Numbers 16:19-35

19And KorahH7141 assembledH6950 all the congregationH5712 against them unto the doorH6607 of the tentH168 of meetingH4150: and the gloryH3519 of Jehovah appearedH7200 unto all the congregationH5712.

20And Jehovah spake unto MosesH4872 and unto AaronH175, sayingH559, 21SeparateH914 yourselves from among this congregationH5712, that I may consume them in a momentH7281. 22And they fellH5307 upon their facesH6440, and saidH559, O GodH430, the GodH430 of the spiritsH7307 of all fleshH1320, shall oneH259 manH376 sinH2398, and wilt thou be wroth with all the congregationH5712? 23And Jehovah spake unto MosesH4872, sayingH559, 24SpeakH1696 unto the congregationH5712, sayingH559, Get you up from about the tabernacleH4908 of KorahH7141, DathanH1885, and AbiramH48.

25And MosesH4872 roseH6965 up and went unto DathanH1885 and AbiramH48; and the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478 followed him. 26And he spake unto the congregationH5712, sayingH559, DepartH5493, I pray you, from the tentsH168 of these wickedH7563 menH376, and touchH5060 nothing of theirs, lestH6435 ye be consumed in all their sinsH2403. 27So they gat them up from the tabernacleH4908 of KorahH7141, DathanH1885, and AbiramH48, on every side: and DathanH1885 and AbiramH48 cameH3318 out, and stoodH5324 at the doorH6607 of their tentsH168, and their wivesH802, and their sonsH1121, and their littleH2945 onesH2945. 28And MosesH4872 saidH559, Hereby ye shall knowH3045 that Jehovah hath sentH7971 me to do all these worksH4639; for I have not done them of mine own mind. 29If these menH120 dieH4191 the common deathH4191 of all menH120, or if they be visitedH6485 after the visitation of all menH120; then Jehovah hath not sentH7971 me. 30But if Jehovah makeH3045 a new thing, and the groundH127 openH6475 its mouthH6310, and swallowH1104 them up, with all that appertain unto them, and they goH3381 down aliveH2416 into SheolH7585; then ye shall understand that these menH376 have despised Jehovah.

31And it came to pass, as he made an endH3615 of speakingH1696 all these wordsH1697, that the groundH127 clave asunder that wasH1961 under them; 32and the earthH776 openedH6605 its mouthH6310, and swallowedH1104 them up, and their householdsH1004, and all the menH120 that appertained unto KorahH7141, and all their goods. 33So they, and all that appertained to them, wentH3381 downH3381 aliveH2416 into SheolH7585: and the earthH776 closed upon them, and they perishedH6 from among the assemblyH6951. 34And all IsraelH3478 that were roundH5439 about them fledH5127 at the cry of them; for they saidH559, LestH6435 the earthH776 swallowH1104 us up. 35And fireH784 cameH3318 forthH3318 from Jehovah, and devouredH398 the twoH3967 hundredH3967 and fiftyH2572 menH376 that offered the incenseH7004.
