15. Then Moses became very angry and said to Adonai, “Do not accept their offering. I haven’t taken from them a single donkey, nor have I wronged one of them!”
16. So Moses said to Korah, “You and your whole following are to appear before Adonai—you, they and Aaron—tomorrow!
17. Each man will take his censer and you are to put incense into them—250 censers total. You are to present it before Adonai, you and Aaron each presenting his censer.”
18. So each man took his censer, put fire and incense into it, and stood with Moses and Aaron at the entrance of the Tent of Meeting.
19. When Korah and all his following had assembled in opposition to them at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting, then the glory of Adonai appeared to the entire assembly.
20. Then Adonai spoke to Moses and Aaron saying,
21. “Separate yourselves from among this assembly, so that I may consume them at once!”
22. But they fell on their faces and cried out, “O God, God of the spirits of all flesh, if one man sins, will you be angry with the entire community?”
23. Then Adonai spoke to Moses saying,
24. “Speak to the assembly saying, ‘Move away from the dwelling of Korah, Dathan and Abiram!’”
25. Moses got up and went to Dathan and Abiram. The elders of Israel followed after him.
26. He warned the assembly saying, “Move away from the tents of these wicked men! Don’t touch anything that is theirs, or you will be swept away because of all their sins!”
27. So they moved away from near the dwelling of Korah, Dathan and Abiram. Dathan and Abiram came outside and were standing at the entrance of their tents with their wives, their children, and their little ones.
28. Moses said, “By this you will know that Adonai has sent me to do all these works, that they are not from my own heart.
29. If every one of these men die a common death and experience what happens to all people, then Adonai has not sent me.
30. But if Adonai brings about a new thing, and the earth opens her mouth and swallows them and everything that is theirs, and they go down alive into Sheol, then you will know that these men have despised Adonai.”
