4. And when Moses heard it, he fell upon his face:
5. And he spoke unto Korah and unto all his company, saying, Even tomorrow the LORD will show who are his, and who is holy; and will cause him to come near unto him: even him whom he has chosen will he cause to come near unto him.
6. This do; Take you censers, Korah, and all his company;
7. And put fire in them, and put incense in them before the LORD tomorrow: and it shall be that the man whom the LORD does choose, he shall be holy: you take too much upon you, you sons of Levi.
8. And Moses said unto Korah, Hear, I pray you, you sons of Levi:
9. Seems it but a small thing unto you, that the God of Israel has separated you from the congregation of Israel, to bring you near to himself to do the service of the tabernacle of the LORD, and to stand before the congregation to minister unto them?
10. And he has brought you near to him, and all your brethren the sons of Levi with you: and seek you the priesthood also?
11. For which cause both you and all your company are gathered together against the LORD: and what is Aaron, that you murmur against him?
12. And Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab: who said, We will not come up:
13. Is it a small thing that you have brought us up out of a land that flows with milk and honey, to kill us in the wilderness, that you make yourself altogether a prince over us?
14. Moreover you have not brought us into a land that flows with milk and honey, or given us inheritance of fields and vineyards: will you put out the eyes of these men? we will not come up.
