Numbers 16:29-35
29If these men die naturally as all people would, and suffer the fate of all, then the Lord has not sent me.
30But if the Lord brings about something unprecedented, and the ground opens its mouth and swallows them along with all that belongs to them so that they go down alive into Sheol, then you will know that these men have despised the Lord.”
31Just as he finished speaking all these words, the ground beneath them split open.
32The earth opened its mouth and swallowed them and their households, all Korah’s people, and all their possessions.
33They went down alive into Sheol with all that belonged to them. The earth closed over them, and they vanished from the assembly.
34At their cries, all the people of Israel who were around them fled because they thought, “The earth may swallow us too!”
35Fire also came out from the Lord and consumed the 250 men who were presenting the incense.
