Expanded Bible

⁸ Moses also said to Korah, “Listen, you ·Levites [^Lsons of Levi]. ⁹ The God of Israel has ·separated [divided] you from the rest of the ·Israelites [^Lcommunity/congregation/assembly of Israel]. He brought you near to himself to do the work in the Lord’s ·Holy Tent [Tabernacle] and to stand before all the ·Israelites [community; congregation; assembly] and ·serve [minister to] them [8:14; Ex. 32:29; Lev. 8–9; Deut. 33:8–11]. ·Isn’t that enough [^LIs it too little for you]? ¹⁰ He has brought you and all your ·fellow [brother] ·Levites [^Lsons of Levi] near to himself, yet now you ·want to be priests [^Lseek the priesthood].
