Numbers 21:6-8

International Children’s Bible

⁶ So the Lord sent them poisonous snakes. They bit the people, and many of the Israelites died. ⁷ The people came to Moses and said, “We sinned when we grumbled at you and the Lord. Pray that the Lord will take away these snakes.” So Moses prayed for the people.

⁸ The Lord said to Moses, “Make a bronze snake. And put it on a pole. If anyone is bitten, he should look at it. Then he will live.”
