41 The next day the whole congregation of Israel complained to Moses and Aaron. They said: »You have killed Jehovah’s people.«
42 The congregation came together to confront Moses and Aaron. When they turned toward the tent of meeting, they saw the smoke covering it, and the glory of Jehovah appeared.
43 Then Moses and Aaron went to the front of the tent of meeting.
44 Jehovah said to Moses:
45 »Get away from these people, and let me destroy them in an instant! Immediately, they bowed with their faces touching the ground.«
46 Moses said to Aaron: »Take your incense burner, put burning coals from the altar and incense in it, and go quickly into the congregation to make peace with Jehovah for the people. Jehovah shows his anger! A plague has started.«
47 Aaron took his incense burner, as Moses told him. He ran into the middle of the assembly, because the plague had already begun among the people. He put incense on the incense burner to make peace with Jehovah for the people.
