¶ But on the morrow all the congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron, saying, Ye have killed the people of the Lord.
And it came to pass, when the congregation was gathered against Moses and against Aaron, that they looked toward the tabernacle of the congregation: and, behold, the cloud covered it, and the glory of the Lord appeared.
And Moses and Aaron came before the tabernacle of the congregation.
¶ And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
Get you up from among this congregation, that I may consume them as in a moment. And they fell upon their faces.
¶ And Moses said unto Aaron, Take a censer, and put fire therein from off the altar, and put on incense, and go quickly unto the congregation, and make an atonement for them: for there is wrath gone out from the Lord; the plague is begun.
And Aaron took as Moses commanded, and ran into the midst of the congregation; and, behold, the plague was begun among the people: and he put on incense, and made an atonement for the people.

    1NOW Korah, the son of Izhar, the son of Kohath, the son of Levi, and Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, and On, the son of Peleth, sons of Reuben, took men:

    2And they rose up before Moses, with certain of the children of Israel, two hundred and fifty princes of the assembly, famous in the congregation, men of renown:

    3And they gathered themselves together against Moses and against Aaron, and said unto them, Ye take too much upon you, seeing all the congregation are holy, every one of them, and the Lord is among them: wherefore then lift ye up yourselves above the congregation of the Lord?

    4And when Moses heard it, he fell upon his face:

    5And he spake unto Korah and unto all his company, saying, Even to morrow the Lord will shew who are his, and who is holy; and will cause him to come near unto him: even him whom he hath chosen will he cause to come near unto him.

    6This do; Take you censers, Korah, and all his company;

    7And put fire therein, and put incense in them before the Lord to morrow: and it shall be that the man whom the Lord doth choose, he shall be holy: ye take too much upon you, ye sons of Levi.

  4. Psalms 106:25–48Rank 4 from verse 41
    Open

    25But murmured in their tents, and hearkened not unto the voice of the Lord.

    26Therefore he lifted up his hand against them, to overthrow them in the wilderness:

    27To overthrow their seed also among the nations, and to scatter them in the lands.

    28They joined themselves also unto Baal-peor, and ate the sacrifices of the dead.

    29Thus they provoked him to anger with their inventions: and the plague brake in upon them.

    30Then stood up Phinehas, and executed judgment: and so the plague was stayed.

    31And that was counted unto him for righteousness unto all generations for evermore.

    32They angered him also at the waters of strife, so that it went ill with Moses for their sakes:

    33Because they provoked his spirit, so that he spake unadvisedly with his lips.

    34They did not destroy the nations, concerning whom the Lord commanded them:

    35But were mingled among the heathen, and learned their works.

    36And they served their idols: which were a snare unto them.

    37Yea, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters unto devils,

    38And shed innocent blood, even the blood of their sons and of their daughters, whom they sacrificed unto the idols of Canaan: and the land was polluted with blood.

    39Thus were they defiled with their own works, and went a whoring with their own inventions.

    40Therefore was the wrath of the Lord kindled against his people, insomuch that he abhorred his own inheritance.

    41And he gave them into the hand of the heathen; and they that hated them ruled over them.

    42Their enemies also oppressed them, and they were brought into subjection under their hand.

    43Many times did he deliver them; but they provoked him with their counsel, and were brought low for their iniquity.

    44Nevertheless he regarded their affliction, when he heard their cry:

    45And he remembered for them his covenant, and repented according to the multitude of his mercies.

    46He made them also to be pitied of all those that carried them captives.

    47Save us, O Lord our God, and gather us from among the heathen, to give thanks unto thy holy name, and to triumph in thy praise.

    48Blessed be the Lord God of Israel from everlasting to everlasting: and let all the people say, Amen. Praise ye the Lord.
