Numbers 16:40-45 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

40. it was a memorial for the Israelites, so that no strange man who is not from the offspring of Aaron should approach the presence of Yahweh to burn a smoke offering; he will not be like Korah and his company, just as Yahweh had spoken to him by the hand of Moses.

41. The next day all the community of the Israelites grumbled against Moses and Aaron, saying, “You have killed the people of Yahweh!”

42. Then, when the community had gathered against Moses and Aaron, they turned to the tent of assembly, and behold, the cloud covered it, and the glory of Yahweh appeared.

43. And Moses and Aaron came to the front of the tent of assembly,

44. and Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

45. “Get away from the midst of this community, and I will finish them in an instant,” but they fell on their faces.
