1 Korah son of Izhar, Dathan and Abiram sons of Eliab, and On son of Peleth dared to challenge Moses. Korah was a descendant of Kohath and Levi. Dathan, Abiram, and On were descendants of Reuben.
2 These four men were joined by two hundred and fifty Israelite men, well known leaders of the congregation. The assembly chose them.
3 They came together to confront Moses and Aaron. They said: »You have gone far enough! Everyone in the whole congregation is holy. Jehovah is among them. Why do you set yourselves above Jehovah’s assembly?«
4 When Moses heard this, he bowed with his face touching the ground.
5 Then he said to Korah and all his followers: »In the morning Jehovah will show who belongs to him, who is holy. He will have that person come near him. Only the person Jehovah chooses will be allowed to come near him.
6 »Korah, you and all your followers must do this tomorrow: Take incense burners,
7 »Put burning coals and incense in them in Jehovah’s presence. Jehovah will choose the man who is holy. You have gone far enough!«
