Numbers 16:4-11
1599 Geneva Bible
4 But when Moses heard it, he fell upon his face,
5 And spake to Korah and unto all his company, saying, Tomorrow the Lord will show who is his, and who is holy, and who ought to approach near unto him: and whom he hath [a]chosen, he will cause to come near to him.
6 This do therefore, Take you censers, both Korah and all his company,
7 And put fire therein, and put incense in them before the Lord tomorrow: and the man whom the Lord doth choose, the same shall be holy: [b]ye take too much upon you, ye sons of Levi.
8 Again Moses said unto Korah, Hear, I pray you, ye sons of Levi.
9 Seemeth it a small thing unto you, that the God of Israel hath separated you from the multitude of Israel, to take you near to himself, to do the service of the Tabernacle of the Lord, and to stand before the Congregation, and to minister unto them?
10 He hath also taken thee to [c]him, and all thy brethren, the sons of Levi with thee, and seek ye the office of the Priest also?
11 For which cause, thou, and all thy company are gathered together against the Lord: and what is Aaron, that ye murmur against him?
