nkjv - Numbers:21:4-9

nkjv@Numbers:21:4 @ Then they journeyed from Mount Hor by the Way of the Red Sea, to go around the land of Edom; and the soul of the people became very discouraged on the way.

nkjv@Numbers:21:5 @ And the people spoke against God and against Moses: "Why have you brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? For there is no food and no water, and our soul loathes this worthless bread."

nkjv@Numbers:21:6 @ So the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and many of the people of Israel died.

nkjv@Numbers:21:7 @ Therefore the people came to Moses, and said, "We have sinned, for we have spoken against the LORD and against you; pray to the LORD that He take away the serpents from us." So Moses prayed for the people.

nkjv@Numbers:21:8 @ Then the LORD said to Moses, "Make a fiery serpent, and set it on a pole; and it shall be that everyone who is bitten, when he looks at it, shall live."

nkjv@Numbers:21:9 @ So Moses made a bronze serpent, and put it on a pole; and so it was, if a serpent had bitten anyone, when he looked at the bronze serpent, he lived.
