THE MESSAGE
God spoke to Moses: "Speak to the People of Israel. Get staffs from them—twelve staffs in all, one from the leader of each of their ancestral tribes. Write each man's name on his staff. Start with Aaron; write Aaron's name on the staff of Levi and then proceed with the rest, a staff for the leader of each ancestral tribe. Now lay them out in the Tent of Meeting in front of The Testimony where I keep appointments with you. What will happen next is this: The staff of the man I choose will sprout. I'm going to put a stop to this endless grumbling by the People of Israel against you."

Contextual Overview
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 2 Speak to the children of Israel, and take rods of them, according to the houses of their families, a rod from all their princes, according to the houses of their families, twelve rods, and write the name of each on his rod. 3 And write the name of Aaron on the rod of Levi; for it is one rod for each: they shall give them according to the tribe of the house of their families. 4 And thou shalt put them in the tabernacle of witness, before the testimony, where I will be made known to thee. 5 And it shall be, the man whom I shall choose, his rod shall blossom; and I will remove from me the murmuring of the children of Israel, which they murmur against you. 6 And Moses spoke to the children of Israel, and all their chiefs gave him a rod each, for one chief a rod, according to the house of their families, twelve rods; and the rod of Aaron was in the midst of the rods. 7 And Moses laid up the rods before the Lord in the tabernacle of witness.

saying: as follows.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
CHAPTER XVII
The twelve chiefs of the tribes are commanded to take their
rods, and to write the name of each tribe upon the rod that
belonged to its representative; but the name of Aaron is to be
written on the rod of the tribe of Levi, 1-3.
The rods are to be laid up before the Lord, who promises that
the man's rod whom he shalt choose for priest shall blossom,
4, 5.
The rods are produced and laid up before the tabernacle, 6, 7.
Aaron's rod alone buds, blossoms, and bears fruit, 8, 9.
It is laid up before the testimony as a token of the manner in
which God had disposed of the priesthood, 10, 11.
The people are greatly terrified, and are apprehensive of being
destroyed, 12, 13.
