Bamidbar 16:41-49

Orthodox Jewish Bible

^41 (17:6) But the next day Kol Adat Bnei Yisroel murmured against Moshe and against Aharon, saying, Ye have killed the Am Hashem.

^42 (17:7) And it came to pass, when HaEdah was gathered against Moshe and against Aharon, that they looked toward the Ohel Mo’ed; and, hinei, the Anan covered it, and the Kavod Hashem appeared.

^43 (17:8) And Moshe and Aharon came before the Ohel Mo’ed.

^44 (17:9) And Hashem spoke unto Moshe saying,

^45 (17:10) Get you away from among this edah, that I may consume them as in a moment. And they fell upon their faces.

^46 (17:11) And Moshe said unto Aharon, Take a fire pan, and put eish therein from off the Mizbe’ach, and put ketoret, and go quickly unto HaEdah, and make kapporah for them; for there is Ketzef (Wrath) gone out from Hashem; the plague is begun.

^47 (17:12) And Aharon took as Moshe commanded, and ran into the midst of the Kahal; and, hinei, the plague was begun among HaAm: and he offered ketoret, and made kapporah for HaAm.

^48 (17:13) And he stood between the mesim and the chayyim; and the plague was stopped.

^49 (17:14) Now they that were the mesim in the maggefah (plague) were fourteen thousand and seven hundred, in addition to those who were mesim by reason of Korach.
