Numbers 17:10-14

But the Lord said to Moses, “Put the staff of Aaron back in front of the testimony to be kept as a sign against the rebels, so that you may put an end to their grumblings against Me and they do not die.”

Moses did so; just as the Lord had commanded him, so he did.

Then the sons of Israel spoke to Moses, saying, “Behold, we are passing away, we are perishing, we are all perishing!

Everyone who comes near, who comes near to the tabernacle of the Lord, must die. Are we to perish completely?”
