11Thus it is with you and all your congregation which is gathered together against God: and who is Aaron, that you° murmur against him?
12And Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiron sons of Eliab; and they said, We will not go up.
13Is it a little thing that you have brought us up to a land flowing with milk and honey, to kill us in the wilderness, and that you altogether rule over us?
14You are a prince, and have you brought us into a land flowing with milk and honey, and have you given us an inheritance of land and vineyards? would you have put out the eyes of those men? we will not go up.
15And Moses was exceeding indignant, and said to the Lord, Do you take no heed to their sacrifice: I have not taken away the desire of any one of them, neither have I hurt any one of them.
16And Moses said to Core, Sanctify your company, and be ready before the Lord, you and Aaron and they, to-morrow.
17And take each man his censer, and you° shall put incense upon them, and shall bring each one his censer before the Lord, two hundred and fifty censers, and you and Aaron shall bring each his censer.
18And each man took his censer, and they put on them fire, and laid incense on them; and Moses and Aaron stood by the doors of the tabernacle of witness.
19And Core raised up against them all his company by the door of the tabernacle of witness; and the glory of the Lord appeared to all the congregation.
20And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying,
21Separate your selves from the midst of this congregation, and I will consume them at once.
22And they fell on their faces, and said, O God, the God of spirits and of all flesh, if one man has sinned, shall the wrath of the Lord be upon the whole congregation?
23And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
24Speak to the congregation, saying, Depart from the company of Core round about.
25And Moses rose up and went to Dathan and Abiron, and all the elders of Israel went with him.
26And he spoke to the congregation, saying, Separate yourselves from the tents of these stubborn men, and touch nothing that belongs to them, lest you° be consumed with them in all their sin.
27And they stood aloof from the tent of Core round about; and Dathan and Abiron went forth and stood by the doors of their tents, and their wives and their children and their store.
28And Moses said, Hereby shall you° know that the Lord has sent me to perform all these works, that I have not done them of myself.
29If these men shall die according to the death of all men, if also their visitation shall be according to the visitation of all men, then the Lord has not sent me.
30But if the Lord shall show by a wonder, and the earth shall open her mouth and swallow them up, and their houses, and their tents, and all that belongs to them, and they shall go down alive into Hades, then you° shall know that these men have provoked the Lord.
31And when he ceased speaking all these words, the ground clave asunder beneath them.
32And the ground opened, and swallowed them up, and their houses, and all the men that were with Core, and their cattle.
33And they went down and all that they had, alive into Hades; and the ground covered them, and they perished from the midst of the congregation.
34And all Israel round about them fled from the sound of them, for they said, Lest the earth swallow us up also.
35And fire went forth from the Lord, and devoured the two hundred and fifty men that offered incense.
