Numbers 16:12-26 Amplified Bible (AMP)

12. And Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, and they said, We will not come up.

13. Is it a small thing that you have brought us up out of a land flowing with milk and honey to kill us in the wilderness, but you must also make yourself a prince over us?

14. Moreover, you have not brought us into a land that flows with milk and honey or given us an inheritance of fields and vineyards. Will you bore out the eyes of these men? We will not come up!

15. And Moses was very angry and said to the Lord, Do not respect their offering! I have not taken one donkey from them, nor have I hurt one of them.

16. And Moses said to Korah, You and all your company be before the Lord tomorrow, you and they and Aaron.

17. And let every man take his censer and put incense upon it and bring before the Lord every man his censer, 250 censers; you also and Aaron, each his censer.

18. So they took every man his censer, and they put fire in them and laid incense upon it, and they stood at the entrance of the Tent of Meeting with Moses and Aaron.

19. Then Korah assembled all the congregation against Moses and Aaron before the entrance of the Tent of Meeting, and the glory of the Lord appeared to all the congregation.

20. And the Lord said to Moses and Aaron,

21. Separate yourselves from among this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment.

22. 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?

23. And the Lord said to Moses,

24. Say to the congregation, Get away from around the tents of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram.

25. Then Moses rose up and went to Dathan and Abiram, and the elders of Israel followed him.

26. And he said to the congregation, Depart, I pray you, from the tents of these wicked men, and touch nothing of theirs, lest you be consumed in all their sins.
