9. Isn’t it enough for you that the God of Israel has separated you from the rest of the Israelite community and brought you near himself to do the work at the Lord’s tabernacle and to stand before the community and minister to them?
10. He has brought you and all your fellow Levites near himself, but now you are trying to get the priesthood too.
11. It is against the Lord that you and all your followers have banded together. Who is Aaron that you should grumble against him?”
12. Then Moses summoned Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab. But they said, “We will not come!
13. Isn’t it enough that you have brought us up out of a land flowing with milk and honey to kill us in the wilderness? And now you also want to lord it over us!
14. Moreover, you haven’t brought us into a land flowing with milk and honey or given us an inheritance of fields and vineyards. Do you want to treat these men like slaves ? No, we will not come!”
