Bible verse
and write Aaron’s name on the staff of Levi, because there must be one staff for the head of each tribe.
Numbers 17:3 · BSB
The verses around it, from Numbers 17.
1 And the LORD said to Moses,
2 “Speak to the Israelites and take from them twelve staffs, one from the leader of each tribe. Write each man’s name on his staff,
3 and write Aaron’s name on the staff of Levi, because there must be one staff for the head of each tribe.
4 Place the staffs in the Tent of Meeting in front of the Testimony, where I meet with you.
5 The staff belonging to the man I choose will sprout, and I will rid Myself of the constant grumbling of the Israelites against you.”
6 So Moses spoke to the Israelites, and each of their leaders gave him a staff—one for each of the leaders of their tribes, twelve staffs in all. And Aaron’s staff was among them.
7 Then Moses placed the staffs before the LORD in the Tent of the Testimony.
