12. For they cast down every man his rod, and they became serpents: but Aaron's rod swallowed up their rods.

15. Get you unto Pharaoh in the morning; lo, he goes out unto the water; and you shall stand by the river's bank until he comes; and the rod which was turned to a serpent shall you take in your hand.
