Numbers 16:9-24

⁹Is it a little thing with you that the God of Israel hath separated you from the congregation of Israel to bring you near before Him to perform the service of the Lord’s tabernacle, and to stand before the congregation to minister to them?

¹⁰But He hath brought thee nigh, and all thy brethren the sons of Levi with thee: and seek you now the High Priesthood also?

¹¹Therefore thou and all thy company have gathered together against the Lord. And Aharon, what is he, that you murmur against him?

¹²And Mosheh, sent to call Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab; but they said, We will not come up.

¹³Is it a trifle that thou hast brought us from a land making milk and honey to kill us in the desert, that thou mayest domineer and rule over us?

¹⁴Neither hast thou brought us into the land that maketh milk and honey, to give us an inheritance of fields and vineyards: wilt thou blind the eyes of these men? We will not come up.

¹⁵And Mosheh was greatly angered, and said before the Lord, Receive not Thou their offering: I have not taken one ass from them, neither have I injured one of them.

¹⁶And Mosheh said to Korach, Be thou and all thy company prepared before the Lord, thou and they and Aharon tomorrow.

¹⁷And take every man his censer, and put sweet incense upon them, each man to offer before the Lord (with) his censer.

¹⁸And they took every man his censer, and set fire in it, and put sweet incense thereon, and stood at the door of the tabernacle of ordinance, with Mosheh and Aharon.

¹⁹And Korach assembled with him all the company at the door of the tabernacle of ordinance. And the glory of the Lord was revealed to all the congregation.

²⁰And the Lord spake with Mosheh and to Aharon, saying:

²¹Separate yourselves from among this company, and I will consume them at once.

²²But they fell upon their faces, and said, O God, the God of the spirits of all flesh, shall one man sin, and thou be wroth with all the congregation?

²³And the Lord spake with Mosheh, saying:

²⁴Speak with the congregation, saying: Get you up from among the tents of Korach, Dathan, and Abiram.
