Numbers 17:7-9

New International Reader's Version

⁷ Moses put the sticks in front of the Lord in the tent where the tablets of the covenant law were kept.

⁸ The next day Moses entered the tent. He looked at Aaron’s walking stick. It stood for the tribe of Levi. Moses saw that it had begun to grow new shoots. It had also produced buds and flowers and almonds. ⁹ Then Moses brought out all the walking sticks from in front of the Lord. He brought them to all the Israelites. They looked at them. And each man took his own walking stick.
