And a plague broke out among them.

And he put

Moses said to Aaron, “Take a censer and put fire in it from the altar and lay incense on it; then bring it quickly to the congregation and make atonement for them, for wrath has gone forth from the Lord; the plague has begun!”

“The priests shall teach Your ordinances (judgments) to Jacob,
And Your law to Israel.
They shall put incense before You,
And whole burnt offerings on Your altar.

To crush Him, causing Him to suffer;

He shall prolong His days,
And the will (good pleasure) of the Lord shall succeed and prosper in His hand.
