Numbers 16:47-49

Good News Translation

⁴⁷ Aaron obeyed, took his fire pan and ran into the middle of the assembled people. When he saw that the plague had already begun, he put the incense on the coals and performed the ritual of purification for the people. ⁴⁸ This stopped the plague, and he was left standing between the living and the dead. ⁴⁹ The number of people who died was 14,700, not counting those who died in Korah's rebellion.
