God’s Word Translation
Numbers 16:4-11
4As soon as Moses heard this, he bowed with his face touching the ground.
5Then he said to Korah and all his followers, “In the morning the Lord will show who belongs to him, who is holy, and who it is that he will allow to come near him. Only the person the Lord chooses will be allowed to come near him.
6Korah, you and all your followers must do this tomorrow: Take incense burners,
7and put burning coals and incense in them in the Lord’s presence. Then the Lord will choose the man who is holy. You’ve gone far enough!”
8Moses also said to Korah, “Listen, you Levites!
9Isn’t it enough for you that the God of Israel has separated you from the rest of the community of Israel? The Lord has brought you near himself to do the work for his tent and stand in front of the community to serve them.
10He has brought you and all the other Levites near himself, but now you demand to be priests.
11So you and all your followers have joined forces against the Lord! Who is Aaron that you should complain about him?”
