*
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 ?
*
And the LORD spake unto Moses ,
saying ,
*
Speak unto the congregation ,
saying ,
Get you up from about the tabernacle of Korah ,
Dathan ,
and Abiram .
*
And Moses rose up and went unto Dathan and Abiram ;
and the elders of Israel followed him .
*
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 chatta #
ah #.
*
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 .
*
And Moses said ,
Hereby ye shall know that the LORD hath sent me to do all these works ma #
aseh #;
for I have not done them of mine own mind .
*
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 .
*
But if the LORD make a new thing b @
riy #
ah #,
and the earth open her mouth ,
and swallow them up ,
with all that appertain unto them ,
and they go down quick into the pit sh @#
owl #;
then ye shall understand that these men have provoked the LORD .
*
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 :
*
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 .
*
They ,
and all that appertained to them ,
went down alive into the pit sh @#
owl #,
and the earth closed upon them :
and they perished from among the congregation .
*
And all Israel that were round about them fled at the cry of them :
for they said ,
Lest the earth swallow us up also .
*
And there came out a fire from the LORD ,
and consumed the two hundred and fifty men that offered incense .
*
And the LORD spake unto Moses ,
saying ,
*
Speak unto Eleazar #
El #
azar #
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 .
*
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 Yisra #
el #.
*
And Eleazar #
El #
azar #
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 :
*
To be a memorial unto the children of Israel Yisra #
el #,
that #

H2114 ,
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 .
*
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 .
*
And it came to pass ,
when the congregation was gathered against Moses and against Aaron ,
that they looked toward the tabernacle of the congregation mow #
ed #:
and ,
behold ,
the cloud covered it ,
and the glory of the LORD appeared .
*
And Moses and Aaron came before the tabernacle of the congregation mow #
ed #.
*
And the LORD spake unto Moses ,
saying ,
*
Get you up from among this congregation ,
that I may consume them as in a moment .
And they fell upon their faces .
*
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 .
