Unchecked Copy BoxNum 17:3 - and write Aaron’s name on the rod of Levi; for there is one rod for the head of each of their fathers’ households.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 17:4 - “You shall then deposit them in the tent of meeting in front of the testimony, where I meet with you.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 17:5 - “And it will come about that the rod of the man whom I choose will sprout. Thus I will rid Myself of the grumblings of the sons of Israel, who are grumbling against you.”
