And when Moses was gone into the tabernacle of meeting to speak with him, then he heard the voice of one speaking unto him from off the mercy seat that was upon the ark of testimony, from between the two cherubim: and he spoke unto him.

And you shall set the Levites before Aaron, and before his sons, and offer them for an offering unto the LORD.

And those men said unto him, We are defiled by the dead body of a man: why are we kept back, that we may not offer an offering of the LORD in its appointed time among the children of Israel?

And the LORD said unto Moses, Gather unto me seventy men of the elders of Israel, whom you know to be the elders of the people, and officers over them; and bring them unto the tabernacle of meeting, that they may stand there with you.

But all the congregation said to stone them with stones. And the glory of the LORD appeared in the tabernacle of meeting before all the children of Israel.

And the LORD said unto Moses, How long will this people despise me? and how long will it be before they believe me, with all the signs which I have shown among them?

And Moses said unto the LORD, Then the Egyptians shall hear it, (for you brought up this people in your might from among them;)

And the LORD said, I have pardoned according to your word:

But your little ones, whom you said should be a prey, them will I bring in, and they shall know the land which you have despised.

I the LORD have said, I will surely do it unto all this evil congregation, that are gathered together against me: in this wilderness they shall be consumed, and there they shall die.

And Moses said, Why now do you transgress the commandment of the LORD? but it shall not prosper.

And will make an offering by fire unto the LORD, a burnt offering, or a sacrifice in performing a vow, or in a freewill offering, or in your solemn feasts, to make a sweet aroma unto the LORD, of the herd, or of the flock:

And for a drink offering you shall offer the third part of a hin of wine, for a sweet aroma unto the LORD.

And you shall bring for a drink offering half a hin of wine, for an offering made by fire, of a sweet aroma unto the LORD.

All that are born in this country shall do these things after this manner, in offering an offering made by fire, of a sweet aroma unto the LORD.

And Moses said unto Korah, Hear, I pray you, you sons of Levi:

And Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab: who said, We will not come up:

And Moses was very angry, and said unto the LORD, Respect not their offering: I have not taken one donkey from them, neither have I hurt one of them.

And Moses said unto Korah, Be you and all your company before the LORD, you, and they, and Aaron, tomorrow:

And they fell upon their faces, and said, O God, the God of the spirits of all flesh, shall one man sin, and will you be angry with all the congregation?

But the tithes of the children of Israel, which they offer as a heave offering unto the LORD, I have given to the Levites to inherit: therefore I have said unto them, Among the children of Israel they shall have no inheritance.

And one shall burn the heifer in his sight; her skin, and her flesh, and her blood, with her dung, shall he burn:

And the children of Israel set out, and encamped in Oboth.

From there they moved, and encamped on the other side of Arnon, which is in the wilderness that extends from the border of the Amorites: for Arnon is the border of Moab, between Moab and the Amorites.

Therefore it is said in the Book of the Wars of the LORD, What he did in the Red Sea, and in the brooks of Arnon,

And the LORD said unto Moses, Fear him not: for I have delivered him into your hand, and all his people, and his land; and you shall do to him as you did unto Sihon king of the Amorites, who dwelt at Heshbon.

And the children of Israel set out, and encamped in the plains of Moab on this side of Jordan by Jericho.
