Numbers 16:6-14 World English Bible (WEB)

6. Do this: take censers, Korah, and all his company;

7. and put fire in them, and put incense on them before Yahweh tomorrow. It shall be that the man whom Yahweh chooses, he shall be holy. You have gone too far, you sons of Levi!”

8. Moses said to Korah, “Hear now, you sons of Levi!

9. Is it a small thing to 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 Yahweh’s tabernacle, and to stand before the congregation to minister to them;

10. and that he has brought you near, and all your brothers the sons of Levi with you? Do you seek the priesthood also?

11. Therefore you and all your company have gathered together against Yahweh! What is Aaron that you murmur against him?”

12. Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab; and they said, “We won’t come up!

13. Is it a small thing that you have brought us up out of a land flowing with milk and honey, to kill us in the wilderness, but you must also make yourself a prince over us?

14. Moreover you haven’t brought us into a land flowing with milk and honey, nor given us inheritance of fields and vineyards. Will you put out the eyes of these men? We won’t come up.”
