Translation of the Latin Vulgate |
| 17:1 et locutus est Dominus ad Mosen dicens | 17:1. And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying: |
| 17:2 loquere ad filios Israhel et accipe ab eis virgas singulas per cognationes suas a cunctis principibus tribuum virgas duodecim et uniuscuiusque nomen superscribes virgae suae | 17:2. Speak to the children of Israel, and take of every one of them a rod by their kindreds, of all the princes of the tribes, twelve rods, and write the name of every man upon his rod. |
| 17:3 nomen autem Aaron erit in tribu Levi et una virga cunctas eorum familias continebit | 17:3. And the name of Aaron shall be for the tribe of Levi, and one rod shall contain all their families: |
| 17:4 ponesque eas in tabernaculo foederis coram testimonio ubi loquar ad te | 17:4. And thou shalt lay them up in the tabernacle of the covenant before the testimony, where I will speak to thee. |
| 17:5 quem ex his elegero germinabit virga eius et cohibebo a me querimonias filiorum Israhel quibus contra vos murmurant | 17:5. Whomsoever of these I shall choose, his rod shall blossom: and I will make to cease from me the murmurings of the children of Israel, wherewith they murmur against you. |
| 17:6 locutusque est Moses ad filios Israhel et dederunt ei omnes principes virgas per singulas tribus fueruntque virgae duodecim absque virga Aaron | 17:6. And Moses spoke to the children of Israel: and all the princes gave him rods one for every tribe: and there were twelve rods besides the rod of Aaron. |
| 17:7 quas cum posuisset Moses coram Domino in tabernaculo testimonii | 17:7. And when Moses had Laid them up before the Lord in the tabernacle of the testimony: |
| 17:8 sequenti die regressus invenit germinasse virgam Aaron in domo Levi et turgentibus gemmis eruperant flores qui foliis dilatatis in amigdalas deformati sunt | 17:8. He returned on the following day, and found that the rod of Aaron for the house of Levi, was budded: and that the buds swelling it hid bloomed blossoms, which spreading the leaves, were formed into almonds. |
| 17:9 protulit ergo Moses omnes virgas de conspectu Domini ad cunctos filios Israhel videruntque et receperunt singuli virgas suas | 17:9. Moses therefore brought out all the rods from before the Lord to all the children of Israel: and they saw, and every one received their rods. |
| 17:10 dixitque Dominus ad Mosen refer virgam Aaron in tabernaculum testimonii ut servetur ibi in signum rebellium filiorum et quiescant querellae eorum a me ne moriantur | 17:10. And the Lord said to Moses: Carry back the rod of Aaron into the tabernacle of the testimony, that it may be kept there for a token of the rebellious children of Israel, and that their complaints may cease from me lest they die. |
| 17:11 fecitque Moses sicut praeceperat Dominus | 17:11. And Moses did as the Lord had commanded. |
| 17:12 dixerunt autem filii Israhel ad Mosen ecce consumpti sumus omnes perivimus | 17:12. And the children of Israel said to Moses: Behold we are consumed, we all perish. |
| 17:13 quicumque accedit ad tabernaculum Domini moritur num usque ad internicionem cuncti delendi sumus | 17:13. Whosoever approacheth to the tabernacle of the Lord, he dieth. Are we all to a man to be utterly destroyed? |
