Numbers 16:37-40

Legacy Standard Bible

³⁷ “Say to Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, that he shall take up the censers out of the midst of the ^[a]blaze, and you scatter ^[b]the burning coals abroad; for they are holy. ³⁸ As for the censers of these ^[c]men who have sinned at the cost of their lives, make them into hammered sheets for a plating of the altar, since they brought them near before Yahweh, and they are holy; and ^(A)they shall be for a sign to the sons of Israel.” ³⁹ So Eleazar the priest took the bronze censers which the men who were burned had brought near, and they hammered them out as a plating for the altar, ⁴⁰ as a ^[d]memorial to the sons of Israel that ^(B)no ^[e]outsider who is not of the seed of Aaron should come near ^(C)to burn incense before Yahweh; so that he will not become like Korah and his congregation—just as Yahweh had spoken to him by the hand of Moses.
