Numbers 16:18-28 World English Bible (WEB)

18. They each took his censer, and put fire in them, and laid incense on it, and stood at the door of the Tent of Meeting with Moses and Aaron.

19. Korah assembled all the congregation opposite them to the door of the Tent of Meeting. Yahweh’s glory appeared to all the congregation.

20. Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,

21. “Separate yourselves from among this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment!”

22. They fell on their faces, and said, “God, the God of the spirits of all flesh, shall one man sin, and will you be angry with all the congregation?”

23. Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

24. “Speak to the congregation, saying, ‘Get away from around the tent of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram!’”

25. Moses rose up and went to Dathan and Abiram; and the elders of Israel followed him.

26. He spoke to the congregation, saying, “Depart, please, from the tents of these wicked men, and touch nothing of theirs, lest you be consumed in all their sins!”

27. So they went away from the tent of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram, on every side. Dathan and Abiram came out, and stood at the door of their tents, with their wives, their sons, and their little ones.

28. Moses said, “Hereby you shall know that Yahweh has sent me to do all these works; for they are not from my own mind.
