And when Moses had placed these before the Lord, in the tabernacle of the testimony,
returning on the following day, he found that the rod of Aaron for the house of Levi, had germinated, and that the swelling buds had opened into flowers, which, spreading their petals, were formed into those of an almond tree.

Then the sons of Israel said to Moses: “Behold, we have been consumed; we have been ruined.
Whoever approaches to the tabernacle of the Lord dies. Will we all be wiped away, even to total annihilation?”
