Numbers 16:3-11

3and they assembledH6950 themselves together against MosesH4872 and against AaronH175, and saidH559 unto them, Ye takeH5375 too muchH7227 upon you, seeing all the congregationH5712 are holyH6918, every oneH6918 of them, and Jehovah is among them: wherefore then liftH5375 ye up yourselves above the assemblyH6951 of Jehovah?

4And when MosesH4872 heardH8085 it, he fellH5307 upon his faceH6440: 5and he spake unto KorahH7141 and unto all his companyH5712, sayingH559, In the morningH1242 Jehovah will show who are his, and who is holyH6918, and will cause him to come near unto him: even him whom he shall chooseH977 will he cause to come near unto him. 6This do: takeH3947 you censersH4289, KorahH7141, and all his companyH5712; 7and putH5414 fireH784 in them, and putH5414 incenseH7004 upon them before Jehovah to-morrow: and it shall beH1961 that the manH376 whom Jehovah doth chooseH977, he shall beH1961 holyH6918: ye take too muchH7227 upon you, ye sonsH1121 of LeviH3878. 8And MosesH4872 saidH559 unto KorahH7141, HearH8085 now, ye sonsH1121 of LeviH3878: 9seemeth it but a smallH4592 thing unto you, that the GodH430 of IsraelH3478 hath separatedH914 you from the congregationH5712 of IsraelH3478, to bringH7126 you near to himself, to do the serviceH5656 of the tabernacleH4908 of Jehovah, and to standH5975 before the congregationH5712 to minister unto them; 10and that he hath broughtH7126 thee near, and all thy brethren the sonsH1121 of LeviH3878 with thee? and seekH1245 ye the priesthoodH3550 alsoH1571? 11ThereforeH3651 thou and all thy companyH5712 are gatheredH3259 togetherH3259 against Jehovah: and AaronH175, what is he that ye murmur against him?
