Sirach 45:18-22 World English Bible (WEB)

18. Strangers gathered themselves together against him, And envied him in the wilderness, Even Dathan and Abiram with their company, And the congregation of Korah, with wrath and anger.

19. The Lord saw it, and it displeased him; And in the wrath of his anger they were destroyed: He did wonders upon them, To consume them with flaming fire.

20. And he added glory to Aaron, And gave him a heritage: He divided to him the first fruits of the increase; And first did he prepare bread in abundance:

21. For they shall eat the sacrifices of the Lord, Which he gave to him and to his seed.

22. Howbeit in the land of the people he shall have no inheritance, And he has no portion among the people: For he himself is your portion and inheritance.
