Numbers 16:2-12

²and rose up before Moses, and two hundred and fifty men of the sons of Israel, chiefs of the assembly, chosen councillors, and men of renown.

³They rose up against Moses and Aaron, and said, Let it be enough for you that all the congregation are holy, and the Lord is amongst them; and why do you° set up yourselves against the congregation of the Lord?

⁴And when Moses heard it, he fell on his face.

⁵And he spoke to Core and all his assembly, saying, God has visited and known those that are his and who are holy, and has brought them to himself; and whom he has chosen for himself, he has brought to himself.

⁶This do you°: take to yourselves censers, Core and all his company;

⁷and put fire on them, and put incense on them before the Lord to-morrow; and it shall come to pass that the man whom the Lord has chosen, he shall be holy: let it be enough for you, you° sons of Levi.

⁸And Moses said to Core, Listen to me, you° sons of Levi.

⁹Is it a little thing for you, that the God of Israel has separated you from the congregation of Israel, and brought you near to himself to minister in the services of the tabernacle of the Lord, and to stand before the tabernacle to minister for them?

¹⁰And he has brought you near and all your brethren the sons of Levi with you, and do you° seek to be priests also?

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.
