Too much for you ye sons of Levi! And Moses said unto Korah, - Hear, I pray you, ye sons of Levi! Is it too small a thing for you that the God of Israel hath separated you from the assembly of Israel, to bring you near unto himself, - to do the laborious work of the habitation of Yahweh, and to stand before the assembly, to wait upon them? But having brought thee near, and all thy brethren the sons of Levi with thee, must ye seek priesthood also? Wherefore thou and all thine assembly, are conspiring against Yahweh, - But Aaron, what is he, that ye should murmur against him? Then sent Moses, to call for Dathan and for Abiram sons of Eliab, - and they said We will not come up: Was it, a small thing, that thou didst bring us up out of land flowing with milk and honey, to put us to death in the desert but thou must, continue even to lord it, over us? Certainly not into a land flowing with milk and honey, hast thou brought us, nor given unto us an inheritance of field and vineyard, - The eyes of those men, wilt thou dig out? We will not come up. Then was Moses very angry, and he said unto Yahweh, Do not thou have respect unto their meal-offering. Not one ass, from them, have I taken, neither have I wronged one of them. And Moses said unto Korah, Thou, and all thine assembly, come ye before Yahweh, - thou, and they, and Aaron to-morrow.

Speak unto the assembly, saying, - Get ye up from round about the habitation of Korah, Dathan and Abiram. So Moses rose up, and went, unto Dathan and Abiram, - then went, after him the eiders of Israel. And he spake unto the assembly, saying - Remove I pray you from beside the tents of these lawless men, and do not touch aught that pertaineth unto them, - lest ye be carried off, in all their sins. So they went up from beside the habitation of Korah, Dathan and Abiram on every side, - and, Dathan and Abiram, came out and stationed themselves at the entrance of their tents, with their wives and their sons and their little ones. Then said Moses, Hereby, shall ye know, that, Yahweh hath sent me, to do all these works, - verily, not out of my own heart: If, as all human beings die, these do die, and the visitation of all human beings, be visited upon them, Yahweh, hath not sent me. But, if, a cremation, Yahweh create, and the ground open wide her mouth and swallow them up, with all that pertain unto them, and so they go down alive unto hades, then shall ye know, that these men have despised Yahweh. And it came to pass as he made an end of speaking all these words, that the ground which was under them, clave asunder; and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up them, and their households, - and all the human beings who pertained unto Korah, with all their goods: so, they, and all that pertained unto them, went down, alive unto hades, - and the earth, closed pen them, and they perished out of the midst of the convocation. And, all Israel who were round about them, fled at their cry, - for they said, Lest the earth swallow us up. Fire also came forth, from Yahweh, - and consumed the two hundred and fifty men, who offered the incense.

And they fell upon their faces and said, O GOD, the God of the spirits of all flesh, - shall, one man, sin, and against all the assembly, wilt thou he wroth. Speak unto the assembly, saying, - Get ye up from round about the habitation of Korah, Dathan and Abiram. So Moses rose up, and went, unto Dathan and Abiram, - then went, after him the eiders of Israel. And he spake unto the assembly, saying - Remove I pray you from beside the tents of these lawless men, and do not touch aught that pertaineth unto them, - lest ye be carried off, in all their sins. So they went up from beside the habitation of Korah, Dathan and Abiram on every side, - and, Dathan and Abiram, came out and stationed themselves at the entrance of their tents, with their wives and their sons and their little ones. Then said Moses, Hereby, shall ye know, that, Yahweh hath sent me, to do all these works, - verily, not out of my own heart: If, as all human beings die, these do die, and the visitation of all human beings, be visited upon them, Yahweh, hath not sent me. But, if, a cremation, Yahweh create, and the ground open wide her mouth and swallow them up, with all that pertain unto them, and so they go down alive unto hades, then shall ye know, that these men have despised Yahweh. And it came to pass as he made an end of speaking all these words, that the ground which was under them, clave asunder; and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up them, and their households, - and all the human beings who pertained unto Korah, with all their goods: so, they, and all that pertained unto them, went down, alive unto hades, - and the earth, closed pen them, and they perished out of the midst of the convocation. And, all Israel who were round about them, fled at their cry, - for they said, Lest the earth swallow us up. Fire also came forth, from Yahweh, - and consumed the two hundred and fifty men, who offered the incense.
And, when Moses heard it, he fell upon his face. Then spake he unto Korah, and unto all his assembly, saying, In the morning, will Yahweh make known who are his, and who is the holy one and will cause him to come near unto himself, - yea him whom he shall choose, will he cause to come near unto himself. This do, - Take to you censers, Korah and all his assembly; and place therein fire, and put thereon incense before Yahweh, to-morrow, So shall it be - that, the man whom Yahweh shall choose, he shall be the holy one. Too much for you ye sons of Levi! And Moses said unto Korah, - Hear, I pray you, ye sons of Levi! Is it too small a thing for you that the God of Israel hath separated you from the assembly of Israel, to bring you near unto himself, - to do the laborious work of the habitation of Yahweh, and to stand before the assembly, to wait upon them? But having brought thee near, and all thy brethren the sons of Levi with thee, must ye seek priesthood also? Wherefore thou and all thine assembly, are conspiring against Yahweh, - But Aaron, what is he, that ye should murmur against him? Then sent Moses, to call for Dathan and for Abiram sons of Eliab, - and they said We will not come up: Was it, a small thing, that thou didst bring us up out of land flowing with milk and honey, to put us to death in the desert but thou must, continue even to lord it, over us? Certainly not into a land flowing with milk and honey, hast thou brought us, nor given unto us an inheritance of field and vineyard, - The eyes of those men, wilt thou dig out? We will not come up. Then was Moses very angry, and he said unto Yahweh, Do not thou have respect unto their meal-offering. Not one ass, from them, have I taken, neither have I wronged one of them. And Moses said unto Korah, Thou, and all thine assembly, come ye before Yahweh, - thou, and they, and Aaron to-morrow. And take ye each man his censer and put thereon incense, then shall ye bring near before Yahweh, each man his censer, two hundred and fifty Censers, - and, thou and Aaron, each man his censer. So they took each man his censer and put thereon fire, and placed thereon incense, - and took their stand at the entrance of the tent of meeting with Moses and Aaron. And Korah gathered together against them all the assembly, unto the entrance of the tent of meeting, - then appeared the glory of Yahweh, unto all the assembly. Separate yourselves out of the midst of this assembly, - that I may consume them in a moment. And they fell upon their faces and said, O GOD, the God of the spirits of all flesh, - shall, one man, sin, and against all the assembly, wilt thou he wroth. Speak unto the assembly, saying, - Get ye up from round about the habitation of Korah, Dathan and Abiram. So Moses rose up, and went, unto Dathan and Abiram, - then went, after him the eiders of Israel.

So they went up from beside the habitation of Korah, Dathan and Abiram on every side, - and, Dathan and Abiram, came out and stationed themselves at the entrance of their tents, with their wives and their sons and their little ones.

And, all Israel who were round about them, fled at their cry, - for they said, Lest the earth swallow us up. Fire also came forth, from Yahweh, - and consumed the two hundred and fifty men, who offered the incense.
