3 And the Lord said: Cast it down upon the ground. He cast it down, and it was turned into a serpent: so that Moses fled from it.

Exodus 4:2-4
New International Version
2 Then the Lord said to him, “What is that in your hand?”
“A staff,”(A) he replied.
3 The Lord said, “Throw it on the ground.”
Moses threw it on the ground and it became a snake,(B) and he ran from it. 4 Then the Lord said to him, “Reach out your hand and take it by the tail.” So Moses reached out and took hold of the snake and it turned back into a staff in his hand.
