9 Moses at once made a serpent of copper+ and placed it upon the signal pole;+ and it did occur that if a serpent had bitten a man and he gazed+ at the copper serpent, he then kept alive.+
17 “For here I am sending in among YOU serpents, poisonous snakes,+ for which there is no charming,+ and they will certainly bite YOU,” is the utterance of Jehovah.
