Exodus 19:3-17
New King James Version
3 And (A)Moses went up to God, and the Lord (B)called to him from the mountain, saying, “Thus you shall say to the house of Jacob, and tell the children of Israel: 4 (C)‘You have seen what I did to the Egyptians, and how (D)I [a]bore you on eagles’ wings and brought you to Myself. 5 Now (E)therefore, if you will indeed obey My voice and (F)keep My covenant, then (G)you shall be a special treasure to Me above all people; for all the earth is (H)Mine. 6 And you shall be to Me a (I)kingdom of priests and a (J)holy nation.’ These are the words which you shall speak to the children of Israel.”
7 So Moses came and called for the (K)elders of the people, and [b]laid before them all these words which the Lord commanded him. 8 Then (L)all the people answered together and said, “All that the Lord has spoken we will do.” So Moses brought back the words of the people to the Lord. 9 And the Lord said to Moses, “Behold, I come to you (M)in the thick cloud, (N)that the people may hear when I speak with you, and believe you forever.”
So Moses told the words of the people to the Lord.
10 Then the Lord said to Moses, “Go to the people and (O)consecrate them today and tomorrow, and let them wash their clothes. 11 And let them be ready for the third day. For on the third day the Lord will come down upon Mount Sinai in the sight of all the people. 12 You shall set bounds for the people all around, saying, ‘Take heed to yourselves that you do not go up to the mountain or touch its base. (P)Whoever touches the mountain shall surely be put to death. 13 Not a hand shall touch him, but he shall surely be stoned or shot with an arrow; whether man or beast, he shall not live.’ When the trumpet sounds long, they shall come near the mountain.”
14 So Moses went down from the mountain to the people and sanctified the people, and they washed their clothes. 15 And he said to the people, “Be ready for the third day; (Q)do not come near your wives.”
16 Then it came to pass on the third day, in the morning, that there were (R)thunderings and lightnings, and a thick cloud on the mountain; and the sound of the trumpet was very loud, so that all the people who were in the camp (S)trembled. 17 And (T)Moses brought the people out of the camp to meet with God, and they stood at the foot of the mountain.

(C)“The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart” (that is, the word of faith which we preach): 9 that (D)if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

5 For (A)He established a testimony in Jacob,

Which He commanded our fathers,
That (B)they should make them known to their children;
6 (C)That the generation to come might know them,
The children who would be born,
That they may arise and declare them to their children,
7 That they may set their hope in God,
And not forget the works of God,
But keep His commandments;
8 And (D)may not be like their fathers,
(E)A stubborn and rebellious generation,
A generation (F)that did not [a]set its heart aright,
And whose spirit was not faithful to God.
9 The children of Ephraim, being armed and [b]carrying bows,
Turned back in the day of battle.

Complaints of the People
41 On the next day (A)all the congregation of the children of Israel complained against Moses and Aaron, saying, “You have killed the people of the Lord.” 42 Now it happened, when the congregation had gathered against Moses and Aaron, that they turned toward the tabernacle of meeting; and suddenly (B)the cloud covered it, and the glory of the Lord appeared.

Numbers 16:3-35
New King James Version
3 (A)They gathered together against Moses and Aaron, and said to them, “You [a]take too much upon yourselves, for (B)all the congregation is holy, every one of them, (C)and the Lord is among them. Why then do you exalt yourselves above the assembly of the Lord?”
4 So when Moses heard it, he (D)fell on his face; 5 and he spoke to Korah and all his company, saying, “Tomorrow morning the Lord will show who is (E)His and who is (F)holy,[b] and will cause him to come near to Him. That one whom He chooses He will cause to (G)come near to Him. 6 Do this: Take censers, Korah and all your company; 7 put fire in them and put incense in them before the Lord tomorrow, and it shall be that the man whom the Lord chooses is the holy one. You take too much upon yourselves, you sons of Levi!”
8 Then Moses said to Korah, “Hear now, you sons of Levi: 9 Is it (H)a small thing to you that the God of Israel has (I)separated you from the congregation of Israel, to bring you near to Himself, to do the work of the tabernacle of the Lord, and to stand before the congregation to serve them; 10 and that He has brought you near to Himself, you and all your brethren, the sons of Levi, with you? And are you seeking the priesthood also? 11 Therefore you and all your company are gathered together against the Lord. (J)And what is Aaron that you complain against him?”
12 And Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram the sons of Eliab, but they said, “We will not come up! 13 Is it a small thing that you have brought us up out of (K)a land flowing with milk and honey, to kill us in the wilderness, that you should (L)keep acting like a prince over us? 14 Moreover (M)you have not brought us into (N)a land flowing with milk and honey, nor given us inheritance of fields and vineyards. Will you put out the eyes of these men? We will not come up!”
15 Then Moses was very angry, and said to the Lord, (O)“Do not [c]respect their offering. (P)I have not taken one donkey from them, nor have I hurt one of them.”
16 And Moses said to Korah, “Tomorrow, you and all your company be present (Q)before the Lord—you and they, as well as Aaron. 17 Let each take his censer and put incense in it, and each of you bring his censer before the Lord, two hundred and fifty censers; both you and Aaron, each with his censer.” 18 So every man took his censer, put fire in it, laid incense on it, and stood at the door of the tabernacle of meeting with Moses and Aaron. 19 And Korah gathered all the congregation against them at the door of the tabernacle of meeting. Then (R)the glory of the Lord appeared to all the congregation.
20 And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying, 21 (S)“Separate yourselves from among this congregation, that I may (T)consume them in a moment.”
22 Then they (U)fell[d] on their faces, and said, “O God, (V)the God of the spirits of all flesh, shall one man sin, and You be angry with all the (W)congregation?”
23 So the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 24 “Speak to the congregation, saying, ‘Get away from the tents of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram.’ ”
25 Then Moses rose and went to Dathan and Abiram, and the elders of Israel followed him. 26 And he spoke to the congregation, saying, (X)“Depart now from the tents of these wicked men! Touch nothing of theirs, lest you be consumed in all their sins.” 27 So they got away from around the tents of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram; and Dathan and Abiram came out and stood at the door of their tents, with their wives, their sons, and their little (Y)children.
28 And Moses said: (Z)“By this you shall know that the Lord has sent me to do all these works, for I have not done them (AA)of my own will. 29 If these men die naturally like all men, or if they are (AB)visited by the common fate of all men, then the Lord has not sent me. 30 But if the Lord creates (AC)a new thing, and the earth opens its mouth and swallows them up with all that belongs to them, and they (AD)go down alive into the pit, then you will understand that these men have rejected the Lord.”
31 (AE)Now it came to pass, as he finished speaking all these words, that the ground split apart under them, 32 and the earth opened its mouth and swallowed them up, with their households and (AF)all the men with Korah, with all their goods. 33 So they and all those with them went down alive into the pit; the earth closed over them, and they perished from among the assembly. 34 Then all Israel who were around them fled at their cry, for they said, “Lest the earth swallow us up also!”
35 And (AG)a fire came out from the Lord and consumed the two hundred and fifty men who were offering incense.
