1 Et locutus est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens: 2 Loquere ad filios Israël, et accipe ab eis virgas singulas per cognationes suas, a cunctis principibus tribuum, virgas duodecim, et uniuscujusque nomen superscribes virgæ suæ. 3 Nomen autem Aaron erit in tribu Levi, et una virga cunctas seorsum familias continebit: 4 ponesque eas in tabernaculo fœderis coram testimonio, ubi loquar ad te. 5 Quem ex his elegero, germinabit virga ejus: et cohibebo a me querimonias filiorum Israël, quibus contra vos murmurant. 6 Locutusque est Moyses ad filios Israël: et dederunt ei omnes principes virgas per singulas tribus: fueruntque virgæ duodecim absque virga Aaron. 7 Quas cum posuisset Moyses coram Domino in tabernaculo testimonii, 8 sequenti die regressus invenit germinasse virgam Aaron in domo Levi: et turgentibus gemmis eruperant flores, qui, foliis dilatatis, in amygdalas deformati sunt. 9 Protulit ergo Moyses omnes virgas de conspectu Domini ad cunctos filios Israël: videruntque, et receperunt singuli virgas suas. 10 Dixitque Dominus ad Moysen: Refer virgam Aaron in tabernaculum testimonii, ut servetur ibi in signum rebellium filiorum Israël, et quiescant querelæ eorum a me, ne moriantur. 11 Fecitque Moyses sicut præceperat Dominus. 12 Dixerunt autem filii Israël ad Moysen: Ecce consumpti sumus, omnes perivimus. 13 Quicumque accedit ad tabernaculum Domini, moritur. Num usque ad internecionem cuncti delendi sumus?
