5 L’homme que je choisirai sera celui dont la verge fleurira, et je ferai cesser de devant moi les murmures que profèrent contre vous les enfants d’Israël.

6 Moïse parla aux enfants d’Israël; et tous leurs princes lui donnèrent une verge, chaque prince une verge, selon les maisons de leurs pères, soit douze verges; la verge d’Aaron était au milieu des leurs.

7 Moïse déposa les verges devant l’Éternel, dans la tente du témoignage.
