And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:
Many times did he deliver them; but they provoked {him} with their counsel, and were brought low for their iniquity. {brought...: or, impoverished, or, weakened}
The LORD {is} gracious, and full of compassion; slow to anger, and of great mercy. {of great...: Heb. great in mercy}
He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered {them} from their destructions.
For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed me: for he wrote of me.
Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I {am} God, and {there is} none else.
And he said unto them, These {are} the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and {in} the prophets, and {in} the psalms, concerning me.
He removed the high places, and brake the images, and cut down the groves, and brake in pieces the brasen serpent that Moses had made: for unto those days the children of Israel did burn incense to it: and he called it Nehushtan. {images: Heb. statues} {Nehushtan: that is, A piece of brass}
And the whole multitude sought to touch him: for there went virtue out of him, and healed {them} all.
