Thomson⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁷ the people came to Moses and said, We have sinned, because we have spoken against the Lord, and against thee; pray therefore to the Lord? and let him take away the serpents from us. ⁸ So Moses prayed to the Lord for the people, and the Lord said to Moses, Make thee a serpent, and put it on a standard; and it shall come to pass that when a serpent biteth a man, every one who is bitten shall live by looking at that. ⁹ So Moses made a serpent of brass, and put it on a standard, and it came to pass that when a serpent bit a man, he looked up to that serpent, and lived.
