New International Version

Numbers 16:17-24 New International Version (NIV)

17. Each man is to take his censer and put incense in it—250 censers in all—and present it before the Lord. You and Aaron are to present your censers also.”

18. So each of them took his censer, put burning coals and incense in it, and stood with Moses and Aaron at the entrance to the tent of meeting.

19. When Korah had gathered all his followers in opposition to them at the entrance to the tent of meeting, the glory of the Lord appeared to the entire assembly.

20. The Lord said to Moses and Aaron,

21. “Separate yourselves from this assembly so I can put an end to them at once.”

22. But Moses and Aaron fell facedown and cried out, “O God, the God who gives breath to all living things, will you be angry with the entire assembly when only one man sins?”

23. Then the Lord said to Moses,

24. “Say to the assembly, ‘Move away from the tents of Korah, Dathan and Abiram.’ ”
