where I meet with you.
5 And it will happen, the man whom I will choose, his staff will blossom, and so I will rid from upon myself the grumblings of the ⌊Israelites⌋,* who are grumbling against you."
6 Moses spoke to the ⌊Israelites⌋,* and all their leaders gave him a staff for each leader, one from ⌊each of their families⌋,* twelve staffs, and the staff of Aaron was in the midst of their tribes.
7 And Moses put the staffs before Yahweh in the tent of testimony.
8 Then the next day, Moses went into the tent of the testimony, and behold the staff of Aaron for the house of Levi blossomed and put forth a flower and produced blossoms, and it produced almonds.
9 Then Moses brought out to all the ⌊Israelites⌋* all the staffs before the presence of Yahweh, and they saw, and each man took his staff.
