And Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram the sons of Eliab, and they answered, "We will not come.

Then Moses said unto Korah, "Be thou and all thy company before the LORD: both thou, they, and Aaron tomorrow.

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 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 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.

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 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."

for the censers of these sinners are hallowed in their deaths: and let them be beaten into thin plates and fastened upon the altar. For they offered them before the LORD, and therefore they are holy and they shall be a sign unto the children of Israel."

And Eleazar the priest took the brazen censers which they that were burnt had offered, and beat them and fastened them upon the altar,

And when the multitude was gathered against Moses and Aaron, they looked toward the tabernacle of witness; And behold, the cloud had covered it and the glory of the LORD appeared.

"Get you from this congregation, that I may consume them quickly." And they fell upon their faces.

And his rod whom I chose, shall blossom: So I will make cease from me the grudgings of the children of Israel which they grudge against you."

And Moses brought out all the staves from before the LORD, unto all the children of Israel, and they looked upon them, and took every man his staff.

And the LORD said unto Moses, "Bring Aaron's rod again before the witness to be kept for a token unto the children of rebellion, that their murmurings may cease from me, that they die not."

And let them wait upon thee and upon all the tabernacle: only let them not come nigh the holy vessels and the altar, that both they and ye also die not.

This shall be thine of most holy sacrifices: All their gifts, throughout all their meat offerings, sin offerings and trespass offerings which they bring unto me. They shall be most holy unto thee and unto thy sons.

all the fat of the oil, of the wine and of the corn: their first fruits which they give unto the LORD that have I given unto thee.

The first fruits of all that is in their lands which they bring unto the LORD, shall be thine: and all that are clean in thine house, shall eat of it.

"But the firstborn of oxen, sheep and goats shall not be redeemed. For they are holy, and thou shalt sprinkle their blood upon the altar, and shalt burn their fat to be a sacrifice of a sweet savour unto the LORD.

And behold, I have given the children of Levi the tenth in Israel to inherit, for the service which they serve in the tabernacle of witness,

And the Levites shall do the service in the tabernacle of witness and bear their sin, and it shall be a law forever unto your children after you: But among the children of Israel they shall inherit none inheritance.

For the tithes of the children of Israel which they heave unto the LORD, I have given the Levites to inherit. Wherefore I have said unto them, 'Among the children of Israel ye shall inherit none inheritance.'"

And one that is clean, shall go and take up the ashes of the cow, and put them without the host in a clean place, where they shall be kept to make sprinkling water for the multitude of the children of Israel: for it is a sin offering.

And they shall take for an unclean person, of the burnt ashes of the sin offering, and put running water thereto into a vessel.

Moreover, there was no water for the multitude, wherefore they gathered themselves together against Moses and against Aaron.

And Moses did as the LORD commanded: and they went up into mount Hor in the sight of all the multitude.

And the LORD heard the voice of Israel, and delivered them the Canaanites. And they destroyed both them and their cities, and called the place Hormah.

Then they departed from mount Hor toward the reed sea: to compass the land of Edom. And the souls of the people fainted by the way.

And the LORD said unto Moses, "Make thee a serpent and hang it up for a sign, and let as many as are bitten look upon it and they shall live."

And they departed from Oboth and lay at Iyeabarim in the wilderness, which is before Moab on the east side.

And they removed thence, and pitched upon the river of Zered.

And they departed thence and pitched on the other side of Arnon, which river is in the wilderness, and cometh out of the coasts of the Amorites: for Arnon is the border of Moab, between Moab and the Amorites.

And from thence they came to Bear, which is the well whereof the LORD spake unto Moses, "Gather the people together, that I may give them water."

And from this wilderness they went to Mattanah,

Wherefore they that speak in proverbs say: "Go to Heshbon and let the city of Sihon be built and made ready!

And Moses sent to search out Jazer, and they took the towns belonging thereto and conquered the Amorites that were there.

And then they turned and went up toward Bashan. And Og, the king of Bashan, came out against them, both he and all his people, to war at Edrei.

And they smote him and his sons and all his people, until there was nothing left him. And they conquered his land.

and the Moabites were sore afraid of the people, because they were many; and abhorred the children of Israel.

Come now a fellowship, and curse me this people. For they are too mighty for me, so peradventure I might be able to smite them and to drive them out of the land. For I know that whom thou blessest shall be blessed, and whom thou cursest shall be cursed."

And the elders of Moab went with the elders of Midian, and the reward of the soothsaying in their hands. And they came unto Balaam and told him the words of Balak.

And God said unto Balaam, "Thou shalt not go with them, neither curse the people: for they are blessed."

And Balak sent again a greater company of lords, and more honorable than they.

And they came to Balaam and told him, "Thus sayeth Balak, the son of Zippor: 'Oh, let nothing let thee to come unto me,

And Balaam went with Balak, and they came unto the city of Huzoth.

And behold, one of the children of Israel went in against his brethren, and joined himself to a Midianitish woman, in the sight of Moses and in the sight of all the multitude of the children of Israel as they were weeping in the door of the tabernacle of witness.

for they have troubled you with their wiles with thee, which they have beguiled you, through Peor and through their sister Cozbi the daughter of a lord in Midian, which was slain in the day of the plague for Peor's sake."

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 the earth opened her mouth and swallowed them and Korah also, when the multitude died, what time the fire consumed two hundred and fifty men, and they became a sign:

Notwithstanding, the land shall be divided by lot; and according to the names of the tribes of their fathers, they shall inherit:

But Nadab and Abihu died, as they offered strange fire before the LORD.

And the number of them was twenty three thousand, of all the males from a month old and above. For they were not numbered among the children of Israel, because there was no inheritance given them among the children of Israel.

For the LORD said unto them, that they should die in the wilderness and that there should not be left a man of them: save Caleb the son of Jephunneh and Joshua the son of Nun.

"Give the children of Israel a charge, and say unto them that they take heed to offer unto me the offering of my bread in the sacrifice of sweet savour, in his due season.

And this ye shall do besides the daily burnt offering, and his meat offering: and they shall be without spot, with their drink offerings.

The vow of a widow and of her that is divorced, and all that they have bound their souls withal, shall stand in effect with them.

And they warred against the Midianites, as the LORD commanded Moses, and slew all the males.

And they slew the kings of Midian among other that were slain; Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur and Reba: five kings of Midian. And they slew Balaam the son of Beor with the sword.

And they burnt all their cities wherein they dwelt, and all their castles, with fire.

And they took all the spoil and all they could catch, both of men and beasts.

And they brought the captives, and that which they had taken, and all the spoil, unto Moses and Eleazar the priest; and unto the company of the children of Israel, even unto the host in the fields of Moab by Jordan nigh to Jericho.

The children of Reuben and the children of Gad had an exceeding great multitude of cattle. And when they saw the land of Jazer and the land of Gilead, that it was an apt place for cattle,

they came and spake unto Moses and Eleazar the priest and unto the lords of the congregation, saying,

Wherefore," said they, "if we have found grace in thy sight, let this land be given unto thy servants to possess, and bring us not over Jordan."

And they went up even unto the river of Eshcol and saw the land, and discouraged the hearts of the children of Israel, that they should not go into the land which the LORD had given them.

'None of the men that came out of Egypt, from twenty years old and above, shall see the land which I swore unto Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, because they have not continually followed me:

save Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite, and Joshua the son of Nun, for they have followed me continually.'

And they went near him and said, "We will build sheepfolds here for our sheep and for our cattle, and cities for our children:

But and if they will not go over with you in harness, then they shall have their possessions among you in the land of Canaan."

Bethnimra and Bethharan fenced cities, and they built folds for their sheep.

Nebo, Baalmeon - and turned their names - and Sibmah also: and gave names unto the cities which they built.

And they departed from Succoth and pitched their tents in Etham, which is in the edge of the wilderness.

And they removed from Etham and turned unto the entering of Hiroth which is before Baalzephon, and pitched before Migdol.

And they departed from before Hiroth and went through the midst of the sea into the wilderness, and went three days journey in the wilderness of Etham, and pitched in Marah.

And they removed from Marah and went unto Elim where were twelve fountains and seventy palm trees and they pitched there.

And they removed from Elim and lay fast by the reed sea.

And they removed from the reed sea and lay in the wilderness of Zin.

And they took their journey out of the wilderness of Zin, and set up their tents in Dophkah.

And they departed from Dophkah, and lay in Alush.

And they removed from Alush, and lay at Rephidim, where was no water for the people to drink.

And they departed from Rephidim, and pitched in the wilderness of Sinai.

And they removed from the desert of Sinai, and lodged at the graves of lust.

And they departed from the sepulchres of lust, and lay at Hazeroth.

And they departed from Hazeroth, and pitched in Rithmah.

And they departed from Rimmonperez, and pitched in Libnah.

And they removed from Libnah, and pitched at Rissah.

And they journeyed from Rissah and pitched at Kehelathah.

And they went from Kehelatha, and pitched in mount Shepher.

And they removed from mount Shepher, and lay in Harada.

And they removed from Harada, and pitched in Makheloth.

And they removed from Makheloth, and lay at Tahath,

and they departed from Tahath and pitched at Tarah.

And they removed from Tarah, and pitched in Mithkah.

And they went from Mithkah, and lodged in Hashmonah.

And they departed from Hashmonah, and lay at Moseroth.

And they removed from the children of Jaakan, and lay at Horhaggidgad.

And they went from Horhaggidgad, and pitched in Jotbathah.
