Numbers 16
1 Now Korah, the son of Izhar, the son of Kohath, the son of Levi, with Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, and On, the son of Peleth, sons of Reuben, took,
Ecce autem Core filius Isaar, filii Caath, filii Levi, et Dathan atque Abiron filii Eliab, Hon quoque filius Pheleth de filiis Ruben,
2 and they rose up before Moses, with certain of the sons of Israel, two hundred and fifty rulers of the congregation, called to the assembly, men of renown,
surrexerunt contra Moysen, aliique filiorum Israel ducenti quinquaginta viri proceres synagogæ, et qui tempore concilii per nomina vocabantur.
3 and they assembled themselves together against Moses and against Aaron, and said to them, Ye take too much upon you, since all the congregation are holy, every one of them, and Jehovah is among them. Why then do ye lift up yourselves above the assembly of Jehovah?
Cumque stetissent adversum Moysen et Aaron, dixerunt: Sufficiat vobis, quia omnis multitudo sanctorum est, et in ipsis est Dominus: Cur elevamini super populum Domini?
4 And when Moses heard it, he fell upon his face.
Quod cum audisset Moyses, cecidit pronus in faciem:
5 And he spoke to Korah and to all his company, saying, In the morning Jehovah will show who are his, and who is holy, and will cause him to come near to him, even him whom he shall choose will he cause to come near to him.
locutusque ad Core et ad omnem multitudinem: Mane, inquit, notum faciet Dominus qui ad se pertineant, et sanctos applicabit sibi: et quos elegerit, appropinquabunt ei.
6 This do: Take you censers, Korah, and all his company,
Hoc igitur facite: Tollat unusquisque thuribula sua, tu Core, et omne concilium tuum:
7 and put fire in them, and put incense upon them before Jehovah tomorrow. And it shall be that the man whom Jehovah chooses, he is holy. Ye take too much upon you, ye sons of Levi.
et hausto cras igne, ponite desuper thymiama coram Domino: et quemcumque elegerit, ipse erit sanctus: multum erigimini filii Levi.
8 And Moses said to Korah, Hear now, ye sons of Levi.
Dixitque rursum ad Core: Audite filii Levi:
9 Is it a small thing to you, that the God of Israel has separated you from the congregation of Israel, to bring you near to himself, to do the service of the tabernacle of Jehovah, and to stand before the congregation to minister to them,
Num parum vobis est quod separavit vos Deus Israel ab omni populo, et iunxit sibi, ut serviretis ei in cultu tabernaculi, et staretis coram frequentia populi, et ministraretis ei?
10 and that he has brought thee near, and all thy brothers the sons of Levi with thee? And ye seek the priesthood also?
idcirco ad se fecit accedere te et omnes fratres tuos filios Levi, ut vobis etiam sacerdotium vindicetis,
11 Therefore thou and all thy company are gathered together against Jehovah. And Aaron, what is he that ye murmur against him?
et omnis globus tuus stet contra Dominum? quid est enim Aaron ut murmuretis contra eum?
12 And Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab. And they said, We will not come up.
Misit ergo Moyses ut vocaret Dathan et Abiron filios Eliab. Qui responderunt: Non venimus.
13 Is it a small thing that thou have brought us up out of a land flowing with milk and honey, to kill us in the wilderness, but thou must make thyself also a ruler over us?
numquid parum est tibi quod eduxisti nos de terra, quæ lacte et melle manabat, ut occideres in deserto, nisi et dominatus fueris nostri?
14 Moreover thou have not brought us into a land flowing with milk and honey, nor given us inheritance of fields and vineyards. Will thou put out the eyes of these men? We will not come up.
Revera induxisti nos in terram, quæ fluit rivis lactis et mellis, et dedisti nobis possessiones agrorum et vinearum. an et oculos nostros vis eruere? non venimus.
15 And Moses was very angry, and said to Jehovah, Do not respect thou their offering. I have not taken one donkey from them, neither have I hurt one of them.
Iratusque Moyses valde, ait ad Dominum: Ne respicias sacrificia eorum: tu scis quod ne asellum quidem umquam acceperim ab eis, nec afflixerim quempiam eorum.
16 And Moses said to Korah, Be thou and all thy company before Jehovah, thou, and they, and Aaron, tomorrow.
Dixitque ad Core: Tu, et omnis congregatio tua, state seorsum coram Domino, et Aaron die crastino separatim.
17 And take ye every man his censer, and put incense upon them, and bring ye before Jehovah every man his censer, two hundred and fifty censers, thou also, and Aaron, each his censer.
Tollite singuli thuribula vestra, et ponite super ea incensum, offerentes Domino ducenta quinquaginta thuribula: Aaron quoque teneat thuribulum suum.
18 And they took every man his censer, and put fire in them, and laid incense on it, and stood at the door of the tent of meeting with Moses and Aaron.
Quod cum fecissent, stantibus Moyses et Aaron,
19 And Korah assembled all the congregation against them to the door of the tent of meeting. And the glory of Jehovah appeared to all the congregation.
et coacervassent adversum eos omnem multitudinem ad ostium tabernaculi, apparuit cunctis gloria Domini.
20 And Jehovah spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
Locutusque Dominus ad Moysen et Aaron, ait:
21 Separate yourselves from among this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment.
Separamini de medio congregationis huius, ut eos repente disperdam.
22 And they fell upon their faces, and said, O God, the God of the spirits of all flesh, shall one man sin, and will thou be angry with all the congregation?
Qui ceciderunt proni in faciem, atque dixerunt: Fortissime Deus spirituum universæ carnis, num uno peccante, contra omnes ira tua desæviet?
23 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
Et ait Dominus ad Moysen:
24 Speak to the congregation, saying, Get you up from about the tabernacle of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram.
Præcipe universo populo ut separetur a tabernaculis Core, et Dathan et Abiron.
25 And Moses rose up and went to Dathan and Abiram, and the elders of Israel followed him.
Surrexitque Moyses, et abiit ad Dathan et Abiron: et sequentibus eum senioribus Israel,
26 And he spoke to the congregation, saying, Depart, I pray you, from the tents of these wicked men, and touch nothing of theirs, lest ye be consumed in all their sins.
dixit ad turbam: Recedite a tabernaculis hominum impiorum, et nolite tangere quæ ad eos pertinent, ne involvamini in peccatis eorum.
27 So they got up from the tabernacle of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram, on every side. And Dathan and Abiram came out, and stood at the door of their tents, and their wives, and their sons, and their little ones.
Cumque recessissent a tentoriis eorum per circuitum, Dathan et Abiron egressi stabant in introitu papilionum suorum cum uxoribus et liberis, omnique frequentia.
28 And Moses said, Hereby ye shall know that Jehovah has sent me to do all these works, for it is not of my own mind.
Et ait Moyses: In hoc scietis, quod Dominus miserit me ut facerem universa quæ cernitis, et non ex proprio ea corde protulerim:
29 If these men die the common death of all men, or if they be visited after the visitation of all men, then Jehovah has not sent me.
Si consueta hominum morte interierint, et visitaverit eos plaga, qua et ceteri visitari solent, non misit me Dominus:
30 But if Jehovah makes a new thing, and the ground opens its mouth, and swallows them up, with all that pertains to them, and they go down alive into Sheol, then ye shall understand that these men have despised Jehovah. (Sheol h7585)
sin autem novam rem fecerit Dominus, ut aperiens terra os suum deglutiat eos et omnia quæ ad illos pertinent, descenderintque viventes in infernum, scietis quod blasphemaverint Dominum. (Sheol h7585)
31 And it came to pass, as he made an end of speaking all these words, that the ground split asunder that was under them,
Confestim igitur ut cessavit loqui, dirupta est terra sub pedibus eorum:
32 and the earth opened its mouth, and swallowed them up, and their households, and all the men that pertained to Korah, and all their goods.
et aperiens os suum, devoravit illos cum tabernaculis suis et universa substantia eorum.
33 So they, and all that pertained to them, went down alive into Sheol. And the earth closed upon them, and they perished from among the assembly. (Sheol h7585)
descenderuntque vivi in infernum operti humo, et perierunt de medio multitudinis. (Sheol h7585)
34 And all Israel that were round about them fled at the cry of them, for they said, Lest the earth swallow us up.
At vero omnis Israel, qui stabat per gyrum, fugit ad clamorem pereuntium, dicens: Ne forte et nos terra deglutiat.
35 And fire came forth from Jehovah, and devoured the two hundred and fifty men who offered the incense.
Sed et ignis egressus a Domino, interfecit ducentos quinquaginta viros, qui offerebant incensum.
36 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:
37 Speak to Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, that he take up the censers out of the burning, and scatter thou the fire yonder, for they are holy,
Præcipe Eleazaro filio Aaron sacerdoti ut tollat thuribula quæ iacent in incendio, et ignem huc illucque dispergat: quoniam sanctificata sunt
38 even the censers of these sinners against their own lives, and let them be made beaten plates for a covering of the altar, for they offered them before Jehovah, therefore they are holy, and they shall be a sign to the sons of Israel.
in mortibus peccatorum: producatque ea in laminas, et affigat altari, eo quod oblatum sit in eis incensum Domino, et sanctificata sint, ut cernant ea pro signo et monimento filii Israel.
39 And Eleazar the priest took the brazen censers, which those who were burnt had offered, and they beat them out for a covering of the altar,
Tulit ergo Eleazar sacerdos thuribula ænea, in quibus obtulerant hi quos incendium devoravit, et produxit ea in laminas, affigens altari:
40 to be a memorial to the sons of Israel, to the end that no stranger, who is not of the seed of Aaron, come near to burn incense before Jehovah, that he not be as Korah, and as his company, as Jehovah spoke to him by Moses.
ut haberent postea filii Israel, quibus commonerentur ne quis accedat alienigena, et qui non est de semine Aaron ad offerendum incensum Domino, ne patiatur sicut passus est Core, et omnis congregatio eius, loquente Domino ad Moysen.
41 But on the morrow all the congregation of the sons of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron, saying, Ye have killed the people of Jehovah.
Murmuravit autem omnis multitudo filiorum Israel sequenti die contra Moysen et Aaron, dicens: Vos interfecistis populum Domini.
42 And it came to pass, when the congregation was assembled against Moses and against Aaron, that they looked toward the tent of meeting, and, behold, the cloud covered it, and the glory of Jehovah appeared.
Cumque oriretur seditio, et tumultus incresceret,
43 And Moses and Aaron came to the front of the tent of meeting.
Moyses et Aaron fugerunt ad tabernaculum fœderis. Quod, postquam ingressi sunt, operuit nubes, et apparuit gloria Domini.
44 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
Dixitque Dominus ad Moysen:
45 Get you up from among this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment. And they fell upon their faces.
Recedite de medio huius multitudinis, etiam nunc delebo eos. Cumque iacerent in terra,
46 And Moses said to Aaron, Take thy censer, and put fire in it from off the altar, and lay incense on it, and carry it quickly to the congregation, and make atonement for them, for there is wrath gone out from Jehovah. The plague has begun.
dixit Moyses ad Aaron: Tolle thuribulum, et hausto igne de altari, mitte incensum desuper, pergens cito ad populum ut roges pro eis: iam enim egressa est ira a Domino, et plaga desævit.
47 And Aaron took as Moses spoke, and ran into the midst of the assembly. And, behold, the plague had begun among the people. And he put on the incense, and made atonement for the people.
Quod cum fecisset Aaron, et cucurrisset ad mediam multitudinem, quam iam vastabat incendium, obtulit thymiama:
48 And he stood between the dead and the living, and the plague was stopped.
et stans inter mortuos ac viventes, pro populo deprecatus est, et plaga cessavit.
49 Now those who died by the plague were fourteen thousand and seven hundred, besides those who died about the matter of Korah.
Fuerunt autem qui percussi sunt, quattuordecim millia hominum, et septingenti, absque his qui perierant in seditione Core.
50 And Aaron returned to Moses to the door of the tent of meeting, and the plague was stopped.
Reversusque est Aaron ad Moysen ad ostium tabernaculi fœderis postquam quievit interitus.
