Exodus 4:3-5

Modern English Version

³ He said, “Throw it on the ground.”

And he threw it on the ground, and it became a serpent. Then Moses fled from it. ⁴ Then 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. ⁵ “This is so that they may believe that the Lord, the God of their fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has appeared to you.”
