after they had been bitten by the poisonous serpents,

if they would cast their eyes unto the serpent which he did raise up before them,

and also gave him power that he should smite the rock

and the water should come forth;

and as the Lord God liveth,

save it be this Jesus Christ, of which I have spoken,
