Numbers 16:2-4

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

² two hundred and fifty Israelite men, leaders of the congregation, chosen from the assembly, well-known men,^[a] and they confronted Moses. ³ They assembled against Moses and against Aaron, and said to them, ‘You have gone too far! All the congregation are holy, every one of them, and the Lord is among them. So why then do you exalt yourselves above the assembly of the Lord?’ ⁴ When Moses heard it, he fell on his face.
