04:015:038 Speak unto the children of Israel, and bid them that they make them fringes in the borders of their garments throughout their generations, and that they put upon the fringe of the borders a ribband of blue:
04:015:039 And it shall be unto you for a fringe, that ye may look upon it, and remember all the commandments of the LORD, and do them; and that ye seek not after your own heart and your own eyes, after which ye use to go a whoring:
04:015:040 That ye may remember, and do all my commandments, and be holy unto your God.
04:015:041 I am the LORD your God, which brought you out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: I am the LORD your God.
04:016:001 Now Korah, the son of Izhar, the son of Kohath, the son of Levi, and Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, and On, the son of Peleth, sons of Reuben, took men:
04:016:002 And they rose up before Moses, with certain of the children of Israel, two hundred and fifty princes of the assembly, famous in the congregation, men of renown:
04:016:003 And they gathered themselves together against Moses and against Aaron, and said unto them, Ye take too much upon you, seeing all the congregation are holy, every one of them, and the LORD is among them: wherefore then lift ye up yourselves above the congregation of the LORD?
04:016:004 And when Moses heard it, he fell upon his face:
04:016:005 And he spake unto Korah and unto all his company, saying, Even to morrow the LORD will shew who are his, and who is holy; and will cause him to come near unto him: even him whom he hath chosen will he cause to come near unto him.
04:016:006 This do; Take you censers, Korah, and all his company;
04:016:007 And put fire therein, and put incense in them before the LORD to morrow: and it shall be that the man whom the LORD doth choose, he shall be holy: ye take too much upon you, ye sons of Levi.
04:016:008 And Moses said unto Korah, Hear, I pray you, ye sons of Levi:
04:016:009 Seemeth it but a small thing unto you, that the God of Israel hath separated you from the congregation of Israel, to bring you near to himself to do the service of the tabernacle of the LORD, and to stand before the congregation to minister unto them?
04:016:010 And he hath brought thee near to him, and all thy brethren the sons of Levi with thee: and seek ye the priesthood also?
04:016:011 For which cause both thou and all thy company are gathered together against the LORD: and what is Aaron, that ye murmur against him?
04:016:012 And Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab: which said, We will not come up:
04:016:013 Is it a small thing that thou hast brought us up out of a land that floweth with milk and honey, to kill us in the wilderness, except thou make thyself altogether a prince over us?
04:016:014 Moreover thou hast not brought us into a land that floweth with milk and honey, or given us inheritance of fields and vineyards: wilt thou put out the eyes of these men? we will not come up.
04:016:015 And Moses was very wroth, and said unto the LORD, Respect not thou their offering: I have not taken one ass from them, neither have I hurt one of them.
04:016:016 And Moses said unto Korah, Be thou and all thy company before the LORD, thou, and they, and Aaron, to morrow:
04:016:017 And take every man his censer, and put incense in them, and bring ye before the LORD every man his censer, two hundred and fifty censers; thou also, and Aaron, each of you his censer.
04:016:018 And they took every man his censer, and put fire in them, and laid incense thereon, and stood in the door of the tabernacle of the congregation with Moses and Aaron.
04:016:019 And Korah gathered all the congregation against them unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation: and the glory of the LORD appeared unto all the congregation.
04:016:020 And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,
04:016:021 Separate yourselves from among this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment.
04:016:022 And they fell upon their faces, and said, O God, the God of the spirits of all flesh, shall one man sin, and wilt thou be wroth with all the congregation?
04:016:023 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
04:016:024 Speak unto the congregation, saying, Get you up from about the tabernacle of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram.
