Numbers 16
1 And he took Korah [the] son of Izhar [the] son of Kohath [the] son of Levi and Dathan and Abiram [the] sons of Eliab and On [the] son of Peleth [the] sons of Reuben.
Now Korah, the son of Izhar, the son of Kohath, the son of Levi, and Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, and On, the son of Peleth, sons of Reuben, took men:
2 And they rose up before Moses and men from [the] people of Israel fifty and two hundred leaders of [the] congregation called of [the] appointed meeting men of name.
And they rose up before Moses, with certain of the children of Israel, two hundred and fifty princes of the assembly, famous in the congregation, men of renown:
3 And they assembled on Moses and on Aaron and they said to them enough for you that all the congregation all of them [are] holy and [is] among midst of them Yahweh and why? do you exalt yourselves over [the] assembly of Yahweh.
And they gathered themselves together against Moses and against Aaron, and said unto them, All of you take too much upon you, seeing all the congregation are holy, every one of them, and the LORD is among them: wherefore then lift all of you up yourselves above the congregation of the LORD?
4 And he heard Moses and he fell on face his.
And when Moses heard it, he fell upon his face:
5 And he spoke to Korah and to all company his saying morning and he will make known Yahweh [the one] who [belongs] to him and the holy [person] and he will bring [him] near to himself and [the one] whom he will choose him he will bring near to himself.
And he spoke unto Korah and unto all his company, saying, Even tomorrow the LORD will show who are his, and who is holy; and will cause him to come near unto him: even him whom he has chosen will he cause to come near unto him.
6 This do take for yourselves censers O Korah and all company his.
This do; Take you censers, Korah, and all his company;
7 And put in them - fire and set on them incense before Yahweh tomorrow and it will be the man whom he will choose Yahweh he [will be] the holy [person] enough for you O descendants of Levi.
And put fire therein, and put incense in them before the LORD tomorrow: and it shall be that the man whom the LORD does choose, he shall be holy: all of you take too much upon you, all of you sons of Levi.
8 And he said Moses to Korah listen please O descendants of Levi.
And Moses said unto Korah, Hear, I pray you, all of you sons of Levi:
9 ¿ [is it too] small For you that he has set apart [the] God of Israel you from [the] congregation of Israel to bring near you to himself to serve [the] service of [the] tabernacle of Yahweh and to stand before the congregation to serve them.
Seems it but a small thing unto you, that the God of Israel has separated you from the congregation of Israel, 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?
10 And he has brought near you and all brothers your [the] descendants of Levi with you but you seek also priesthood.
And he has brought you near to him, and all your brethren the sons of Levi with you: and seek all of you the priesthood also?
11 Therefore you and all company your [are] the [ones who] have gathered on Yahweh and Aaron what? [is] he that (you will cause to grumble *QK) on him.
For which cause both you and all your company are gathered together against the LORD: and what is Aaron, that all of you murmur against him?
12 And he sent Moses to summon Dathan and Abiram [the] sons of Eliab and they said not we will come up.
And Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab: which said, We will not come up:
13 ¿ [is it] small That you have brought up us from a land flowing of milk and honey to kill us in the wilderness that you will make yourself ruler over us also really.
Is it a small thing that you have brought us up out of a land that flows with milk and honey, to kill us in the wilderness, except you make yourself altogether a prince over us?
14 Also not into a land flowing of milk and honey you have brought us and you have given to us an inheritance of field and vineyard ¿ [the] eyes of the men those will you put out not we will come up.
Moreover you have not brought us into a land that flows with milk and honey, or given us inheritance of fields and vineyards: will you put out the eyes of these men? we will not come up.
15 And it burned to Moses exceedingly and he said to Yahweh may not you turn to offering their not a donkey one from them I have taken and not I have done harm to one of them.
And Moses was very angry, and said unto the LORD, Respect not you their offering: I have not taken one ass from them, neither have I hurt one of them.
16 And he said Moses to Korah you and all company your be before Yahweh you and they and Aaron tomorrow.
And Moses said unto Korah, Be you and all your company before the LORD, you, and they, and Aaron, tomorrow:
17 And take - each one censer his and you will put on them incense and you will bring near before Yahweh each one censer his fifty and two hundred censers and you and Aaron each one censer his.
And take every man his censer, and put incense in them, and bring all of you before the LORD every man his censer, two hundred and fifty censers; you also, and Aaron, each of you his censer.
18 And they took each one censer his and they put on them fire and they set on them incense and they stood [the] entrance of [the] tent of meeting and Moses and Aaron.
And they took every man his censer, and put fire in them, and laid incense thereon, and stood in the door of the tabernacle of the congregation with Moses and Aaron.
19 And he called together on them Korah all the congregation to [the] entrance of [the] tent of meeting and it appeared [the] glory of Yahweh to all the congregation.
And Korah gathered all the congregation against them unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation: and the glory of the LORD appeared unto all the congregation.
20 And he spoke Yahweh to Moses and to Aaron saying.
And the LORD spoke unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,
21 Separate yourselves from among the congregation this so I may consume them like a moment.
Separate yourselves from among this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment.
22 And they fell on faces their and they said O God [the] God of the spirits of all flesh ¿ a man one will he sin and towards all the congregation will you be angry?
And they fell upon their faces, and said, O God, the God of the spirits of all flesh, shall one man sin, and will you be angry with all the congregation?
23 And he spoke Yahweh to Moses saying.
And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,
24 Speak to the congregation saying take yourselves up from round about [the] dwelling place of Korah Dathan and Abiram.
Speak unto the congregation, saying, Get you up from about the tabernacle of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram.
25 And he arose Moses and he went to Dathan and Abiram and they went after him [the] elders of Israel.
And Moses rose up and went unto Dathan and Abiram; and the elders of Israel followed him.
26 And he spoke to the congregation saying turn away please from at [the] tents of the men wicked these and may not you touch all that [belongs] to them lest you should be swept away with all sins their.
And he spoke unto the congregation, saying, Depart, I pray you, from the tents of these wicked men, and touch nothing of their's, lest all of you be consumed in all their sins.
27 And they took themselves up from at [the] dwelling place of Korah Dathan and Abiram from all around and Dathan and Abiram they came out standing [the] entrance of tents their and wives their and sons their and little one[s] their.
So they got 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.
28 And he said Moses by this you will know! that Yahweh he has sent me to do all the works these for not from own heart my.
And Moses said, Hereby all of you shall know that the LORD has sent me to do all these works; for I have not done them of mine own mind.
29 If like [the] death of every human they will die! these [men] and [the] visitation of every human it will be visited on them not Yahweh he has sent me.
If these men die the common death of all men, or if they be visited after the visitation of all men; then the LORD has not sent me.
30 And if a creation he will create Yahweh and it will open the ground mouth its and it will swallow them and all that [belongs] to them and they will go down alive Sheol towards and you will know that they have spurned the men these Yahweh. (Sheol h7585)
But if the LORD make a new thing, and the earth open her mouth, and swallow them up, with all that appertain unto them, and they go down quick into the pit; then all of you shall understand that these men have provoked the LORD. (Sheol h7585)
31 And it was when finished he to speak all the words these and it was split open the ground which [was] under them.
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:
32 And it opened the earth mouth its and it swallowed them and households their and every person who [belonged] to Korah and all the property.
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.
33 And they went down they and all that [belonged] to them alive Sheol towards and it covered over them the earth and they perished from among the assembly. (Sheol h7585)
They, and all that appertained to them, went down alive into the pit, and the earth closed upon them: and they perished from among the congregation. (Sheol h7585)
34 And all Israel which [was] around them they fled to voice their for they said lest it should swallow us the earth.
And all Israel that were round about them fled at the cry of them: for they said, Lest the earth swallow us up also.
35 And fire it came forth from with Yahweh and it consumed the fifty and two hundred man [who] were bringing near the incense.
And there came out a fire from the LORD, and consumed the two hundred and fifty men that offered incense.
36 And he spoke Yahweh to Moses saying.
And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,
37 Speak to Eleazar [the] son of Aaron the priest so may he take up the censers from between the burning and the fire scatter beyond for they are holy.
Speak unto Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, that he take up the censers out of the burning, and scatter you the fire yonder; for they are hallowed.
38 [the] censers of The sinners these by lives their and people will make them beaten out of thin plates overlay for the altar for they brought near them before Yahweh and they became holy and they may become a sign for [the] people of Israel.
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.
39 And he took Eleazar the priest [the] censers of bronze which they had brought near the [ones who] were burned and people beat out them overlay for the altar.
And Eleazar the priest took the brazen censers, wherewith they that were burnt had offered; and they were made broad plates for a covering of the altar:
40 A reminder to [the] people of Israel so that that not he may draw near a man strange who not [is] one of [the] offspring of Aaron he to make smoke incense before Yahweh and not he will be like Korah and like company his just as he had spoken Yahweh by [the] hand of Moses to him.
To be a memorial unto the children of Israel, that no stranger, 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.
41 And they grumbled all [the] congregation of [the] people of Israel from [the] next day on Moses and on Aaron saying you you have killed [the] people of Yahweh.
But on the next day all the congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron, saying, All of you have killed the people of the LORD.
42 And it was when assembled the congregation on Moses and on Aaron and they turned to [the] tent of meeting and there! it covered it the cloud and it appeared [the] glory of Yahweh.
And it came to pass, when the congregation was gathered against Moses and against Aaron, that they looked toward the tabernacle of the congregation: and, behold, the cloud covered it, and the glory of the LORD appeared.
43 And he came Moses and Aaron to [the] face of [the] tent of meeting.
And Moses and Aaron came before the tabernacle of the congregation.
44 And he spoke Yahweh to Moses saying.
And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,
45 Get away from among the congregation this so I may make an end of them like a moment and they fell on faces their.
Get you up from among this congregation, that I may consume them as in a moment. And they fell upon their faces.
46 And he said Moses to Aaron take the censer and put on it fire from on the altar and set incense and take [it] quickly to the congregation and make atonement on them for it has gone forth wrath from to before Yahweh it has begun the plague.
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.
47 And he took [it] Aaron just as - he had said Moses and he ran into [the] middle of the assembly and there! it had begun the plague among the people and he put the incense and he made atonement on the people.
And Aaron took as Moses commanded, and ran into the midst of the congregation; and, behold, the plague was begun among the people: and he put on incense, and made an atonement for the people.
48 And he stood between the dead and between the living and it was restrained the plague.
And he stood between the dead and the living; and the plague was stayed.
49 And they were those [who] died by the plague four-teen thousand and seven hundred besides the [ones who] died on [the] matter of Korah.
Now they that died in the plague were fourteen thousand and seven hundred, beside them that died about the matter of Korah.
50 And he returned Aaron to Moses to [the] entrance of [the] tent of meeting and the plague it had been restrained.
And Aaron returned unto Moses unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation: and the plague was stayed.
