King James Version Help
16Now 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:H7141H1121H3324H1121H6955H1121H3878H1885H48H1121H446H203H1121H6431H1121H7205H39472And 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:H6965H6440H4872H582H1121H3478H3967H2572H5387H5712H7148H4150H582H80343And 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?H6950H4872H175H559H7227H5712H6918H3068H8432H5375H6951H30684And when Moses heard it, he fell upon his face:H4872H8085H5307H64405And 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.H1696H7141H5712H559H1242H3068H3045H6918H7126H977H71266This do; Take you censers, Korah, and all his company;H6213H3947H4289H7141H57127And 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.H5414H784H2004H7760H7004H6440H3068H4279H376H3068H977H6918H7227H1121H38788And Moses said unto Korah, Hear, I pray you, ye sons of Levi:H4872H559H7141H8085H1121H38789Seemeth 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?H4592H430H3478H914H5712H3478H7126H5647H5656H4908H3068H5975H6440H5712H833410And he hath brought thee near to him, and all thy brethren the sons of Levi with thee: and seek ye the priesthood also?H7126H251H1121H3878H1245H355011For which cause both thou and all thy company are gathered together against the LORD: and what is Aaron, that ye murmur against him?H3651H5712H3259H3068H175H3885H388512And Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab: which said, We will not come up:H4872H7971H7121H1885H48H1121H446H559H592713Is 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?H4592H3588H5927H776H2100H2461H1706H4191H4057H8323H8323H832314Moreover 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.H637H935H776H2100H2461H1706H5414H5159H7704H3754H5365H5869H582H592715And 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.H4872H3966H2734H559H3068H6437H4503H5375H259H2543H7489H25916And Moses said unto Korah, Be thou and all thy company before the LORD, thou, and they, and Aaron, to morrow:H4872H559H7141H5712H6440H3068H175H427917And 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.H3947H376H4289H5414H7004H7126H6440H3068H376H4289H3967H2572H4289H175H376H428918And 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.H3947H376H4289H5414H784H7760H7004H5975H6607H168H4150H4872H17519And 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.H7141H6950H5712H6607H168H4150H3519H3068H7200H571220And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,H3068H1696H4872H175H55921Separate yourselves from among this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment.H914H8432H5712H3615H728122And 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?H5307H6440H559H410H430H7307H1320H259H376H2398H7107H571223And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,H3068H1696H4872H55924Speak unto the congregation, saying, Get you up from about the tabernacle of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram.H1696H5712H559H5927H5439H4908H7141H1885H4825And Moses rose up and went unto Dathan and Abiram; and the elders of Israel followed him.H4872H6965H3212H1885H48H2205H3478H3212H31026And he spake unto the congregation, saying, Depart, I pray you, from the tents of these wicked men, and touch nothing of their's, lest ye be consumed in all their sins.H1696H5712H559H5493H168H7563H582H5060H5595H240327So 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.H5927H4908H7141H1885H48H5439H1885H48H3318H5324H6607H168H802H1121H294528And 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.H4872H559H3045H3068H7971H6213H4639H382029If 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.H4191H4194H120H6485H6486H120H3068H797130But 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.H3068H1254H1278H127H6475H6310H1104H3381H2416H7585H3045H582H5006H306831And it came to pass, as he had made an end of speaking all these words, that the ground clave asunder that was under them:H3615H1696H1697H127H123432And the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up, and their houses, and all the men that appertained unto Korah, and all their goods.H776H6605H6310H1104H1004H120H7141H739933They, 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.H3381H2416H7585H776H3680H6H8432H695134And all Israel that were round about them fled at the cry of them: for they said, Lest the earth swallow us up also.H3478H5439H5127H6963H559H776H110435And there came out a fire from the LORD, and consumed the two hundred and fifty men that offered incense.H3318H784H3068H398H3967H2572H376H7126H700436And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,H3068H1696H4872H55937Speak 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.H559H499H1121H175H3548H7311H4289H996H8316H2219H784H1973H694238The 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.H4289H2400H5315H6213H7555H6341H6826H4196H7126H6440H3068H6942H226H1121H347839And Eleazar 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:H499H3548H3947H5178H4289H8313H7126H7554H6826H419640To 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.H2146H1121H3478H834H4616H376H2114H2233H175H7126H6999H7004H6440H3068H7141H5712H3068H1696H3027H487241But 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.H4283H5712H1121H3478H3885H4872H175H559H4191H5971H306842And 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.H5712H6950H4872H175H6437H168H4150H6051H3680H3519H3068H720043And Moses and Aaron came before the tabernacle of the congregation.H4872H175H935H6440H168H415044And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,H3068H1696H4872H55945Get you up from among this congregation, that I may consume them as in a moment. And they fell upon their faces.H7426H8432H5712H3615H7281H5307H644046And 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.H4872H559H175H3947H4289H5414H784H6440H4196H7760H7004H3212H4120H5712H3722H7110H3318H3068H5063H249047And 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.H175H3947H4872H1696H7323H8432H6951H5063H2490H5971H5414H7004H3722H597148And he stood between the dead and the living; and the plague was stayed.H5975H4191H2416H4046H611349Now they that died in the plague were fourteen thousand and seven hundred, beside them that died about the matter of Korah.H4191H4046H702H6240H505H7651H3967H4191H1697H714150And Aaron returned unto Moses unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation: and the plague was stayed.H175H7725H4872H6607H168H4150H4046H6113
