Numbers 16:4-10 Amplified Bible (AMP)

4. And when Moses heard it, he fell upon his face.

5. And he said to Korah and all his company, In the morning the Lord will show who are His and who is holy, and will cause him to come near to Him; him whom He has chosen will He cause to come near to Him. [II Tim. 2:19.]

6. Do this: Take censers, Korah and all your company,

7. And put fire in them and put incense upon them before the Lord tomorrow; and the man whom the Lord chooses shall be holy. You take too much upon yourselves, you sons of Levi.

8. And Moses said to Korah, Hear, I pray you, you sons of Levi:

9. Does it seem but a small thing to you that the God of Israel has separated you from the congregation of Israel, to bring you near to Himself to do the service of the tabernacle of the Lord and to stand before the congregation to minister to them,

10. And that He has brought you near to Him, and all your brethren the sons of Levi with you? Would you seek the priesthood also?
