* And they pulled up from Mount Hor by the way to the Sea of Reeds , to go around the land of Edom . And the soul of the people became impatient because of the way . * And the people spoke against God , and against Moses , Why have you brought us out of Egypt to die in the wilderness ? For there is no bread , and there is no water ; and our soul hates this light bread . * And Jehovah sent fiery serpents among the people ; and they bit the people , and many people of Israel died . * And the people came in to Moses and said , We have sinned , for we have spoken against Jehovah , and against you . Pray to Jehovah , and He shall turn the serpent away from us . And Moses prayed on behalf of the people . * And Jehovah spoke to Moses , Make yourself a fiery serpent , and set it on a pole ; and it shall be that when anyone is bitten , when he sees it , he shall live . * And Moses made a serpent of bronze and put it on a pole ; and it happened , if a serpent had bitten any man , when he looked to the bronze serpent , he lived .
