Now KorahH7141, the sonH1121 of IzharH3324, the sonH1121 of KohathH6955, the sonH1121 of LeviH3878, and DathanH1885 and AbiramH48, the sonsH1121 of EliabH446, and OnH203, the sonH1121 of PelethH6431, sonsH1121 of ReubenH7205, tookH3947 men:
And they rose upH6965 beforeH6440 MosesH4872, with certainH582 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, two hundredH3967 and fiftyH2572 princesH5387 of the assemblyH5712, famousH7148 in the congregationH4150, menH582 of renownH8034:
And they gathered themselves togetherH6950 against MosesH4872 and against AaronH175, and saidH559 unto them, Ye take too muchH7227 upon you, seeing all the congregationH5712 are holyH6918, every one of them, and the LORDH3068 is amongH8432 them: wherefore then lift ye upH5375 yourselves above the congregationH6951 of the LORDH3068? {Ye take…: Heb. It is much for you}
And when MosesH4872 heardH8085 it, he fellH5307 upon his faceH6440:
And he spakeH1696 unto KorahH7141 and unto all his companyH5712, sayingH559, Even to morrowH1242 the LORDH3068 will shewH3045 who are his, and who is holyH6918; and will cause him to come nearH7126 unto him: even him whom he hath chosenH977 will he cause to come nearH7126 unto him.
This doH6213; TakeH3947 you censersH4289, KorahH7141, and all his companyH5712;
And putH5414 fireH784 thereinH2004, and putH7760 incenseH7004 in them beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 to morrowH4279: and it shall be that the manH376 whom the LORDH3068 doth chooseH977, he shall be holyH6918: ye take too muchH7227 upon you, ye sonsH1121 of LeviH3878.
And MosesH4872 saidH559 unto KorahH7141, HearH8085, I pray you, ye sonsH1121 of LeviH3878:
Seemeth it but a small thingH4592 unto you, that the GodH430 of IsraelH3478 hath separatedH914 you from the congregationH5712 of IsraelH3478, to bring you nearH7126 to himself to doH5647 the serviceH5656 of the tabernacleH4908 of the LORDH3068, and to standH5975 beforeH6440 the congregationH5712 to ministerH8334 unto them?
And he hath brought thee nearH7126 to him, and all thy brethrenH251 the sonsH1121 of LeviH3878 with thee: and seekH1245 ye the priesthoodH3550 also?
For which causeH3651 both thou and all thy companyH5712 are gathered togetherH3259 against the LORDH3068: and what is AaronH175, that ye murmurH3885+H3885 against him?
And MosesH4872 sentH7971 to callH7121 DathanH1885 and AbiramH48, the sonsH1121 of EliabH446: which saidH559, We will not come upH5927:
Is it a small thingH4592 thatH3588 thou hast brought us upH5927 out of a landH776 that flowethH2100 with milkH2461 and honeyH1706, to killH4191 us in the wildernessH4057, except thou makeH8323 thyself altogetherH8323 a princeH8323 over us?
MoreoverH637 thou hast not broughtH935 us into a landH776 that flowethH2100 with milkH2461 and honeyH1706, or givenH5414 us inheritanceH5159 of fieldsH7704 and vineyardsH3754: wilt thou put outH5365 the eyesH5869 of these menH582? we will not come upH5927. {put…: Heb. bore out}
And MosesH4872 was veryH3966 wrothH2734, and saidH559 unto the LORDH3068, RespectH6437 not thou their offeringH4503: I have not takenH5375 oneH259 assH2543 from them, neither have I hurtH7489 oneH259 of them.
And MosesH4872 saidH559 unto KorahH7141, Be thou and all thy companyH5712 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, thou, and they, and AaronH175, to morrowH4279:
And takeH3947 every manH376 his censerH4289, and putH5414 incenseH7004 in them, and bringH7126 ye beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 every manH376 his censerH4289, two hundredH3967 and fiftyH2572 censersH4289; thou also, and AaronH175, eachH376 of you his censerH4289.
And they tookH3947 every manH376 his censerH4289, and putH5414 fireH784 in them, and laidH7760 incenseH7004 thereon, and stoodH5975 in the doorH6607 of the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150 with MosesH4872 and AaronH175.
And KorahH7141 gatheredH6950 all the congregationH5712 against them unto the doorH6607 of the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150: and the gloryH3519 of the LORDH3068 appearedH7200 unto all the congregationH5712.
And the LORDH3068 spakeH1696 unto MosesH4872 and unto AaronH175, sayingH559,
SeparateH914 yourselves from amongH8432 this congregationH5712, that I may consumeH3615 them in a momentH7281.
And they fellH5307 upon their facesH6440, and saidH559, O GodH410, the GodH430 of the spiritsH7307 of all fleshH1320, shall oneH259 manH376 sinH2398, and wilt thou be wrothH7107 with all the congregationH5712?
And the LORDH3068 spakeH1696 unto MosesH4872, sayingH559,
SpeakH1696 unto the congregationH5712, sayingH559, Get you upH5927 from aboutH5439 the tabernacleH4908 of KorahH7141, DathanH1885, and AbiramH48.
And MosesH4872 rose upH6965 and wentH3212 unto DathanH1885 and AbiramH48; and the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478 followedH3212 himH310.
And he spakeH1696 unto the congregationH5712, sayingH559, DepartH5493, I pray you, from the tentsH168 of these wickedH7563 menH582, and touchH5060 nothing of theirs, lest ye be consumedH5595 in all their sinsH2403.
So they gat upH5927 from the tabernacleH4908 of KorahH7141, DathanH1885, and AbiramH48, on every sideH5439: and DathanH1885 and AbiramH48 came outH3318, and stoodH5324 in the doorH6607 of their tentsH168, and their wivesH802, and their sonsH1121, and their little childrenH2945.
And MosesH4872 saidH559, Hereby ye shall knowH3045 that the LORDH3068 hath sentH7971 me to doH6213 all these worksH4639; for I have not done them of mine own mindH3820.
If these men dieH4191 the common deathH4194 of all menH120, or if they be visitedH6485 after the visitationH6486 of all menH120; then the LORDH3068 hath not sentH7971 me. {the common…: Heb. as every man dieth}
But if the LORDH3068 makeH1254 a new thingH1278, and the earthH127 openH6475 her mouthH6310, and swallow them upH1104, with all that appertain unto them, and they go downH3381 quickH2416 into the pitH7585; then ye shall understandH3045 that these menH582 have provokedH5006 the LORDH3068. {make…: Heb. create a creature}
And it came to pass, as he had made an endH3615 of speakingH1696 all these wordsH1697, that the groundH127 clave asunderH1234 that was under them:
And the earthH776 openedH6605 her mouthH6310, and swallowed them upH1104, and their housesH1004, and all the menH120 that appertained unto KorahH7141, and all their goodsH7399.
They, and all that appertained to them, went downH3381 aliveH2416 into the pitH7585, and the earthH776 closedH3680 upon them: and they perishedH6 from amongH8432 the congregationH6951.
And all IsraelH3478 that were round aboutH5439 them fledH5127 at the cryH6963 of them: for they saidH559, Lest the earthH776 swallow us upH1104 also.
And there came outH3318 a fireH784 from the LORDH3068, and consumedH398 the two hundredH3967 and fiftyH2572 menH376 that offeredH7126 incenseH7004.
And the LORDH3068 spakeH1696 unto MosesH4872, sayingH559,
SpeakH559 unto EleazarH499 the sonH1121 of AaronH175 the priestH3548, that he take upH7311 the censersH4289 outH996 of the burningH8316, and scatterH2219 thou the fireH784 yonderH1973; for they are hallowedH6942.
The censersH4289 of these sinnersH2400 against their own soulsH5315, let them makeH6213 them broadH7555 platesH6341 for a coveringH6826 of the altarH4196: for they offeredH7126 them beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, therefore they are hallowedH6942: and they shall be a signH226 unto the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478.
And EleazarH499 the priestH3548 tookH3947 the brasenH5178 censersH4289, wherewith they that were burntH8313 had offeredH7126; and they were made broadH7554 plates for a coveringH6826 of the altarH4196:
To be a memorialH2146 unto the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, thatH834+H4616 no strangerH376+H2114, which is not of the seedH2233 of AaronH175, come nearH7126 to offerH6999 incenseH7004 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068; that he be not as KorahH7141, and as his companyH5712: as the LORDH3068 saidH1696 to him by the handH3027 of MosesH4872.
But on the morrowH4283 all the congregationH5712 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 murmuredH3885 against MosesH4872 and against AaronH175, sayingH559, Ye have killedH4191 the peopleH5971 of the LORDH3068.
And it came to pass, when the congregationH5712 was gatheredH6950 against MosesH4872 and against AaronH175, that they lookedH6437 toward the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150: and, behold, the cloudH6051 coveredH3680 it, and the gloryH3519 of the LORDH3068 appearedH7200.
And MosesH4872 and AaronH175 cameH935 beforeH6440 the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150.
And the LORDH3068 spakeH1696 unto MosesH4872, sayingH559,
Get you upH7426 from amongH8432 this congregationH5712, that I may consumeH3615 them as in a momentH7281. And they fellH5307 upon their facesH6440.
And MosesH4872 saidH559 unto AaronH175, TakeH3947 a censerH4289, and putH5414 fireH784 therein from offH6440 the altarH4196, and putH7760 on incenseH7004, and goH3212 quicklyH4120 unto the congregationH5712, and make an atonementH3722 for them: for there is wrathH7110 gone outH3318 from the LORDH3068; the plagueH5063 is begunH2490.
And AaronH175 tookH3947 as MosesH4872 commandedH1696, and ranH7323 into the midstH8432 of the congregationH6951; and, behold, the plagueH5063 was begunH2490 among the peopleH5971: and he putH5414 on incenseH7004, and made an atonementH3722 for the peopleH5971.
And he stoodH5975 between the deadH4191 and the livingH2416; and the plagueH4046 was stayedH6113.
Now they that diedH4191 in the plagueH4046 were fourteenH702+H6240 thousandH505 and sevenH7651 hundredH3967, beside them that diedH4191 about the matterH1697 of KorahH7141.
And AaronH175 returnedH7725 unto MosesH4872 unto the doorH6607 of the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150: and the plagueH4046 was stayedH6113.

For which causeH3651 both thou and all thy companyH5712 are gathered togetherH3259 against the LORDH3068: and what is AaronH175, that ye murmurH3885+H3885 against him?
And ye shall be unto me a kingdomH4467 of priestsH3548, and an holyH6918 nationH1471. These are the wordsH1697 which thou shalt speakH1696 unto the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478.
And they will tellH559 it to the inhabitantsH3427 of this landH776: for they have heardH8085 that thou LORDH3068 art amongH7130 this peopleH5971, that thou LORDH3068 art seenH7200 faceH5869 to faceH5869, and that thy cloudH6051 standethH5975 over them, and that thou goestH1980 beforeH6440 them, by day timeH3119 in a pillarH5982 of a cloudH6051, and in a pillarH5982 of fireH784 by nightH3915.
And MiriamH4813 and AaronH175 spakeH1696 against MosesH4872 because ofH182 the EthiopianH3571 womanH802 whom he had marriedH3947: for he had marriedH3947 an EthiopianH3571 womanH802. {Ethiopian: or, Cushite} {married: Heb. taken}
For they have takenH5375 of their daughtersH1323 for themselves, and for their sonsH1121: so that the holyH6944 seedH2233 have mingledH6148 themselves with the peopleH5971 of those landsH776: yea, the handH3027 of the princesH8269 and rulersH5461 hath been chiefH7223 in this trespassH4604.
DefileH2930 not therefore the landH776 which ye shall inhabitH3427, whereinH8432 I dwellH7931: for I the LORDH3068 dwellH7931 amongH8432 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478.
And they saidH559, Hath the LORDH3068 indeed spokenH1696 only by MosesH4872? hath he not spokenH1696 also by us? And the LORDH3068 heardH8085 it.
To whatH4100 purpose is the multitudeH7230 of your sacrificesH2077 unto me? saithH559 the LORDH3068: I am fullH7646 of the burnt offeringsH5930 of ramsH352, and the fatH2459 of fed beastsH4806; and I delightH2654 not in the bloodH1818 of bullocksH6499, or of lambsH3532, or of he goatsH6260. {he goats: Heb. great he goats}
When ye comeH935 to appearH7200 beforeH6440 me, who hath requiredH1245 this at your handH3027, to treadH7429 my courtsH2691? {to appear: Heb. to be seen}
BringH935 no moreH3254 vainH7723 oblationsH4503; incenseH7004 is an abominationH8441 unto me; the new moonsH2320 and sabbathsH7676, the callingH7121 of assembliesH4744, I cannot away withH3201; it is iniquityH205, even the solemn meetingH6116. {iniquity: or, grief}
Your new moonsH2320 and your appointed feastsH4150 my soulH5315 hatethH8130: they are a troubleH2960 unto me; I am wearyH3811 to bearH5375 them.
And when ye spread forthH6566 your handsH3709, I will hideH5956 mine eyesH5869 from you: yea, when ye make manyH7235 prayersH8605, I will not hearH8085: your handsH3027 are fullH4390 of bloodH1818. {make…: Heb. multiply prayer} {blood: Heb. bloods}
WashH7364 you, make you cleanH2135; put awayH5493 the evilH7455 of your doingsH4611 from beforeH5048 mine eyesH5869; ceaseH2308 to do evilH7489;
And all the congregationH5712 lifted upH5375 their voiceH6963, and criedH5414; and the peopleH5971 weptH1058 that nightH3915.
And all the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 murmuredH3885 against MosesH4872 and against AaronH175: and the whole congregationH5712 saidH559 unto them, Would GodH3863 that we had diedH4191 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714! or would GodH3863 we had diedH4191 in this wildernessH4057!
And wherefore hath the LORDH3068 broughtH935 us unto this landH776, to fallH5307 by the swordH2719, that our wivesH802 and our childrenH2945 should be a preyH957? were it not betterH2896 for us to returnH7725 into EgyptH4714?
And they saidH559 oneH376 to anotherH251, Let us makeH5414 a captainH7218, and let us returnH7725 into EgyptH4714.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, AmendH3190 your waysH1870 and your doingsH4611, and I will cause you to dwellH7931 in this placeH4725.
TrustH982 ye not in lyingH8267 wordsH1697, sayingH559, The templeH1964 of the LORDH3068, The templeH1964 of the LORDH3068, The templeH1964 of the LORDH3068, are these.
For if ye throughlyH3190 amendH3190 your waysH1870 and your doingsH4611; if ye throughlyH6213 executeH6213 judgmentH4941 between a manH376 and his neighbourH7453;
If ye oppressH6231 not the strangerH1616, the fatherlessH3490, and the widowH490, and shedH8210 not innocentH5355 bloodH1818 in this placeH4725, neither walkH3212 afterH310 otherH312 godsH430 to your hurtH7451:
Then will I cause you to dwellH7931 in this placeH4725, in the landH776 that I gaveH5414 to your fathersH1, forH5704 everH5769 and everH5769.
Behold, ye trustH982 in lyingH8267 wordsH1697, that cannot profitH3276.
Will ye stealH1589, murderH7523, and commit adulteryH5003, and swearH7650 falselyH8267, and burn incenseH6999 unto BaalH1168, and walkH1980 afterH310 otherH312 godsH430 whom ye knowH3045 not;
And comeH935 and standH5975 beforeH6440 me in this houseH1004, which is calledH7121 by my nameH8034, and sayH559, We are deliveredH5337 to doH6213 all these abominationsH8441? {which…: Heb. whereupon my name is called}
Is this houseH1004, which is calledH7121 by my nameH8034, become a denH4631 of robbersH6530 in your eyesH5869? Behold, even I have seenH7200 it, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
But goH3212 ye now unto my placeH4725 which was in ShilohH7887, where I setH7931 my nameH8034 at the firstH7223, and seeH7200 what I didH6213 to it forH6440 the wickednessH7451 of my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478.
And they shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068 their GodH430, that brought them forthH3318 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, that I may dwellH7931 amongH8432 them: I am the LORDH3068 their GodH430.
AndG2532 thinkG1380 notG3361 to sayG3004 withinG1722 yourselvesG1438, We haveG2192 AbrahamG11 to our fatherG3962: forG1063 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, thatG3754 GodG2316 is ableG1410 ofG1537 theseG5130 stonesG3037 to raise upG1453 childrenG5043 unto AbrahamG11.
The chariotsH7393 of GodH430 are twenty thousandH7239, even thousandsH505 of angelsH8136: the LordH136 is among them, as in SinaiH5514, in the holyH6944 place. {even…: or, even many thousands}
To whomG3739 ourG2257 fathersG3962 wouldG2309 notG3756 obeyG1096+G5255, butG235 thrust him from themG683, andG2532 in theirG846 heartsG2588 turned back againG4762 intoG1519 EgyptG125,
AndG1161 nowG2235 alsoG2532 the axeG513 is laidG2749 untoG4314 the rootG4491 of the treesG1186: thereforeG3767 everyG3956 treeG1186 which bringethG4160 notG3361 forthG4160 goodG2570 fruitG2590 is hewn downG1581, andG2532 castG906 intoG1519 the fireG4442.
Ye stiffneckedG4644 andG2532 uncircumcisedG564 in heartG2588 andG2532 earsG3775, yeG5210 doG496 alwaysG104 resistG496 the HolyG40 GhostG4151: asG5613 yourG5216 fathersG3962 did, soG2532 do yeG5210.
