Numbers 17:5-7

New Century Version

⁵ I will choose one man whose walking stick will begin to grow leaves; in this way I will stop the Israelites from always complaining against you.”

⁶ So Moses spoke to the Israelites. Each of the twelve leaders gave him a walking stick—one from each tribe—and Aaron’s walking stick was among them. ⁷ Moses put them before the Lord in the Tent of the Agreement.
