33 And your children thall wander in the wildernels fourty years, and bear yr whoredoms, untill your carcafes be waited in the wilderness.

41 And Mofes faid, Wherefore now do you tranfgrefs the commandment of the LORD: But it thall not profper.

42 Go not up, for the LORD is not among you that ye be not fmieten before

44 But they prefumed to go up unto the hill-top: nevertheles, the ark of the covenant of the LORD, and Mofes departed not out of the camp.

45 Then the Amalekites came down, and the Canaanites which dwelt in that hill, and fmote them, and difcomfited them, even unto Hormah.

26 And it thall be forgiven all the congregation of the children of Ifrael, and the itranger that fojourneth among them; leeing all the people were in ignorance. 27 And if any foul fin through ignorance, then he fhall bring a fhe-goat of the first-year for a fin-offering.

And they rofe up before Mofes, with certain of the children of Ifrael, two hundred and fifty princes of the affembly, famous in the congregation, men of renown. 3 And they gathered themselves together again!t Moles, and against Aaron, and faid unto them, Ye take too much upon you, feeing all the congregation are holy every one of them, and the Lord is anieng them; Wherefore then lift you up your felves above the congregation of the LORD? 4 And when Moles heard it, he fell upon his face:

29 You fhall have one law for him that finneth through ignorance, both for him that is born asiongit the children of Ifrael,5 And he spake unto Korah, and unto all and for the stranger that fojourneth among his company, faying, Even to morrow the LORD will fhew who are his, and who is holy; and will caufe bim to come near unto him even him whom he hath cholen, will he caule to come near unto him.

30 But the foul that doth ought prefumptuonfly (whether be be born in the land, or a stranger) the fame reproacheth the LORD; and that foul fhall be cut off from among his people.

31 Because he hath despised the word of the LORD, and hath broken his command ment; that foul thall utterly be cut off; his iniquity fhall be upon him.

32 And while the children of Ifrael were in the wilderness, they found a man that gathered (ticks upon the fabbath day. 33 And they that found him gathering ticks, brought him unto Mofes and Aaron, and unto all the congregation.

34 And they put him in ward, becaufe it was not declared what should be done to him.

35 And the LORD faid unto Mofes, The man thall be furely put to death: all the congregation fhall ftone him with ftones without the camp.

35 And all the congregation brought him without the camp, and toned him with ftones, and he died; as the LORD commanded Moles.

37 And the LORD fpake unto Mofes, faying,

28 Speak unto the children of Ifrael, and bid them that they make them fringes in the borders of their garments, throughout their generations, and that they put upon the fringe of the borders a ribband of blue.

39 And it fhall be unto you for a fringe, that ye may look upon it, and remember all the commandments of the LORD, and do them and that ye feek not atter your own heart, and your own eyes, after which ye ufe to go a whoring:

40 That ye may remember, and do all my commandments, and be holy unto your God.

41 I am the LORD your God, which brought you out of the land or Egypt, to be your Gud: I am the LORD your God.

6 This do; take you cenfers, Korah, and all his company;

7 And put fire therein, and put incenfe in them before the LORD to morrow; and it shall be that the man whom the LORD doth chufe, he shall be holy; ye take too much upon you, ye fons of Levi.

8 And Mofes faid unto Korah, Hear, I pray you, ye fons of Levi:

9 Seemeth it but a fmall thing unto you, that the God of Ifrael hath feparated you from the congregation of Ifracl, to bring you near to himself, to do the fervice of the tabernacle of the LORD, and to stand before the congregation, to minifter unra them?

10. And he hath brought thee near to bim, and all thy brethren the tons of Levi with thee: and feek ye the prieft-hood allo?

11 For which caufe both thou, and all thy company are gathered together againit the LORD: and what is Aaron, that ye murmur against him?

12 11 And Mofes fent to call Dathan and Abiram, the lons of Eliab : which faid, We will not come up.

13 Is it a fruall thing that thou haft brought us up out of a land that floweth with milk and honey, to kill us in the wilderness, except thou make thy felt altogether a prince over ns?

14 Moreover, thou haft not brought us into a land that floweth with milk and honey, or given us inheritance of fields and vineyards: Wilt thou put out the eyes of thefe men? we will not come up.

15 And Mofes was very wroth, and faid unto the LORD, Refpeét not thou their offering: I have not taken one afs trom them, neither have I hurt one of them.

16 And Mofes faid unto Korah, Be thou and all thy company betore the LORD, thou, and they, and Aaron to Morrow;

17 And take every man his center, and

put incenfe in them, and bring ye before the Lord every man his cenfer, two hundred and fifty centers; thou alfo and Aaron each of you his cenfer.

18 And they took every man his cenfer, and put tire in them, and laid incenfe thereon, and ftood in the door of the tabernacle of the congregation with Mofes and Aaron.

19 And Korah gathered all the congre gation against them, unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation: and the glory of the LORD appeared unto all the congregation.

20 And the LORD fpake unto Mofes, and unto Aaron, faying,

21 Separate your elves from among this congregation, that I may confume them in a moment.

22 And they fell upon their faces, and faid, O God, the God of the (pirits of all flesh, hall one man fin, and wilt thou be wroth with all the congregation?

23 And the LORD fpake unto Mofes, faying,

24 Speak unto the congregation, faying, Get you up from about the tabernacle of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram.

25 And Mofes rofe up, and went unto Dathan and Abiram; and the elders of Ifrael followed him.

25 And he spake unto the congregation, faying, Depart, I pray you, from the tents of there wicked men, and touch nothing of theirs, left ye be confumed in all their fins. 27 So they got up from the tabernacle of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram on every fide : and Dathan and Abiram came out, & ftood in the door of their tents, and their wives, and their fons, and their little children.

28 And Mofes faid; Hereby ye fhall know that the Lord hath fent me to do all there works: for I have not done them of mine own mind.

29 If thefe men die the common death of all men, or if they be vifited after the vifitation of all men; then the Lord hath not fent me.

30 But if the LORD make a new thing, and the earth open her mouth, and fwallow them up, with all that appertain unto them, and they go down quick into the pit; then ye shall understand that thefe men have provoked the LORD.

38 The cenfers of thefe finners against their own fouls,let them make them broad plates for a covering of the altar: for they' offered them before the LORD, therefore they are hallowed and they fhall be a fign unto the children of Ifrael.

39 And Eleazar the priest took the brafen cenfers, wherewith they that were burnt had offered; and they were made broad plates for a covering of the altar:

40 To be a memorial unto the children of Ifrael, that no ftranger, which is not of the feed of Aaron, come near to offer incenfe before the LORD; that he be not as Korab, and as his company as the Lord faid to him by the hand of Mofes.

411But on the morrow, all the congregation of the children of Ifrael murmured against Motes, and against Aaron, faying, Ye have killed the poople of the LORD.

42 And it came to pais when the congregation was gathered againit Mofes and againit Aaron, that they looked toward the tabernacle of the congregation: and behold, the cloud covered it, and the glory of the LORD appeared.

43 And Mofes and Aaron came before the tabernacle of the congregation.

44 1 And the LORD ipake unto Mofes, faying,

45 Get you up from among this congregation, that I may confame them as in a moment: and they fell upon their faces. 46 11 And Mofes faid unto Aaron,Take a cenfer; and put fire therein from off the altar, and put on incenfe, and go quickly unto the congregation, and make an atone-. ment for them; for there swrath gone out from the LORD; the plague is begun.

47 And Aaron took as Mofes commanded, and ran into the midit of the congregation; and behold, the plague was begun among the people: and he put on incente, and made an atonement for the people.

48 And he stood between the dead and the living, and the plague was stayed.

49 Now they y died in the plague, were fourteen thousand & leven hundred.befide them that died about the matter of Korah.

6 And Moles fpake unto the children of Ifrael, and every one of their princes gave him a rod a piece; for each prince one according to their fathers houfes, even twelve rods: and the rod of Aaron Was among their rods,

7 And Mofes laid up the rods before the LORD in the tabernacle of witness.

8 And it came to pafs that on the morrow Mofes went into the tabernacle of witnels; and behold, the rod of Aaron for the houte of Levi was budded, and brought forth buds, and bloomed bloffoms, and yielded almonds.

And Mofes brought out all the rods from before the LORD unto all the children of Ifrael: and they looked, and took every man his rod.

10 And the Lord faid unto Mofes, Bring Aarons rod again, before the teftimony, to be kept for a token against the rebels; and thou fhalt quite take away their murmurings from me, that they die not.

And Mofes did fo: as the LORD commanded him, fo did he.
