1 And Moses answered and said, “But they will not believe me, nor listen to my voice. For they will say, ‘The Lord has not appeared to you.’ ”
2 The Lord said to him, “What is that in your hand?”And he said, “A rod.”
3 He said, “Throw it on the ground.”And he threw it on the ground, and it became a serpent. Then Moses fled from it.
4 Then the Lord said to Moses, “Put forth your hand and take it by the tail.” And he put forth his hand, and caught it, and it became a rod in his hand.
