Numbers 16:35
Compare all
33 So they and all those with them went down alive into the pit; the earth closed over them, and they perished from among the assembly.
34 Then all Israel who were around them fled at their cry, for they said, “Lest the earth swallow us up also!”
35 And aa fire came out from the Lord and consumed the two hundred and fifty men who were offering incense.  
36 Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
37 “Tell Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, to pick up the censers out of the blaze, for athey are holy, and scatter the fire some distance away.  
38 The censers of athese men who sinned against their own souls, let them be made into hammered plates as a covering for the altar. Because they presented them before the Lord, therefore they are holy; band they shall be a sign to the children of Israel.”  
39 So Eleazar the priest took the bronze censers, which those who were burned up had presented, and they were hammered out as a covering on the altar,
40 to be a1 memorial to the children of Israel athat no outsider, who is not a descendant of Aaron, should come near to offer incense before the Lord, that he might not become like Korah and his companions, just as the Lord had said to him through Moses.  

Complaints of the People

41 On the next day aall the congregation of the children of Israel complained against Moses and Aaron, saying, “You have killed the people of the Lord.”  
42 Now it happened, when the congregation had gathered against Moses and Aaron, that they turned toward the tabernacle of meeting; and suddenly athe cloud covered it, and the glory of the Lord appeared.  
43 Then Moses and Aaron came before the tabernacle of meeting.
44 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
45 “Get away from among this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment.” And they fell on their faces.
