Chapter 16

1Now Korach, son of Izhar son of Kehat son of Levi, betook himself, along with Datan and Aviram sons of Eliav, and On son of Peleth—descendants of Reuven—

2to rise up against Moshe, together with two hundred and fifty Israelites, chieftains of the community, chosen in the assembly, men of repute.

3They combined against Moshe and Aharon and said to them, “You have gone too far! For all the community are holy, all of them, and Hashem is in their midst. Why then do you raise yourselves above Hashem's congregation?”

4When Moshe heard this, he fell on his face.

vai-YISH-ma MO-sheh va-yi-POL al-PA-naiv

דוַיִּשְׁמַ֣ע מֹשֶׁ֔ה וַיִּפֹּ֖ל עַל־פָּנָֽיו׃

5Then he spoke to Korach and all his company, saying, “Come morning, Hashem will make known who is His and who is holy, and will grant him access to Himself; He will grant access to the one He has chosen.

7and tomorrow put fire in them and lay incense on them before Hashem. Then the man whom Hashem chooses, he shall be the holy one. You have gone too far, sons of Levi!”

8Moshe said further to Korach, “Hear me, sons of Levi.

9Is it not enough for you that the God of Yisrael has set you apart from the community of Yisrael and given you access to Him, to perform the duties of Hashem's Mishkan and to minister to the community and serve them?

11Truly, it is against Hashem that you and all your company have banded together. For who is Aharon that you should rail against him?”

12Moshe sent for Datan and Aviram, sons of Eliav; but they said, “We will not come!

14Even if you had brought us to a land flowing with milk and honey, and given us possession of fields and vineyards, should you gouge out those men's eyes? We will not come!”

15Moshe was much aggrieved and he said to Hashem, “Pay no regard to their oblation. I have not taken the ass of any one of them, nor have I wronged any one of them.”

16And Moshe said to Korach, “Tomorrow, you and all your company appear before Hashem, you and they and Aharon.

17Each of you take his fire pan and lay incense on it, and each of you bring his fire pan before Hashem, two hundred and fifty fire pans; you and Aharon also [bring] your fire pans.”

18Each of them took his fire pan, put fire in it, laid incense on it, and took his place at the entrance of the Tent of Meeting, as did Moshe and Aharon.

19Korach gathered the whole community against them at the entrance of the Tent of Meeting. Then the Presence of Hashem appeared to the whole community,

20and Hashem spoke to Moshe and Aharon, saying,

22But they fell on their faces and said, “O Hashem, Source of the breath of all flesh! When one man sins, will You be wrathful with the whole community?”

23Hashem spoke to Moshe, saying,

25Moshe rose and went to Datan and Aviram, the elders of Yisrael following him.

26He addressed the community, saying, “Move away from the tents of these wicked men and touch nothing that belongs to them, lest you be wiped out for all their sins.”

27So they withdrew from about the abodes of Korach, Datan, and Aviram. Now Datan and Aviram had come out and they stood at the entrance of their tents, with their wives, their children, and their little ones.

28And Moshe said, “By this you shall know that it was Hashem who sent me to do all these things; that they are not of my own devising:

29if these men die as all men do, if their lot be the common fate of all mankind, it was not Hashem who sent me.

30But if Hashem brings about something unheard-of, so that the ground opens its mouth and swallows them up with all that belongs to them, and they go down alive into Sheol, you shall know that these men have spurned Hashem.”
