Numbers 21 v 6-9
At this , god sent fiery serpents among the people: their bite brought death to many in Isreal. The people came and said to Moses, ' We have sinned by speaking against Yahweh and against you. Intercede for us with Yahweh to save us from these serpents. ' Moses interceded for the people and Yahweh replied.'
Make a fiery serpent and raise it as a standard. Anyone who is bitten and looks at it will survive.'

Moses then made a serpent out of bronze and raised it as a standard, and anyone who was bitten by a serpent and looked at the bronze serpent survived.
