* Now Korah , the son of Izhar , the son of Kohath , the son of Levi , and Dathan and Abiram , the sons of Eliab #Eliy #ab #, and On , the son of Peleth , sons of Reuben R @#uwben #, took men : * And they rose up before Moses , with certain of the children of Israel Yisra #el #, two hundred and fifty princes of the assembly , famous in the congregation mow #ed #, men of renown : * 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 ? * And when Moses heard it , he fell upon his face : * 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 . * This do ; Take you censers , Korah , and all his company ; * 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 . * And Moses said unto Korah , Hear , I pray you , ye sons of Levi : * Seemeth it but a small thing unto you , that the God of Israel hath separated you from the congregation of Israel Yisra #el #, 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 ? * And he hath brought thee near to him , and all thy brethren the sons of Levi with thee : and seek ye the priesthood also ? * For which cause both thou and all thy company are gathered together against the LORD : and what is Aaron , that ye murmur (8675 ) against him ? * And Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram , the sons of Eliab #Eliy #ab #: which said , We will not come up : * 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 ? * 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 . * 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 . * And Moses said unto Korah , Be thou and all thy company before the LORD , thou , and they , and Aaron , to morrow : * 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 .
