4: so when heard [it]H8085 MosesH4872 and he fellH5307 onH5921 his face-H6440

5: and he spokeH1696 toH0413 KorahH7141 andH0413 allH3605 his company,H5712 saying,H0559 Tomorrow morningH1242 and will showH3045 YahwehH3068 -H0853 who [is]H0834 andH0853 [who is] holy-H6918 and will cause [him] to come nearH7126 to HimH0413 andH0853 that one whomH0834 He choosesH0977 He will cause to come nearH7126 to Him.H0413

6: ThisH2063 do-H6213 takeH3947 censers,H4289 Korah,H7141 and allH3605 your company-H5712

7: and putH5414 in themH2004 fireH0784 and putH7760 in themH5921 incenseH7004 beforeH6440 YahwehH3068 tomorrow-H4279 and it shall beH1961 [that] the manH0376 whomH0834 chooses,H0977 YahwehH3068 isH1931 the holy one-H6918 [You take] too muchH7227 you sons ofH1121 Levi.H3878

8: And saidH0559 MosesH4872 toH0413 Korah,H7141 Hear,H8085 now,H4994 you sons ofH1121 Levi,H3878

9: [is it] a small thingH4592 to youH4480 thatH3588 has separatedH0914 the GodH0430 of IsraelH3478 youH0853 from the congregationH5712 of Israel,H3478 to bring nearH7126 youH0853 to HimselfH0413 to doH5647 -H0853 the workH5656 of the tabernacleH4908 of Yahweh,H3068 and to standH5975 beforeH6440 the congregationH5712 to serve them.H8334

10: That He has brought you near [to Himself]H7126 youH0853 andH0853 allH3605 your brothersH0251 the sons ofH1121 LeviH3878 with youH0854 and are you seekingH1245 alsoH1571 the priesthood?H3550

11: thereforeH3651 youH0859 and allH3605 your companyH5712 [are] gathered togetherH3259 againstH5921 Yahweh-H3068 and Aaron,H0175 whatH4100 isH1931 thatH3588 you complainH3885 against him.H5921

12: And sentH7971 MosesH4872 to callH7121 DathanH1885 and Abiram,H0048 the sonsH1121 of Eliab-H0446 but they said,H0559 notH3808 we will come up-H5927

13: [is it] a small thingH4592 thatH3588 you have brought us upH5927 out of a landH0776 flowing withH2100 milkH2461 and honey,H1706 to kill usH4191 in the wilderness,H4057 thatH3588 you should keep actingH8323 over usH5921 likeH1571 a prince.H8323

14: MoreoverH0637 notH3808 intoH0413 a landH0776 flowing withH2100 milkH2461 and honey,H1706 you have brought usH0935 nor givenH5414 inheritanceH5159 of fieldsH7704 and vineyards.H3754 Will eyesH5869 of the men?H0376 thoseH1992 you put outH5365 notH3808 we will come up.H5927

15: And was angry,H2734 MosesH4872 very,H3966 and saidH0559 toH0413 Yahweh,H3068 notH0408 do respectH6437 toH0413 their offering!H4503 notH3808 donkeyH2543 oneH0259 from themH1992 I have takenH5375 norH3808 have I hurtH7489 -H0853 one ofH0259 them.H1992

16: And saidH0559 MosesH4872 toH0413 Korah,H7141 youH0859 and allH3605 your companyH5712 be presentH1961 beforeH6440 Yahweh,H3068 you,H0859 and they,H1992 and as well as Aaron,H0175 Tomorrow,H4279

17: and let takeH3947 eachH0376 his censer,H4289 and putH5414 in itH5921 incenseH7004 and bringH7126 beforeH6440 YahwehH3068 each of youH0376 his censer,H4289 fiftyH2572 and two hundredH3967 censers-H4289 and both youH0859 and Aaron,H0175 eachH0376 [with] his censer.H4289

18: So tookH3947 every manH0376 his censer,H4289 and putH5414 in itH5921 fireH0784 and laidH7760 on itH5921 incenseH7004 and stoodH5975 at the doorH6607 of the tabernacleH0168 of meetingH4150 and with MosesH4872 and Aaron.H0175

19: And gatheredH6950 against themH5921 KorahH7141 -H0853 allH3605 the assemblyH5712 atH0413 the doorH6607 of the tabernacleH0168 of meeting.H4150 And appearedH7200 the gloryH3519 of YahwehH3068 toH0413 allH3605 the congregation.H5712

20: And spokeH1696 YahwehH3068 toH0413 MosesH4872 andH0413 Aaron,H0175 saying,H0559

21: Separate yourselvesH0914 from amongH8432 congregation,H5712 thisH2063 that I may consumeH3615 themH0853 in a moment.H7281

22: And they fellH5307 onH5921 their faces,H6440 and said,H0559 God,H0410 the GodH0430 of the spiritsH7307 of allH3605 flesh,H1320 shall manH0376 oneH0259 sin,H2398 and withH5921 allH3605 the congregation?H5712 You be angry.H7107

23: So spokeH1696 YahwehH3068 toH0413 Moses,H4872 saying,H0559

24: speakH1696 toH0413 the congregation,H5712 saying,H0559 Get awayH5927 fromH5439 the tentsH4908 of Korah,H7141 Dathan,H1885 and Abiram.H0048

25: And roseH6965 MosesH4872 and wentH1980 toH0413 DathanH1885 and Abiram-H0048 and followedH1980 himH0310 the eldersH2205 of Israel.H3478

26: And he spokeH1696 toH0413 the congregation,H5712 saying,H0559 Depart,H5493 now,H4994 fromH5921 the tentsH0168 of men,H0376 wickedH7563 theseH0428 and notH0408 touchH5060 anythingH3605 whichH0834 lestH6435 you be consumedH5595 in allH3605 their sins.H2403

27: So they got awayH5927 from aroundH5921 the tentsH4908 of Korah,H7141 Dathan,H1885 and Abiram,H0048 around-H5439 and DathanH1885 and AbiramH0048 came out,H3318 and stood atH5324 the doorH6607 of their tents,H0168 and with their wives,H0802 and their sons,H1121 and their little children.H2945

28: And said,H0559 MosesH4872 by thisH2063 you shall knowH3045 thatH3588 YahwehH3068 has sent meH7971 to doH6213 -H0853 allH3605 works-H4639 theseH0428 forH3588 notH3808 [I have done them] of my own will.H3820

29: IfH0518 likeH4194 allH3605 men,H0120 men die naturallyH4191 theseH0428 or if the common fateH6486 of allH3605 men-H0120 they are visitedH6485 byH5921 notH3808 [then] YahwehH3068 has sent me.H7971

30: But ifH0518 a new thing,H1278 createsH1254 YahwehH3068 and opensH6475 the earthH0127 -H0853 its mouth,H6310 and swallows up withH1104 themH0853 andH0853 allH3605 thatH0834 and they go downH3381 aliveH2416 into the pit-H7585 then you will understandH3045 thatH3588 have rejectedH5006 menH0376 theseH0428 -H0853 Yahweh.H3068

31: And it came to pass,H1961 as he finishedH3615 speakingH1696 -H0853 allH3605 words,H1697 theseH0428 that split apartH1234 the groundH0127 thatH0834 [was] under them.H8478

32: And openedH6605 the earthH0776 -H0853 its mouth,H6310 and swallowed them upH1104 -H0853 and withH0853 their households,H1004 andH0853 allH3605 the menH0120 that [are]H0834 with Korah,H7141 and withH0853 allH3605 [their] goods.H7399

33: So went downH3381 they,H1992 and allH3605 thoseH0834 aliveH2416 into the pit,H7585 and closedH3680 over themH5921 the earthH0776 and they perishedH0006 from amongH8432 the assembly.H6951

34: And allH3605 IsraelH3478 who [were]H0834 around themH5439 fledH5127 at their cryH6963 forH3588 they said,H0559 lest [also]H6435 swallow us upH1104 the earth.H0776

35: And a fireH0784 came outH3318 fromH0853 Yahweh,H3068 and consumedH0398 theH0853 fiftyH2572 and two hundredH3967 menH0376 who were offeringH7126 incense.H7004

36: And spokeH1696 YahwehH3068 toH0413 Moses,H4872 saying,H0559

37: TellH0559 untoH0413 EleazarH0499 sonH1121 of AaronH0175 the priest,H3548 and to pick upH7311 -H0853 the censersH4289 outH0996 of the blaze,H8316 andH0853 the fireH0784 scatterH2219 some distance away-H1973 forH3588 they are holy.H6942

38: -H0853 The censersH4289 of the sinful menH2400 theseH0428 against their own souls,H5315 and let be madeH6213 themH0853 hammeredH7555 into platesH6341 as a coveringH6826 for the altar,H4196 becauseH3588 they presented themH7126 beforeH6440 Yahweh,H3068 therefore they are holy-H6942 and they shall beH1961 a signH0226 to the sonsH1121 of Israel.H3478

39: So tookH3947 EleazarH0499 the priestH3548 -H0853 censers,H4289 the bronzeH5178 whichH0834 had presented-H7126 those who were burned upH8313 and they were hammered outH7554 as a coveringH6826 on the altar,H4196

40: [to be] a memorialH2146 to the sonsH1121 of Israel,H3478 to the end thatH4616 -H0834 noH3808 should come nearH7126 sonH0376 of a foreigner,H2114 whoH0834 notH3808 a descendantH2233 of Aaron,H0175 isH1931 to offerH6999 incenseH7004 beforeH6440 Yahweh-H3068 that notH3808 he might becomeH1961 like Korah,H7141 and his companions-H5712 just asH0834 had saidH1696 YahwehH3068 throughH3027 MosesH4872

41: And murmuredH3885 allH3605 the congregationH5712 of the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 On the next dayH4283 againstH5921 MosesH4872 andH5921 Aaron,H0175 saying,H0559 YouH0859 have killedH4191 -H0853 the peopleH5971 of Yahweh.H3068

42: And it came to pass,H1961 when had gatheredH6950 the congregationH5712 againstH5921 MosesH4872 andH5921 Aaron,H0175 that they turnedH6437 towardH0413 the tabernacleH0168 of meeting,H4150 and suddenly,H2009 covered itH3680 the cloudH6051 and appearedH7200 the gloryH3519 of Yahweh.H3068

43: And cameH0935 MosesH4872 and AaronH0175 toH0413 the face ofH6440 the tabernacleH0168 of meeting.H4150

44: And spokeH1696 YahwehH3068 toH0413 Moses,H4872 saying,H0559

45: Get awayH7426 from amongH8432 congregation,H5712 thisH2063 that I may consumeH3615 themH0853 in a moment.H7281 And they fellH5307 onH5921 their faces.H6440

46: So saidH0559 MosesH4872 toH0413 Aaron,H0175 takeH3947 -H0853 a censer,H4289 and putH5414 in itH5921 fireH0784 fromH5921 the altar,H4196 and put [on it]H7760 incense,H7004 and take quicklyH1980 itH4120 toH0413 the congregation,H5712 and make atonementH3722 for themH5921 forH3588 has gone outH3318 wrathH7110 fromH6440 Yahweh-H3068 has begunH2490 the plague.H5063

47: And took [it]H3947 AaronH0175 asH0834 commanded,H1696 MosesH4872 and ranH7323 intoH0413 the midstH8432 of the assembly-H6951 and already,H2009 had begunH2490 the plagueH5063 the among people.H5971 So he put inH5414 -H0853 the incense,H7004 and made atonementH3722 forH5921 the people.H5971

48: And he stoodH5975 betweenH0996 the deadH4191 andH0996 the living-H2416 so was stoppedH6113 the plague.H4046

49: And wereH1961 those who diedH4191 in the plagueH4046 fourH0702 [and] tenH6240 thousandH0505 and sevenH7651 hundred,H3967 besidesH0905 those who diedH4191 inH5921 the incidentH1697 Korah.H7141

50: So returnedH7725 AaronH0175 toH0413 MosesH4872 atH0413 the doorH6607 of the tabernacleH0168 of meeting,H4150 for the plagueH4046 had stopped.H6113
