Numbers 16 - Versions
Numbers 16 Text (WEB)
  1. Now Korah, the son of Izhar, the son of Kohath, the son of Levi, with Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, and On, the son of Peleth, sons of Reuben, took [men]:
  2. and they rose up before Moses, with certain of the children of Israel, two hundred fifty princes of the congregation, called to the assembly, men of renown;
  3. and they assembled themselves together against Moses and against Aaron, and said to them, "You take too much on yourself, since all the congregation are holy, everyone of them, and Yahweh is among them: why then lift yourselves up above the assembly of Yahweh?"
  4. When Moses heard it, he fell on his face:
  5. and he spoke to Korah and to all his company, saying, "In the morning Yahweh will show who are his, and who is holy, and will cause him to come near to him: even him whom he shall choose he will cause to come near to him.
  6. Do this: take censers, Korah, and all his company;
  7. and put fire in them, and put incense on them before Yahweh tomorrow: and it shall be that the man whom Yahweh chooses, he shall be holy. You have gone too far, you sons of Levi!"
  8. Moses said to Korah, "Hear now, you sons of Levi!
  9. Is it a small thing to you, that the God of Israel has separated you from the congregation of Israel, to bring you near to himself, to do the service of the tabernacle of Yahweh, and to stand before the congregation to minister to them;
  10. and that he has brought you near, and all your brothers the sons of Levi with you? and do you seek the priesthood also?
  11. Therefore you and all your company are gathered together against Yahweh: and Aaron, what is he that you murmur against him?"
  12. Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab; and they said, "We won't come up:
  13. is it a small thing that you have brought us up out of a land flowing with milk and honey, to kill us in the wilderness, but you must also make yourself a prince over us?
  14. Moreover you haven't brought us into a land flowing with milk and honey, nor given us inheritance of fields and vineyards: will you put out the eyes of these men? We won't come up."
  15. Moses was very angry, and said to Yahweh, "Don't respect their offering: I have not taken one donkey from them, neither have I hurt one of them."
  16. Moses said to Korah, "You and all your company go before Yahweh, you, and they, and Aaron, tomorrow:
  17. and each man take his censer, and put incense on them, and each man bring before Yahweh his censer, two hundred fifty censers; you also, and Aaron, each his censer."
  18. They each took his censer, and put fire in them, and laid incense thereon, and stood at the door of the Tent of Meeting with Moses and Aaron.
  19. Korah assembled all the congregation against them to the door of the Tent of Meeting: and the glory of Yahweh appeared to all the congregation.
  20. Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
  21. "Separate yourselves from among this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment!"
  22. They fell on their faces, and said, "God, the God of the spirits of all flesh, shall one man sin, and will you be angry with all the congregation?"
  23. Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
  24. "Speak to the congregation, saying, 'Get away from around the tent of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram!'"
  25. Moses rose up and went to Dathan and Abiram; and the elders of Israel followed him.
  26. He spoke to the congregation, saying, "Depart, please, from the tents of these wicked men, and touch nothing of theirs, lest you be consumed in all their sins!"
  27. So they went away from the tent of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram, on every side: and Dathan and Abiram came out, and stood at the door of their tents, and their wives, and their sons, and their little ones.
  28. Moses said, "Hereby you shall know that Yahweh has sent me to do all these works; for [I have] not [done them] of my own mind.
  29. If these men die the common death of all men, or if they be visited after the visitation of all men; then Yahweh hasn't sent me.
  30. But if Yahweh make a new thing, and the ground open its mouth, and swallow them up, with all that appertain to them, and they go down alive into Sheol; then you shall understand that these men have despised Yahweh."
  31. It happened, as he made an end of speaking all these words, that the ground split apart that was under them;
  32. and the earth opened its mouth, and swallowed them up, and their households, and all the men who appertained to Korah, and all their goods.
  33. So they, and all that appertained to them, went down alive into Sheol: and the earth closed on them, and they perished from among the assembly.
  34. All Israel that were around them fled at the cry of them; for they said, "Lest the earth swallow us up!"
  35. Fire came forth from Yahweh, and devoured the two hundred fifty men who offered the incense.
  36. Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
  37. "Speak to Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, that he take up the censers out of the burning, and scatter the fire yonder; for they are holy,
  38. even the censers of these sinners against their own lives; and let them be made beaten plates for a covering of the altar: for they offered them before Yahweh; therefore they are holy; and they shall be a sign to the children of Israel."
  39. Eleazar the priest took the bronze censers, which those who were burnt had offered; and they beat them out for a covering of the altar,
  40. to be a memorial to the children of Israel, to the end that no stranger, who isn't of the seed of Aaron, comes near to burn incense before Yahweh; that he not be as Korah, and as his company: as Yahweh spoke to him by Moses.
  41. But on the next day all the congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron, saying, "You have killed Yahweh's people!"
  42. It happened, when the congregation was assembled against Moses and against Aaron, that they looked toward the Tent of Meeting: and behold, the cloud covered it, and the glory of Yahweh appeared.
  43. Moses and Aaron came to the front of the Tent of Meeting.
  44. Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
  45. "Get away from among this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment!" They fell on their faces.
  46. Moses said to Aaron, "Take your censer, and put fire from off the altar in it, and lay incense on it, and carry it quickly to the congregation, and make atonement for them; for wrath has gone out from Yahweh! The plague has begun."
  47. Aaron did as Moses said, and ran into the midst of the assembly; and behold, the plague has begun among the people: and he put on the incense, and made atonement for the people.
  48. He stood between the dead and the living; and the plague was stayed.
  49. Now those who died by the plague were fourteen thousand and seven hundred, besides those who died about the matter of Korah.
  50. Aaron returned to Moses to the door of the Tent of Meeting: and the plague was stayed.
Numbers 16 Text (Hebrew)
  1. ויקח קרח בן־יצהר בן־קהת בן־לוי ודתן ואבירם בני אליאב ואון בן־פלת בני ראובן׃
  2. ויקמו לפני משה ואנשים מבני־ישראל חמשים ומאתים נשיאי עדה קראי מועד אנשי־שם׃
  3. ויקהלו על־משה ועל־אהרן ויאמרו אלהם רב־לכם כי כל־העדה כלם קדשים ובתוכם יהוה ומדוע תתנשאו על־קהל יהוה׃
  4. וישמע משה ויפל על־פניו׃
  5. וידבר אל־קרח ואל־כל־עדתו לאמר בקר וידע יהוה את־אשר־לו ואת־הקדוש והקריב אליו ואת אשר יבחר־בו יקריב אליו׃
  6. זאת עשו קחו־לכם מחתות קרח וכל־עדתו׃
  7. ותנו בהן אש ושימו עליהן קטרת לפני יהוה מחר והיה האיש אשר־יבחר יהוה הוא הקדוש רב־לכם בני לוי׃
  8. ויאמר משה אל־קרח שמעו־נא בני לוי׃
  9. המעט םכם כי־הבדיל אלהי ישראל אתכם מעדת ישראל להקריב אתכם אליו לעבד את־עבדת משכן יהוה ולעמד לפני העדה לשרתם׃
  10. ויקרב אתך ואת־כל־אחיך בני־לוי אתך ובקשתם גם־כהנה׃
  11. לכן אתה וכל־עדתך הנעדים על־יהוה ואהרן מה־הוא כי עליו׃
  12. וישלח משה לקרא לדתן ולאבירם בני אליאב ויאמרו לא נעלה׃
  13. המעט כי העליתנו מארץ זבת חלב ודבש להמיתנו במדבר כי־תשתרר עלינו גם־השתרר׃
  14. אף לא אל־ארץ זבת חלב ודבש הביאתנו ותתן־לנו נחלת שדה וכרם העיני האנשים ההם תנקר לא נעלה׃
  15. ויחר למשה מאד ויאמר אל־יהוה אל־תפן אל־מנחתם לא חמור אחד מהם נשאתי ולא הרעתי את־אחד מהם׃
  16. ויאמר משה אל־קרח אתה וכל־עדתך היו לפני יהוה אתה והם ואהרן מחר׃
  17. וקחו איש מחתתו ונתתם עליהם קטרת והקרבתם לפני יהוה איש מחתתו חמשים ומאתים מחתת ואתה ואהרן איש מחתתו׃
  18. ויקחו איש מחתתו ויתנו עליהם אש וישימו עליהם קטרת ויעמדו פתח אהל מועד ומשה ואהרן׃
  19. ויקהל עליהם קרח את־כל־העדה אל־פתח אהל מועד וירא כבוד־יהוה אל־כל־העדה׃ ף
  20. וידבר יהוה אל־משה ואל־אהרן לאמר׃
  21. הבדלו מתוך העדה הזאת ואכלה אתם כרגע׃
  22. ויפלו על־פניהם ויאמרו אל אלהי הרוחת לכל־בשר האיש אחד יחטא ועל כל־העדה תקצף׃ ף
  23. וידבר יהוה אל־משה לאמר׃
  24. דבר אל־העדה לאמר העלו מסביב למשכן־קרח דתן ואבירם׃
  25. ויקם משה וילך אל־דתן ואבירם וילכו אחריו זקני ישראל׃
  26. וידבר אל־העדה לאמר סורו נא מעל אהלי האנשים הרשעים האלה ואל־תגעו בכל־אשר להם פן־תספו בכל־חטאתם׃
  27. ויעלו מעל משכן־קרח דתן ואבירם מסביב ודתן ואבירם יצאו נצבים פתח אהליהם ונשיהם ובניהם וטפם׃
  28. ויאמר משה בזאת תדעון כי־יהוה שלחני לעשות את כל־המעשים האלה כי־לא מלבי׃
  29. אם־כמות כל־האדם ימתון אלה ופקדת כל־האדם יפקד עליהם לא יהוה שלחני׃
  30. ואם־בריאה יברא יהוה ופצתה האדמה את־פיה ובלעה אתם ואת־כל־אשר להם וירדו חיים שאלה וידעתם כי נאצו האנשים האלה את־יהוה׃
  31. ויהי ככלתו לדבר את כל־הדברים האלה ותבקע האדמה אשר תחתיהם׃
  32. ותפתח הארץ את־פיה ותבלע אתם ואת־בתיהם ואת כל־האדם אשר לקרח ואת כל־הרכוש׃
  33. וירדו הם וכל־אשר להם חיים שאלה ותכס עליהם הארץ ויאבדו מתוך הקהל׃
  34. וכל־ישראל אשר סביבתיהם נסו לקלם כי אמרו פן־תבלענו הארץ׃
  35. ואש יצאה מאת יהוה ותאכל את החמשים ומאתים איש מקריבי הקטרת׃ ף
  36. וידבר יהוה אל־משה לאמר׃
  37. אמר אל־אלעזר בן־אהרן הכהן וירם את־המחתת מבין השרפה ואת־האש זרה־הלאה כי קדשו׃
  38. את מחתות החטאים האלה בנפשתם ועשו אתם רקעי פחים צפוי למזבח כי־הקריבם לפני־יהוה ויקדשו ויהיו לאות לבני ישראל׃
  39. ויקח אלעזר הכהן את מחתות הנחשת אשר הקריבו השרפים וירקעום צפוי למזבח׃
  40. זכרון לבני ישראל למען אשר לא־יקרב איש זר אשר לא מזרע אהרן הוא להקטיר קטרת לפני יהוה ולא־יהיה כקרח וכעדתו כאשר דבר יהוה ביד־משה לו׃
  41. וילנו כל־עדת בני־ישראל ממחרת על־משה ועל־אהרן לאמר אתם המתם את־עם יהוה׃
  42. ויהי בהקהל העדה על־משה ועל־אהרן ויפנו אל־אהל מועד והנה כסהו העןן וירא כבוד יהוה׃
  43. ויבא משה ואהרן אל־פני אהל מועד׃ ף
  44. וידבר יהוה אל־משה לאמר׃
  45. הרמו מתוך העדה הזאת ואכלה אתם כרגע ויפלו על־פניהם׃
  46. ויאמר משה אל־אהרן קח את־המחתה ותן־עליה אש מעל המזבח ושים קטרת והולך מהרה אל־העדה וכפר עליהם כי־יצא הקצף מלפני יהוה החל הנגף׃
  47. ויקח אהרן כאשר דבר משה וירץ אל־תוך הקהל והנה החל הנגף בעם ויתן את־הקטרת ויכפר על־העם׃
  48. ויעמד בין־המתים ובין החיים ותעצר המגפה׃
  49. ויהיו המתים במגפה ארבעה עשר אלף ושבע מאות מלבד המתים על־דבר־קרח׃
  50. וישב אהרן אל־משה אל־פתח אהל מועד והמגפה נעצרה׃ ף
Numbers 16 Text (Greek)
  1. και ελαλησεν κορε υιος ισσααρ υιου κααθ υιου λευι και δαθαν και αβιρων υιοι ελιαβ και αυν υιος φαλεθ υιου
  2. και ανεστησαν εναντι μωυση και ανδρες των υιων ισραηλ πεντηκοντα και διακοσιοι αρχηγοι συναγωγης συγκλητοι βουλης και ανδρες
  3. συνεστησαν επι μωυσην και ααρων και ειπαν εχετω υμιν οτι πασα η συναγωγη παντες αγιοι και εν αυτοις κυριος και δια τι κατανιστασθε επι την συναγωγην
  4. και ακουσας μωυσης επεσεν επι
  5. και ελαλησεν προς κορε και προς πασαν αυτου την συναγωγην λεγων επεσκεπται και εγνω ο θεος τους οντας αυτου και τους αγιους και προσηγαγετο προς εαυτον και ους εξελεξατο εαυτω προσηγαγετο προς
  6. τουτο ποιησατε λαβετε υμιν αυτοις πυρεια κορε και πασα η συναγωγη

  8. και ειπεν μωυσης προς κορε εισακουσατε μου υιοι
  9. μη μικρον εστιν τουτο υμιν οτι διεστειλεν ο θεος ισραηλ υμας εκ συναγωγης ισραηλ και προσηγαγετο υμας προς εαυτον λειτουργειν τας λειτουργιας της σκηνης κυριου και παριστασθαι εναντι της συναγωγης λατρευειν
  10. και προσηγαγετο σε και παντας τους αδελφους σου υιους λευι μετα σου και ζητειτε
  11. ουτως συ και πασα η συναγωγη σου η συνηθροισμενη προς τον θεον και ααρων τις εστιν οτι διαγογγυζετε κατ'

  13. μη μικρον τουτο οτι ανηγαγες ημας εκ γης ρεουσης γαλα και μελι αποκτειναι ημας εν τη ερημω οτι καταρχεις ημων
  14. ει και εις γην ρεουσαν γαλα και μελι εισηγαγες ημας και εδωκας ημιν κληρον αγρου και αμπελωνας τους οφθαλμους των ανθρωπων εκεινων αν εξεκοψας ουκ
  15. και εβαρυθυμησεν μωυσης σφοδρα και ειπεν προς κυριον μη προσχης εις την θυσιαν αυτων ουκ επιθυμημα ουδενος αυτων ειληφα ουδε εκακωσα ουδενα
  16. και ειπεν μωυσης προς κορε αγιασον την συναγωγην σου και γινεσθε ετοιμοι εναντι κυριου συ και αυτοι και ααρων
  17. και λαβετε εκαστος το πυρειον αυτου και επιθησετε επ' αυτα θυμιαμα και προσαξετε εναντι κυριου εκαστος το πυρειον αυτου πεντηκοντα και διακοσια πυρεια και συ και ααρων εκαστος το πυρειον
  18. και ελαβεν εκαστος το πυρειον αυτου και επεθηκαν επ' αυτα πυρ και επεβαλον επ' αυτο θυμιαμα και εστησαν παρα τας θυρας της σκηνης του μαρτυριου μωυσης και
  19. και επισυνεστησεν επ' αυτους κορε την πασαν αυτου συναγωγην παρα την θυραν της σκηνης του μαρτυριου και ωφθη η δοξα κυριου παση τη
  20. και ελαλησεν κυριος προς μωυσην και ααρων
  21. αποσχισθητε εκ μεσου της συναγωγης ταυτης και εξαναλωσω αυτους εις
  22. και επεσαν επι προσωπον αυτων και ειπαν θεος θεος των πνευματων και πασης σαρκος ει ανθρωπος εις ημαρτεν επι πασαν την συναγωγην οργη
  23. και ελαλησεν κυριος προς μωυσην
  24. λαλησον τη συναγωγη λεγων αναχωρησατε κυκλω απο της συναγωγης
  25. και ανεστη μωυσης και επορευθη προς δαθαν και αβιρων και συνεπορευθησαν μετ' αυτου παντες οι πρεσβυτεροι
  26. και ελαλησεν προς την συναγωγην λεγων αποσχισθητε απο των σκηνων των ανθρωπων των σκληρων τουτων και μη απτεσθε απο παντων ων εστιν αυτοις μη συναπολησθε εν παση τη αμαρτια
  27. και απεστησαν απο της σκηνης κορε κυκλω και δαθαν και αβιρων εξηλθον και ειστηκεισαν παρα τας θυρας των σκηνων αυτων και αι γυναικες αυτων και τα τεκνα αυτων και η αποσκευη
  28. και ειπεν μωυσης εν τουτω γνωσεσθε οτι κυριος απεστειλεν με ποιησαι παντα τα εργα ταυτα οτι ουκ απ'

Numbers 16 Text (Latin)
  1. Ecce autem Core filius Isaar, filii Caath, filii Levi, et Dathan atque Abiron filii Eliab, Hon quoque filius Pheleth de filiis Ruben,
  2. surrexerunt contra Moysen, aliique filiorum Israël ducenti quinquaginta viri proceres synagogæ, et qui tempore concilii per nomina vocabantur.
  3. Cumque stetissent adversum Moysen et Aaron, dixerunt : Sufficiat vobis, quia omnis multitudo sanctorum est, et in ipsis est Dominus : cur elevamini super populum Domini ?
  4. Quod cum audisset Moyses, cecidit pronus in faciem :
  5. locutusque ad Core et ad omnem multitudinem : Mane, inquit, notum faciet Dominus qui ad se pertineant, et sanctos applicabit sibi : et quos elegerit, appropinquabunt ei.
  6. Hoc igitur facite : tollat unusquisque thuribula sua, tu Core, et omne concilium tuum :
  7. et hausto cras igne, ponite desuper thymiama coram Domino : et quemcumque elegerit, ipse erit sanctus : multum erigimini filii Levi.
  8. Dixitque rursum ad Core : Audite, filii Levi :
  9. num parum vobis est quod separavit vos Deus Israël ab omni populo, et junxit sibi, ut serviretis ei in cultu tabernaculi, et staretis coram frequentia populi, et ministraretis ei ?
  10. idcirco ad se fecit accedere te et omnes fratres tuos filios Levi, ut vobis etiam sacerdotium vindicetis,
  11. et omnis globus tuus stet contra Dominum ? quid est enim Aaron ut murmuretis contra eum ?
  12. Misit ergo Moyses ut vocaret Dathan et Abiron filios Eliab. Qui responderunt : Non venimus.
  13. Numquid parum est tibi quod eduxisti nos de terra, quæ lacte et melle manabat, ut occideres in deserto, nisi et dominatus fueris nostri ?
  14. Revera induxisti nos in terram, quæ fluit rivis lactis et mellis, et dedisti nobis possessiones agrorum et vinearum : an et oculos nostros vis eruere ? non venimus.
  15. Iratusque Moyses valde, ait ad Dominum : Ne respicias sacrificia eorum : tu scis quod ne asellum quidem umquam acceperim ab eis, nec afflixerim quempiam eorum.
  16. Dixitque ad Core : Tu, et omnis congregatio tua, state seorsum coram Domino, et Aaron die crastino separatim.
  17. Tollite singuli thuribula vestra, et ponite super ea incensum, offerentes Domino ducenta quinquaginta thuribula : Aaron quoque teneat thuribulum suum.
  18. Quod cum fecissent, stantibus Moyses et Aaron,
  19. et coacervassent adversum eos omnem multitudinem ad ostium tabernaculi, apparuit cunctis gloria Domini.
  20. Locutusque Dominus ad Moysen et Aaron, ait :
  21. Separamini de medio congregationis hujus, ut eos repente disperdam.
  22. Qui ceciderunt proni in faciem, atque dixerunt : Fortissime Deus spirituum universæ carnis, num uno peccante, contra omnes ira tua desæviet ?
  23. Et ait Dominus ad Moysen :
  24. Præcipe universo populo ut separetur a tabernaculis Core et Dathan et Abiron.
  25. Surrexitque Moyses, et abiit ad Dathan et Abiron : et sequentibus eum senioribus Israël,
  26. dixit ad turbam : Recedite a tabernaculis hominum impiorum, et nolite tangere quæ ad eos pertinent, ne involvamini in peccatis eorum.
  27. Cumque recessissent a tentoriis eorum per circuitum, Dathan et Abiron egressi stabant in introitu papilionum suorum cum uxoribus et liberis, omnique frequentia.
  28. Et ait Moyses : In hoc scietis quod Dominus miserit me ut facerem universa quæ cernitis, et non ex proprio ea corde protulerim :
  29. si consueta hominum morte interierint, et visitaverit eos plaga, qua et ceteri visitari solent, non misit me Dominus :
  30. sin autem novam rem fecerit Dominus, ut aperiens terra os suum deglutiat eos et omnia quæ ad illos pertinent, descenderintque viventes in infernum, scietis quod blasphemaverint Dominum.
  31. Confestim igitur ut cessavit loqui, dirupta est terra sub pedibus eorum :
  32. et aperiens os suum, devoravit illos cum tabernaculis suis et universa substantia eorum,
  33. descenderuntque vivi in infernum operti humo, et perierunt de medio multitudinis.
  34. At vero omnis Israël, qui stabat per gyrum, fugit ad clamorem pereuntium, dicens : Ne forte et nos terra deglutiat.
  35. Sed et ignis egressus a Domino interfecit ducentos quinquaginta viros, qui offerebant incensum.
  36. Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens :
  37. Præcipe Eleazaro filio Aaron sacerdoti ut tollat thuribula quæ jacent in incendio, et ignem huc illucque dispergat : quoniam sanctificata sunt
  38. in mortibus peccatorum : producatque ea in laminas, et affigat altari, eo quod oblatum sit in eis incensum Domino, et sanctificata sint, ut cernant ea pro signo et monimento filii Israël.
  39. Tulit ergo Eleazar sacerdos thuribula ænea, in quibus obtulerant hi quos incendium devoravit, et produxit ea in laminas, affigens altari :
  40. ut haberent postea filii Israël, quibus commonerentur ne quis accedat alienigena, et qui non est de semine Aaron ad offerendum incensum Domino, ne patiatur sicut passus est Core, et omnis congregatio ejus, loquente Domino ad Moysen.
  41. Murmuravit autem omnis multitudo filiorum Israël sequenti die contra Moysen et Aaron, dicens : Vos interfecistis populum Domini.
  42. Cumque oriretur seditio, et tumultus incresceret,
  43. Moyses et Aaron fugerunt ad tabernaculum fœderis. Quod, postquam ingressi sunt, operuit nubes, et apparuit gloria Domini.
  44. Dixitque Dominus ad Moysen :
  45. Recedite de medio hujus multitudinis, etiam nunc delebo eos. Cumque jacerent in terra,
  46. dixit Moyses ad Aaron : Tolle thuribulum, et hausto igne de altari, mitte incensum desuper, pergens cito ad populum, ut roges pro eis : jam enim egressa est ira a Domino, et plaga desævit.
  47. Quod cum fecisset Aaron, et cucurrisset ad mediam multitudinem, quam jam vastabat incendium, obtulit thymiama :
  48. et stans inter mortuos ac viventes, pro populo deprecatus est, et plaga cessavit.
  49. Fuerunt autem qui percussi sunt, quatuordecim millia hominum, et septingenti, absque his qui perierant in seditione Core.
  50. Reversusque est Aaron ad Moysen ad ostium tabernaculi fœderis postquam quievit interitus.
Numbers 16 Text (KJV)
  1. Now Korah, the son of Izhar, the son of Kohath, the son of Levi, and Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, and On, the son of Peleth, sons of Reuben, took men:
  2. And they rose up before Moses, with certain of the children of Israel, two hundred and fifty princes of the assembly, famous in the congregation, men of renown:
  3. And they gathered themselves together against Moses and against Aaron, and said unto them, Ye take too much upon you, seeing all the congregation are holy, every one of them, and the LORD is among them: wherefore then lift ye up yourselves above the congregation of the LORD?
  4. And when Moses heard it, he fell upon his face:
  5. And he spake unto Korah and unto all his company, saying, Even to morrow the LORD will shew who are his, and who is holy; and will cause him to come near unto him: even him whom he hath chosen will he cause to come near unto him.
  6. This do; Take you censers, Korah, and all his company;
  7. And put fire therein, and put incense in them before the LORD to morrow: and it shall be that the man whom the LORD doth choose, he shall be holy: ye take too much upon you, ye sons of Levi.
  8. And Moses said unto Korah, Hear, I pray you, ye sons of Levi:
  9. Seemeth it but a small thing unto you, that the God of Israel hath separated you from the congregation of Israel, to bring you near to himself to do the service of the tabernacle of the LORD, and to stand before the congregation to minister unto them?
  10. And he hath brought thee near to him, and all thy brethren the sons of Levi with thee: and seek ye the priesthood also?
  11. For which cause both thou and all thy company are gathered together against the LORD: and what is Aaron, that ye murmur against him?
  12. And Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab: which said, We will not come up:
  13. Is it a small thing that thou hast brought us up out of a land that floweth with milk and honey, to kill us in the wilderness, except thou make thyself altogether a prince over us?
  14. Moreover thou hast not brought us into a land that floweth with milk and honey, or given us inheritance of fields and vineyards: wilt thou put out the eyes of these men? we will not come up.
  15. And Moses was very wroth, and said unto the LORD, Respect not thou their offering: I have not taken one ass from them, neither have I hurt one of them.
  16. And Moses said unto Korah, Be thou and all thy company before the LORD, thou, and they, and Aaron, to morrow:
  17. And take every man his censer, and put incense in them, and bring ye before the LORD every man his censer, two hundred and fifty censers; thou also, and Aaron, each of you his censer.
  18. And they took every man his censer, and put fire in them, and laid incense thereon, and stood in the door of the tabernacle of the congregation with Moses and Aaron.
  19. And Korah gathered all the congregation against them unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation: and the glory of the LORD appeared unto all the congregation.
  20. And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,
  21. Separate yourselves from among this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment.
  22. And they fell upon their faces, and said, O God, the God of the spirits of all flesh, shall one man sin, and wilt thou be wroth with all the congregation?
  23. And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
  24. Speak unto the congregation, saying, Get you up from about the tabernacle of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram.
  25. And Moses rose up and went unto Dathan and Abiram; and the elders of Israel followed him.
  26. And he spake unto the congregation, saying, Depart, I pray you, from the tents of these wicked men, and touch nothing of theirs, lest ye be consumed in all their sins.
  27. So they gat up from the tabernacle of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram, on every side: and Dathan and Abiram came out, and stood in the door of their tents, and their wives, and their sons, and their little children.
  28. And Moses said, Hereby ye shall know that the LORD hath sent me to do all these works; for I have not done them of mine own mind.
  29. If these men die the common death of all men, or if they be visited after the visitation of all men; then the LORD hath not sent me.
  30. But if the LORD make a new thing, and the earth open her mouth, and swallow them up, with all that appertain unto them, and they go down quick into the pit; then ye shall understand that these men have provoked the LORD.
  31. And it came to pass, as he had made an end of speaking all these words, that the ground clave asunder that was under them:
  32. And the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up, and their houses, and all the men that appertained unto Korah, and all their goods.
  33. They, and all that appertained to them, went down alive into the pit, and the earth closed upon them: and they perished from among the congregation.
  34. And all Israel that were round about them fled at the cry of them: for they said, Lest the earth swallow us up also.
  35. And there came out a fire from the LORD, and consumed the two hundred and fifty men that offered incense.
  36. And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
  37. Speak unto Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, that he take up the censers out of the burning, and scatter thou the fire yonder; for they are hallowed.
  38. The censers of these sinners against their own souls, let them make them broad plates for a covering of the altar: for they offered them before the LORD, therefore they are hallowed: and they shall be a sign unto the children of Israel.
  39. And Eleazar the priest took the brasen censers, wherewith they that were burnt had offered; and they were made broad plates for a covering of the altar:
  40. To be a memorial unto the children of Israel, that no stranger, which is not of the seed of Aaron, come near to offer incense before the LORD; that he be not as Korah, and as his company: as the LORD said to him by the hand of Moses.
  41. But on the morrow all the congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron, saying, Ye have killed the people of the LORD.
  42. And it came to pass, when the congregation was gathered against Moses and against Aaron, that they looked toward the tabernacle of the congregation: and, behold, the cloud covered it, and the glory of the LORD appeared.
  43. And Moses and Aaron came before the tabernacle of the congregation.
  44. And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
  45. Get you up from among this congregation, that I may consume them as in a moment. And they fell upon their faces.
  46. And Moses said unto Aaron, Take a censer, and put fire therein from off the altar, and put on incense, and go quickly unto the congregation, and make an atonement for them: for there is wrath gone out from the LORD; the plague is begun.
  47. And Aaron took as Moses commanded, and ran into the midst of the congregation; and, behold, the plague was begun among the people: and he put on incense, and made an atonement for the people.
  48. And he stood between the dead and the living; and the plague was stayed.
  49. Now they that died in the plague were fourteen thousand and seven hundred, beside them that died about the matter of Korah.
  50. And Aaron returned unto Moses unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation: and the plague was stayed.
