And 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:
Therefore said he, Take it up to you. And he put out his hand, and took it.
You shall tread on the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shall you trample under feet.
And he said, Cast it on the ground. And he cast it on the ground, and it became a serpent; and Moses fled from before it.
That they may believe that the LORD God of their fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has appeared to you.
They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.
Behold, I give to you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.
His mother said to the servants, Whatever he said to you, do it.
