Dathan » Conspirator » moses
and what he did unto Dathan and Abiram the sons of Eliab the son of Reuben, how the earth opened her mouth and swallowed them with their households and their tents and all their substance that was in their possession, in the midst of Israel.
So the earth opened and swallowed up Dathan, and covered the congregation of Abiram.
And the sons of Eliab were Nemuel, Dathan and Abiram. This is that Dathan and Abiram, councilors in the congregation, which strove against Moses and Aaron in the company of Korah, when they strove against the LORD.
And Korah, the son of Izhar, the son of Kohath, the son of Levi; and Dathan and Abiram, the son of Eliab; and On the son of Peleth, the sons of Reuben, stood up before Moses, with other of the children of Israel: two hundred and fifty, heads of the congregation, and councilors, and men of fame. And they gathered themselves together against Moses and Aaron, and said unto them, "Ye have done enough. For all the multitude are holy, every one of them, and the LORD is among them. Why therefore heave ye yourselves up above the congregation of the LORD?" read more.
When Moses heard it, he fell upon his face and spake unto Korah and unto all his company, saying, "Tomorrow the LORD will show who is his and who is holy, and will take them unto him, and whomsoever he hath chosen, he will cause to come to him. This do: take firepans, thou Korah and all thy company, and do fire therein and put cense thereto before the LORD tomorrow: And then whomsoever the LORD doeth chose, the same is holy. Ye make enough to do, ye children of Levi." And Moses said unto Korah, "Hear, ye children of Levi: Seemeth it but a small thing unto you, that the God of Israel hath separated you from the multitude of Israel to bring you to him, to do the service of the dwelling place of the LORD, and to stand before the people to minister unto them? He hath taken thee to him and all thy brethren the sons of Levi with thee, and ye seek the office of the priest also. For which cause both thou and all thy company are gathered together against the LORD: for what is Aaron, that ye should murmur against him?" And Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram the sons of Eliab, and they answered, "We will not come. Seemeth it a small thing unto thee that thou hast brought us out of a land that floweth with milk and honey, to kill us in the wilderness; but that thou shouldest reign over us also? Moreover, thou hast brought us unto no land that floweth with milk and honey, neither hast given us possessions of fields or of vines. Either wilt thou pull out the eyes of these men? We will not come." And Moses waxed very angry and said unto the LORD, "Turn not unto their offerings. I have not taken so much as an ass from them, neither have vexed any of them." Then Moses said unto Korah, "Be thou and all thy company before the LORD: both thou, they, and Aaron tomorrow. And take every man his censer and put cense in them, and come before the LORD every man with his censer: two hundred and fifty censers, and Aaron with his censer." And they took every man his censer and put fire in them and laid cense thereon, and stood in the door of the tabernacle of witness, and Moses and Aaron also. And Korah gathered all the congregation against them unto the door of the tabernacle of witness. And the glory of the LORD appeared unto all the congregation. And the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron, saying, "Separate yourselves from this congregation, that I may consume them at once." And they fell upon their faces, and said, "O most mighty God of the spirits of all flesh; one man hath sinned, and wilt thou be wroth with all the multitude?" And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, "Speak unto the congregation, and say, 'Get you away from about the dwelling of Korah, Dathan and Abiram.'" And Moses rose up and went unto Dathan and Abiram, and the elders of Israel followed him. And he spake unto the congregation, saying, "Depart from the tents of these wicked men and touch nothing of theirs: lest ye perish in all their sins." And they gat them from the dwelling of Korah, Dathan and Abiram, on every side. And Dathan and Abiram came out and stood in the door of their tents with their wives, their sons and their children. And Moses said, "Hereby ye shall know that the LORD hath sent me to do all these works, and that I have not done them of mine own mind: If these men die the common death of all men or if they be visited after the visitation of all men, then the LORD hath not sent me. But and if the LORD make a new thing, and the earth open her mouth and swallow them and all that pertain unto them, so that they go down quick in to hell: then ye shall understand, that these men have railed upon the LORD." And as soon as he had made an end of speaking all these words, the ground clove asunder that was under them, and the earth opened her mouth and swallowed them and their houses and all the men that were with Korah and all their goods. And they and all that pertained unto them, went down alive unto hell, and the earth closed upon them, and they perished from among the congregation. And all Israel that were about them, fled at the cry of them. For they said, "The earth might haply swallow us also." And there came out a fire from the LORD and consumed the two hundred and fifty men that offered cense.
When Moses heard it, he fell upon his face and spake unto Korah and unto all his company, saying, "Tomorrow the LORD will show who is his and who is holy, and will take them unto him, and whomsoever he hath chosen, he will cause to come to him. This do: take firepans, thou Korah and all thy company, and do fire therein and put cense thereto before the LORD tomorrow: And then whomsoever the LORD doeth chose, the same is holy. Ye make enough to do, ye children of Levi." And Moses said unto Korah, "Hear, ye children of Levi: Seemeth it but a small thing unto you, that the God of Israel hath separated you from the multitude of Israel to bring you to him, to do the service of the dwelling place of the LORD, and to stand before the people to minister unto them? He hath taken thee to him and all thy brethren the sons of Levi with thee, and ye seek the office of the priest also.

And Moses rose up and went unto Dathan and Abiram, and the elders of Israel followed him. And he spake unto the congregation, saying, "Depart from the tents of these wicked men and touch nothing of theirs: lest ye perish in all their sins."
