1And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
1And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
2Speak to the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them, When ye are come into the land of your habitation, which I give to you,
2Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye be come into the land of your habitations, which I give unto you,
3and thou wilt offer whole-burnt-offerings to the Lord, a whole-burnt -offeringor a meat-offering to perform a vow, or a free-will offering, or to offer in your feastsa sacrifice of sweet savour to the Lord, whether of the herdor the flock:
3And will make an offering by fire unto the Lord, a burnt offering, or a sacrifice in performing a vow, or in a freewill offering, or in your solemn feasts, to make a sweet savour unto the Lord, of the herd, or of the flock:
4then he that offers his gift to the Lord shall bring a meat -offering of fine flour, a tenth part of an ephah mingled with oil, even with the fourth part of a hin .
4Then shall he that offereth his offering unto the Lord bring a meat offering of a tenth deal of flour mingled with the fourth part of an hin of oil.
5And for a drink-offering ye shall offer the fourth part of a hin on the whole-burnt -offering, or on the meat-offering: for every lamb thou shalt offer so much, as a sacrifice, a smell of sweet savour to the Lord.
5And the fourth part of an hin of wine for a drink offering shalt thou prepare with the burnt offering or sacrifice, for one lamb.
6And for a ram, when ye offer it as a whole-burnt-offering or as a sacrifice, thou shalt prepare as a meat -offering two tenths of fine flour mingled with oil, the third part of a hin .
6Or for a ram, thou shalt prepare for a meat offering two tenth deals of flour mingled with the third part of an hin of oil.
7And ye shall offer for a smell of sweet savour to the Lord wine for a drink -offering, the third part of a hin .
7And for a drink offering thou shalt offer the third part of an hin of wine, for a sweet savour unto the Lord.
8And if ye sacrifice [a bullock] from the herd for a whole-burnt -offeringor for a sacrifice, to perform a vowor a peace-offering to the Lord,
8And when thou preparest a bullock for a burnt offering, or for a sacrifice in performing a vow, or peace offerings unto the Lord:
9then [the worshipper] shall offer upon the calf a meat -offering, three tenth deals of fine flour mingled with oil, [even] the half of a hin .
9Then shall he bring with a bullock a meat offering of three tenth deals of flour mingled with half an hin of oil.
10And wine for a drink -offering the half of a hin , a sacrifice for a smell of sweet savour to the Lord.
10And thou shalt bring for a drink offering half an hin of wine, for an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the Lord.
11Thus shalt thou do to one calf or to one ram, or to one lamb of the sheep or kid of the goats.
11Thus shall it be done for one bullock, or for one ram, or for a lamb, or a kid.
12According to the number of what ye shall offer, so shall ye do to each one, according to their number.
12According to the number that ye shall prepare, so shall ye do to every one according to their number.
13Every native of the country shall do thus to offer such things as sacrifices for a smell of sweet savour to the Lord.
13All that are born of the country shall do these things after this manner, in offering an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the Lord.
14And if there should be a stranger among you in your land, or one who should be born to you among your generations, and he will offer a sacrifice, a smell of sweet savour to the Lordas ye do, so the [whole] congregation shall offer to the Lord.
14And if a stranger sojourn with you, or whosoever be among you in your generations, and will offer an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the Lord; as ye do, so he shall do.
15There shall be one law for you and for the strangers abiding among you, a perpetual law for your generations: as ye [are], so shall the stranger be before the Lord.
15One ordinance shall be both for you of the congregation, and also for the stranger that sojourneth with you, an ordinance for ever in your generations: as ye are, so shall the stranger be before the Lord.
16There shall be one law and one ordinance for you, and for the stranger that abides among you.
16One law and one manner shall be for you, and for the stranger that sojourneth with you.
17And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
17And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
18Speak to the sons of Israel, and thou shalt say to them, When ye are entering into the land, into which I bring you,
18Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye come into the land whither I bring you,
19then it shall come to pass, when ye shall eat of the bread of the land, ye shall separate a wave-offering, a special offering to the Lord, the first-fruits of your dough.
19Then it shall be, that, when ye eat of the bread of the land, ye shall offer up an heave offering unto the Lord.
20Ye shall offer your bread a heave -offering: as a heave -offering from the threshing-floor, so shall ye separate it,
20Ye shall offer up a cake of the first of your dough for an heave offering: as ye do the heave offering of the threshingfloor, so shall ye heave it.
21even the first-fruits of your dough, and ye shall give the Lord a heave -offering throughout your generations.
21Of the first of your dough ye shall give unto the Lord an heave offering in your generations.
22But whensoever ye shall transgress, and not perform all these commands, which the Lord spoke to Moses;
22And if ye have erred, and not observed all these commandments, which the Lord hath spoken unto Moses,
23as the Lord appointed you by the hand of Moses, from the day which the Lord appointed you and forward throughout your generations,
23Even all that the Lord hath commanded you by the hand of Moses, from the day that the Lord commanded Moses, and henceforward among your generations;
24then it shall come to pass, if a trespass be committed unwillingly, unknown to the congregation, then shall all the congregation offer a calf of the herd without blemish for a whole-burnt -offering of sweet savour to the Lord, and its meat -offeringand its drink -offeringaccording to the ordinance, and one kid of the goats for a sin -offering.
24Then it shall be, if ought be committed by ignorance without the knowledge of the congregation, that all the congregation shall offer one young bullock for a burnt offering, for a sweet savour unto the Lord, with his meat offering, and his drink offering, according to the manner, and one kid of the goats for a sin offering.
25And the priest shall make atonement for all the congregation of the children of Israel, and [the trespass] shall be forgiven them, because it is involuntary; and they have brought their gift, a burnt-offering to the Lord for their trespass before the Lord, even for their involuntary sins.
25And the priest shall make an atonement for all the congregation of the children of Israel, and it shall be forgiven them; for it is ignorance: and they shall bring their offering, a sacrifice made by fire unto the Lord, and their sin offering before the Lord, for their ignorance:
26And it shall be forgiven as respects all the congregation of the children of Israel, and the stranger that is abiding among you, because [it is] involuntary to all the people .
26And it shall be forgiven all the congregation of the children of Israel, and the stranger that sojourneth among them; seeing all the people were in ignorance.
27And if one soul sin unwillingly, he shall bring one she -goat of a year old for a sin -offering.
27And if any soul sin through ignorance, then he shall bring a she goat of the first year for a sin offering.
28And the priest shall make atonement for the soul that committed the trespass unwillingly, and that sinned unwillingly before the Lord, to make atonement for him.
28And the priest shall make an atonement for the soul that sinneth ignorantly, when he sinneth by ignorance before the Lord, to make an atonement for him; and it shall be forgiven him.
29There shall be one law for the native among the children of Israel, and for the stranger that abides among them, whosoever shall commit a trespass unwillingly.
29Ye shall have one law for him that sinneth through ignorance, both for him that is born among the children of Israel, and for the stranger that sojourneth among them.
30And whatever soul either of the natives or of the strangers shall do any thing with a presumptuous hand, he will provoke God; that soul shall be cut off from his people,
30But the soul that doeth ought presumptuously, whether he be born in the land, or a stranger, the same reproacheth the Lord; and that soul shall be cut off from among his people.
31for he has set at nought the word of the Lordand broken his commands: that soul shall be utterly destroyed, his sin [is] upon him.
31Because he hath despised the word of the Lord, and hath broken his commandment, that soul shall utterly be cut off; his iniquity shall be upon him.
32And the children of Israel were in the wilderness, and they found a man gathering sticks on the sabbath -day.
32And while the children of Israel were in the wilderness, they found a man that gathered sticks upon the sabbath day.
33And they who found him gathering sticks on the sabbath-day brought him to Moses and Aaron, and to all the congregation of the children of Israel.
33And they that found him gathering sticks brought him unto Moses and Aaron, and unto all the congregation.
34And they placed him in custody, for they did not determine what they should do to him.
34And they put him in ward, because it was not declared what should be done to him.
35And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, Let the man be by all means put to death: [do ye] all the congregation, stone him with stones .
35And the Lord said unto Moses, The man shall be surely put to death: all the congregation shall stone him with stones without the camp.
36And all the congregation brought him forth out of the camp; and all the congregation stoned him with stones outside the camp, as the Lord commanded Moses.
36And all the congregation brought him without the camp, and stoned him with stones, and he died; as the Lord commanded Moses.

37And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
38Speak to the children of Israel, and thou shalt tell them; and let them make for themselves fringes upon the borders of their garments throughout their generations: and ye shall put upon the fringes of the borders a lace of blue.
38Speak 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:
39And it shall be on your fringes, and ye shall look on them, and ye shall remember all the commands of the Lord, and do them: and ye shall not turn back after your imaginations, and after [the sight of your] eyes in the things after which ye go a whoring;
39And 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:
40that ye may rememberand perform all my commands, and ye shall be holy unto your God.
40That ye may remember, and do all my commandments, and be holy unto your God.
41I [am] the Lord your God that brought you out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: I [am] the Lord your God.
41I am the Lord your God, which brought you out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: I am the Lord your God.
1And Core the son of Isaar the son of Caath the son of Levi, and Dathan and Abiron, sons of Eliab, and Aun the son of Phaleth the son of Ruben, spoke;
1Now 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:
2and rose up before Moses, and two hundred and fifty men of the sons of Israel, chiefs of the assembly, chosen councillors, and men of renown.
2And 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:
3They rose up against Moses and Aaron, and said , Let it be enough for you that all the congregation [are] holy, and the Lord [is] among them; and why do ye set up yourselves against the congregation of the Lord?
3And 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?
4And when Moses heard it, he fell on his face.
4And when Moses heard it, he fell upon his face:
5And he spoke to Core and all his assembly, saying, God has visited and known those that are hisand who are holy, and has brought them to himself; and whom he has chosen for himself, he has brought to himself.
5And 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.
6This do ye: take to yourselves censers, Core and all his company;
6This do; Take you censers, Korah, and all his company;
7and put fire on them, and put incense on them before the Lord to -morrow; and it shall come to pass that the man whom the Lord has chosen, he shall be holy: let it be enough for you, ye sons of Levi.
7And 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.
8And Moses said to Core, Hearken to me, ye sons of Levi.
8And Moses said unto Korah, Hear, I pray you, ye sons of Levi:
9Is it a little thing for you, that the God of Israel has separated you from the congregation of Israel, and brought you near to himself to minister in the services of the tabernacle of the Lord, and to stand before the tabernacle to minister for them?
9Seemeth 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?
10and he has brought thee near and all thy brethren the sons of Levi with thee, and do ye seek to be priests also?
10And he hath brought thee near to him, and all thy brethren the sons of Levi with thee: and seek ye the priesthood also?
11Thus [it is with] thee and all thy congregation which is gathered together against God: and who is Aaron, that ye murmur against him?
11For which cause both thou and all thy company are gathered together against the Lord: and what is Aaron, that ye murmur against him?
12And Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiron sons of Eliab; and they said, We will not go up.
12And Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab: which said, We will not come up:
13Is it a little thing that thou hast brought us up to a land flowing with milk and honey, to kill us in the wilderness, [and] that thou altogether rulest over us?
13Is 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?
14Thou art a prince, and hast thou brought us into a land flowing with milk and honey, and hast thou given us an inheritance of land and vineyards? wouldest thou have put out the eyes of those men? we will not go up.
14Moreover 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.
15And Moses was exceedingly indignant, and said to the Lord, Do thou take no heed to their sacrifice: I have not taken away the desire of any one of them, neither have I hurt any one of them.
15And 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.
16And Moses said to Core, Sanctify thy company, and be ready before the Lord, thouand Aaron and they, to -morrow.
16And Moses said unto Korah, Be thou and all thy company before the Lord, thou, and they, and Aaron, to morrow:
17And take each man his censer, and ye shall put incense upon them, and shall bring each one his censer before the Lord , two hundred and fifty censers, and thou and Aaron shall bring each his censer.
17And 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.
18And each man took his censer, and they put on them fire , and laid incense on them; and Moses and Aaron stood by the doors of the tabernacle of witness.
18And 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.
19And Core raised up against them all his company by the door of the tabernacle of witness; and the glory of the Lord appeared to all the congregation.
19And 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.
20And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying,
20And the Lord spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,
21Separate yourselves from the midst of this congregation, and I will consume them at once.
21Separate yourselves from among this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment.
22And they fell on their faces, and said, O God, the God of spirits and of all flesh, if one man has sinned, [shall] the wrath of the Lord [be] upon the whole congregation?
22And 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?
23And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
23And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
24Speak to the congregation, saying, Depart from the company of Core round about.
24Speak unto the congregation, saying, Get you up from about the tabernacle of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram.
25And Moses rose up and went to Dathan and Abiron, and all the elders of Israel went with him.
25And Moses rose up and went unto Dathan and Abiram; and the elders of Israel followed him.
26And he spoke to the congregation, saying, Separate yourselves from the tents of these stubborn men, and touch nothing that belongs to them, lest ye be consumed with them in all their sin.
26And he spake unto 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.
27And they stood aloof from the tent of Core round about; and Dathan and Abiron went forth and stood by the doors of their tents, and their wivesand their children and their store.
27So 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.
28And Moses said, Hereby shall ye know that the Lord has sent me to perform all these works, that [I have] not [done them] of myself.
28And 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.
29If these men shall die according to the death of all men, if also their visitation shall be according to the visitation of all men, then the Lord has not sent me.
29If 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.
30But if the Lord shall shew by a wonder, and the earth shall open her mouthand swallow them up, and their houses, and their tents, and all that belongs to them, and they shall go down alive into Hades, then ye shall know that these men have provoked the Lord.
30But 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.
31And when he ceased speaking all these words, the ground clave asunder beneath them.
31And it came to pass, as he had made an end of speaking all these words, that the ground clave asunder that was under them:
32And the ground opened , and swallowed them up, and their houses, and all the men that were with Core, and their cattle.
32And the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up, and their houses, and all the men that appertained unto Korah, and all their goods.
33And they went down and all that they had, alive into Hades; and the ground covered them, and they perished from the midst of the congregation.
33They, 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.
34And all Israel round about them fled from the sound of them, for they said, Lest the earth swallow us up [also].
34And all Israel that were round about them fled at the cry of them: for they said, Lest the earth swallow us up also.
35And fire went forth from the Lord, and devoured the two hundred and fifty men that offered incense.
35And there came out a fire from the Lord, and consumed the two hundred and fifty men that offered incense.
