ISA-11:9 ...for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD,

as the waters cover the sea.

Copyright (c) 1985-2007

NU-16:1 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]:

NU-16:2 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:

NU-16:3 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?

NU-16:4 And when Moses heard [it], he fell upon his face:

NU-16:5 And he spake unto Korah and unto all his company,

saying, Even to

morrow the LORD will show 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.

NU-16:6 This do; Take you censers, Korah, and all his company;

NU-16:7 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.

NU-16:8 And Moses said unto Korah, Hear, I pray you, ye sons of

Levi:

NU-16:9 [Seemeth it but] a small thing unto you, that the God

of Israel hath

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?

NU-16:10 And he hath brought thee near [to him], and all thy

brethren the

sons of Levi with thee: and seek ye the priesthood also?

NU-16:11 For which cause [both] thou and all thy company [are]

gathered

together against the LORD: and what [is] Aaron, that ye murmur

against him?

NU-16:12 And Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram, the sons of

Eliab: which

said, We will not come up:

NU-16:13 [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?

NU-16:14 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.

NU-16:15 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.

NU-16:16 And Moses said unto Korah, Be thou and all thy company

before the

LORD, thou, and they, and Aaron, to morrow:

NU-16:17 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.

NU-16:18 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.

NU-16:19 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.

NU-16:20 And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,

NU-16:21 Separate yourselves from among this congregation, that

I may consume

them in a moment.

NU-16:22 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?

NU-16:23 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

NU-16:24 Speak unto the congregation, saying, Get you up from

about the

tabernacle of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram.

NU-16:25 And Moses rose up and went unto Dathan and Abiram; and

the elders of

Israel followed him.

NU-16:26 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.

NU-16:27 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.

NU-16:28 And Moses said, Hereby ye shall know that the LORD

hath sent me to

do all these works; for [I have] not [done them] of mine own

mind.

NU-16:29 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.

NU-16:30 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 ye shall understand that these men have

provoked the LORD.

NU-16:31 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:

NU-16:32 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.

NU-16:33 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.

NU-16:34 And all Israel that [were] round about them fled at

the cry of them:

for they said, Lest the earth swallow us up [also].

NU-16:35 And there came out a fire from the LORD, and consumed

the two

hundred and fifty men that offered incense.

NU-16:36 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

NU-16:37 Speak unto Eleazar 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.

NU-16:38 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.

NU-16:39 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:

NU-16:40 [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.

NU-16:41 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.

NU-16:42 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.

NU-16:43 And Moses and Aaron came before the tabernacle of the

congregation.

NU-16:44 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

NU-16:45 Get you up from among this congregation, that I may

consume them as

in a moment. And they fell upon their faces.

NU-16:46 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.

NU-16:47 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.

NU-16:48 And he stood between the dead and the living; and the

plague was

stayed.

NU-16:49 Now they that died in the plague were fourteen

thousand and seven

hundred, beside them that died about the matter of Korah.

NU-16:50 And Aaron returned unto Moses unto the door of the

tabernacle of the

congregation: and the plague was stayed.
