Amplified Bible

Numbers 16:22-30 Amplified Bible (AMP)

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.

27. So they got away from around the tents of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram. And Dathan and Abiram came out and stood in the door of their tents with their wives, and their sons, and their little ones.

28. And Moses said, By this you shall know that the Lord has sent me to do all these works, for I do not act of my own accord:

29. If these men die the common death of all men or if [only] what happens to everyone happens to them, then the Lord has not sent me.

30. But if the Lord causes a new thing [to happen], and the earth opens its mouth and swallows them up, with all that belongs to them, and they go down alive into Sheol (the place of the dead), then you shall understand that these men have provoked (spurned, despised) the Lord!
