Matthew⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁴ Then they departed from mount Hor toward the red sea: to compasse the land of Edom. And the soules of the people faynted by the way. ⁵ And the people spake against God and against Moses: wherfore hast thou brought vs oute of Egypte, for to dye in the wyldernes, for here is neither bread nor water, and our soules lotheth thys light bread. ⁶ Then the Lord sent fiery serpentes amonge the people, which stonge them: so that much people dyed in Israell. ⁷ And the people came to Moses and sayed: we haue sinned, for we haue spoken agayust the Lord and againste the, make intercession to the lorde, that he take away the serpentes from vs. And Moses made intercession for the people. ⁸ And the Lord saide vnto Moses. Make the a serpente, and hang it vp for a sygne, and let as many as are byten loke vpon it, and they shall lyue. ⁹ And Moses made a serpent of brasse & set it vp for a sygne. And when the serpentes had bytten any man, he went and beheld the serpent of brasse, and recouered.
