Numbrite raamat 21: 4-9

21:4 Then they set out from mount Hor, by the way that leads to the Red Sea, to circle around the land of Edom. And the people began to tire of their journey and hardships.
21:5 And speaking against God and Moses, they said: “Why did you lead us away from Egypt, so as to die in the wilderness? Bread is lacking; there are no waters. Our soul is now nauseous over this very light food.”
21:6 Sel põhjusel, the Lord sent fiery serpents among the people, which wounded or killed many of them.
21:7 And so they went to Moses, and they said: “We have sinned, because we have spoken against the Lord and against you. Pray, so that he may take away these serpents from us.” And Moses prayed for the people.
21:8 Ja Issand ütles talle: “Make a bronze serpent, and place it as a sign. Whoever, having been struck, gazes upon it, shall live.”
21:9 Seetõttu, Moses made a bronze serpent, and he placed it as a sign. When those who had been struck gazed upon it, they were healed.
