Numbers 16:47-50 Common English Bible (CEB)

47. Aaron took it as Moses said and ran into the middle of the assembly, for the plague had already begun among the people. He burned incense and sought reconciliation for the people.

48. He stood between the dead and the living, and the plague stopped.

49. Those who died from the plague were fourteen thousand seven hundred, in addition to those who died because of Korah.

50. Aaron returned to Moses at the entrance of the meeting tent once the plague stopped.
