Numbers 16:27-33
King James Version
27 So they gat up from the tabernacle of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram, on every side: and Dathan and Abiram came out, and stood in the door of their tents, and their wives, and their sons, and their little children.
28 And Moses said, Hereby ye shall know that the Lord hath sent me to do all these works; for I have not done them of mine own mind.
29 If these men die the common death of all men, or if they be visited after the visitation of all men; then the Lord hath not sent me.
30 But if the Lord make a new thing, and the earth open her mouth, and swallow them up, with all that appertain unto them, and they go down quick into the pit; then ye shall understand that these men have provoked the Lord.
31 And it came to pass, as he had made an end of speaking all these words, that the ground clave asunder that was under them:
32 And the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up, and their houses, and all the men that appertained unto Korah, and all their goods.
33 They, and all that appertained to them, went down alive into the pit, and the earth closed upon them: and they perished from among the congregation.

Numbers 16:27-33
New International Version
27 So they moved away from the tents of Korah, Dathan and Abiram.(A) Dathan and Abiram had come out and were standing with their wives, children(B) and little ones at the entrances to their tents.(C)
28 Then Moses said, “This is how you will know(D) that the Lord has sent me(E) to do all these things and that it was not my idea: 29 If these men die a natural death and suffer the fate of all mankind, then the Lord has not sent me.(F) 30 But if the Lord brings about something totally new, and the earth opens its mouth(G) and swallows them, with everything that belongs to them, and they go down alive into the realm of the dead,(H) then you will know that these men have treated the Lord with contempt.(I)”
31 As soon as he finished saying all this, the ground under them split apart(J) 32 and the earth opened its mouth and swallowed them(K) and their households, and all those associated with Korah, together with their possessions. 33 They went down alive into the realm of the dead,(L) with everything they owned; the earth closed over them, and they perished and were gone from the community.
