(א) וַיִּקַּח קֹרַח בֶּן יִצְהָר בֶּן קְהָת בֶּן לֵוִי וְדָתָן וַאֲבִירָם בְּנֵי אֱלִיאָב וְאוֹן בֶּן פֶּלֶת בְּנֵי רְאוּבֵן. (ב) וַיָּקֻמוּ לִפְנֵי מֹשֶׁה וַאֲנָשִׁים מִבְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל חֲמִשִּׁים וּמָאתָיִם נְשִׂיאֵי עֵדָה קְרִאֵי מוֹעֵד אַנְשֵׁי שֵׁם. (ג) וַיִּקָּהֲלוּ עַל מֹשֶׁה וְעַל אַהֲרֹן וַיֹּאמְרוּ אֲלֵהֶם רַב לָכֶם כִּי כׇל הָעֵדָה כֻּלָּם קְדֹשִׁים וּבְתוֹכָם י״י וּמַדּוּעַ תִּתְנַשְּׂאוּ עַל קְהַל י״י. (ד) וַיִּשְׁמַע מֹשֶׁה וַיִּפֹּל עַל פָּנָיו. (ה) וַיְדַבֵּר אֶל קֹרַח וְאֶל כׇּל עֲדָתוֹ לֵאמֹר בֹּקֶר וְיֹדַע י״י אֶת אֲשֶׁר לוֹ וְאֶת הַקָּדוֹשׁ וְהִקְרִיב אֵלָיו וְאֵת אֲשֶׁר יִבְחַר בּוֹ יַקְרִיב אֵלָיו. (ו) זֹאת עֲשׂוּ קְחוּ לָכֶם מַחְתּוֹת קֹרַח וְכׇל עֲדָתוֹ. (ז) וּתְנוּ בָהֵן אֵשׁ וְשִׂימוּ עֲלֵיהֶן קְטֹרֶת לִפְנֵי י״י מָחָר וְהָיָה הָאִישׁ אֲשֶׁר יִבְחַר י״י הוּא הַקָּדוֹשׁ רַב לָכֶם בְּנֵי לֵוִי. (ח) וַיֹּאמֶר מֹשֶׁה אֶל קֹרַח שִׁמְעוּ נָא בְּנֵי לֵוִי. (ט) הַמְעַט מִכֶּם כִּי הִבְדִּיל אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל אֶתְכֶם מֵעֲדַת יִשְׂרָאֵל לְהַקְרִיב אֶתְכֶם אֵלָיו לַעֲבֹד אֶת עֲבֹדַת מִשְׁכַּן י״י וְלַעֲמֹד לִפְנֵי הָעֵדָה לְשָׁרְתָם. (י) וַיַּקְרֵב אֹתְךָ וְאֶת כׇּל אַחֶיךָ בְנֵי לֵוִי אִתָּךְ וּבִקַּשְׁתֶּם גַּם כְּהֻנָּה. (יא) לָכֵן אַתָּה וְכׇל עֲדָתְךָ הַנֹּעָדִים עַל י״י וְאַהֲרֹן מַה הוּא כִּי [תַלִּינוּ] (תלונו) עָלָיו. (יב) וַיִּשְׁלַח מֹשֶׁה לִקְרֹא לְדָתָן וְלַאֲבִירָם בְּנֵי אֱלִיאָב וַיֹּאמְרוּ לֹא נַעֲלֶה. (יג) הַמְעַט כִּי הֶעֱלִיתָנוּ מֵאֶרֶץ זָבַת חָלָב וּדְבַשׁ לַהֲמִיתֵנוּ בַּמִּדְבָּר כִּי תִשְׂתָּרֵר עָלֵינוּ גַּם הִשְׂתָּרֵר. (יד) אַף לֹא אֶל אֶרֶץ זָבַת חָלָב וּדְבַשׁ הֲבִיאֹתָנוּ וַתִּתֶּן לָנוּ נַחֲלַת שָׂדֶה וָכָרֶם הַעֵינֵי הָאֲנָשִׁים הָהֵם תְּנַקֵּר לֹא נַעֲלֶה. (טו) וַיִּחַר לְמֹשֶׁה מְאֹד וַיֹּאמֶר אֶל י״י אַל תֵּפֶן אֶל מִנְחָתָם לֹא חֲמוֹר אֶחָד מֵהֶם נָשָׂאתִי וְלֹא הֲרֵעֹתִי אֶת אַחַד מֵהֶם. (טז) וַיֹּאמֶר מֹשֶׁה אֶל קֹרַח אַתָּה וְכׇל עֲדָתְךָ הֱיוּ לִפְנֵי י״י אַתָּה וָהֵם וְאַהֲרֹן מָחָר. (יז) וּקְחוּ אִישׁ מַחְתָּתוֹ וּנְתַתֶּם עֲלֵיהֶם קְטֹרֶת וְהִקְרַבְתֶּם לִפְנֵי י״י אִישׁ מַחְתָּתוֹ חֲמִשִּׁים וּמָאתַיִם מַחְתֹּת וְאַתָּה וְאַהֲרֹן אִישׁ מַחְתָּתוֹ. (יח) וַיִּקְחוּ אִישׁ מַחְתָּתוֹ וַיִּתְּנוּ עֲלֵיהֶם אֵשׁ וַיָּשִׂימוּ עֲלֵיהֶם קְטֹרֶת וַיַּעַמְדוּ פֶּתַח אֹהֶל מוֹעֵד וּמֹשֶׁה וְאַהֲרֹן. (יט) וַיַּקְהֵל עֲלֵיהֶם קֹרַח אֶת כׇּל הָעֵדָה אֶל פֶּתַח אֹהֶל מוֹעֵד וַיֵּרָא כְבוֹד י״י אֶל כׇּל הָעֵדָה. (כ) וַיְדַבֵּר י״י אֶל מֹשֶׁה וְאֶל אַהֲרֹן לֵאמֹר. (כא) הִבָּדְלוּ מִתּוֹךְ הָעֵדָה הַזֹּאת וַאֲכַלֶּה אֹתָם כְּרָגַע. (כב) וַיִּפְּלוּ עַל פְּנֵיהֶם וַיֹּאמְרוּ אֵל אֱלֹהֵי הָרוּחֹת לְכׇל בָּשָׂר הָאִישׁ אֶחָד יֶחֱטָא וְעַל כׇּל הָעֵדָה תִּקְצֹף. (כג) וַיְדַבֵּר י״י אֶל מֹשֶׁה לֵּאמֹר. (כד) דַּבֵּר אֶל הָעֵדָה לֵאמֹר הֵעָלוּ מִסָּבִיב לְמִשְׁכַּן קֹרַח דָּתָן וַאֲבִירָם. (כה) וַיָּקׇם מֹשֶׁה וַיֵּלֶךְ אֶל דָּתָן וַאֲבִירָם וַיֵּלְכוּ אַחֲרָיו זִקְנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל. (כו) וַיְדַבֵּר אֶל הָעֵדָה לֵאמֹר סוּרוּ נָא מֵעַל אׇהֳלֵי הָאֲנָשִׁים הָרְשָׁעִים הָאֵלֶּה וְאַל תִּגְּעוּ בְּכׇל אֲשֶׁר לָהֶם פֶּן תִּסָּפוּ בְּכׇל חַטֹּאתָם. (כז) וַיֵּעָלוּ מֵעַל מִשְׁכַּן קֹרַח דָּתָן וַאֲבִירָם מִסָּבִיב וְדָתָן וַאֲבִירָם יָצְאוּ נִצָּבִים פֶּתַח אׇהֳלֵיהֶם וּנְשֵׁיהֶם וּבְנֵיהֶם וְטַפָּם. (כח) וַיֹּאמֶר מֹשֶׁה בְּזֹאת תֵּדְעוּן כִּי י״י שְׁלָחַנִי לַעֲשׂוֹת אֵת כׇּל הַמַּעֲשִׂים הָאֵלֶּה כִּי לֹא מִלִּבִּי. (כט) אִם כְּמוֹת כׇּל הָאָדָם יְמֻתוּן אֵלֶּה וּפְקֻדַּת כׇּל הָאָדָם יִפָּקֵד עֲלֵיהֶם לֹא י״י שְׁלָחָנִי. (ל) וְאִם בְּרִיאָה יִבְרָא י״י וּפָצְתָה הָאֲדָמָה אֶת פִּיהָ וּבָלְעָה אֹתָם וְאֶת כׇּל אֲשֶׁר לָהֶם וְיָרְדוּ חַיִּים שְׁאֹלָה וִידַעְתֶּם כִּי נִאֲצוּ הָאֲנָשִׁים הָאֵלֶּה אֶת י״י.

(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, (2) and they rose up before Moses, with men of the children of Israel, two hundred fifty princes of the congregation, called to the assembly, men of renown. (3) And they assembled themselves together against Moses and against Aaron, and said to them, "You have gone too far, since all the congregation are holy, everyone of them, and Hashem is among them; why then lift yourselves up above the assembly of Hashem?" (4) When Moses heard it, he fell on his face. (5) He spoke to Korah and to all his company, saying, "In the morning Hashem will show who are his, and who is holy, and will cause him to come near to him, even him whom he shall choose he will cause to come near to him. (6) Do this. Take censers, Korah, and all his company, (7) and put fire in them, and put incense on them before Hashem tomorrow; and it shall be that the man whom Hashem chooses, he shall be holy. You have gone too far, you sons of Levi!" (8) Moses said to Korah, "Hear now, you sons of 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 Hashem, and to stand before the congregation to minister to them? (10) He has brought you near, and all your brothers the sons of Levi with you, and you seek the priesthood also? (11) Therefore you and all your company are gathered together against Hashem; and Aaron, what is he that you murmur against him?" (12) Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab; and they said, "We won't come up. (13) Is it a small thing that you have brought us up out of a land flowing with milk and honey, to kill us in the wilderness, but you must also make yourself a prince over us? (14) Moreover you haven't brought us into a land flowing with milk and honey, and you have not given us inheritance of fields and vineyards. Will you put out the eyes of these men? We won't come up." (15) Moses was very angry, and said to Hashem, "Don't regard their offering. I have not taken one donkey from them. I have not hurt one of them." (16) Moses said to Korah, "You and all your company go before Hashem, you, and they, and Aaron, tomorrow. (17) Each man take his censer, and put incense on them, and each man bring before Hashem his censer, two hundred fifty censers, you also, and Aaron, each his censer." (18) They each took his censer, and put fire in them, and laid incense on them, and stood at the door of the Tent of Meeting with Moses and Aaron. (19) Korah assembled all the congregation against them to the door of the Tent of Meeting: and the glory of Hashem appeared to all the congregation. (20) Hashem spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying, (21) "Separate yourselves from among this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment!" (22) They fell on their faces, and said, "God, the God of the spirits of all flesh, shall one man sin, and will you be angry with all the congregation?" (23) Hashem spoke to Moses, saying, (24) "Speak to the congregation, saying, 'Get away from around the tent of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram!'" (25) Moses rose up and went to Dathan and Abiram; and the elders of Israel followed him. (26) He spoke to the congregation, saying, "Depart, please, from the tents of these wicked men, and touch nothing of theirs, lest you be consumed in all their sins!" (27) So they went away from the tent 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. (28) Moses said, "Hereby you shall know that Hashem has sent me to do all these works; for they are not from my own mind. (29) If these men die the common death of all men, or if they are visited after the visitation of all men; then Hashem hasn't sent me. (30) But if Hashem makes a new thing, and the ground opens its mouth, and swallows them up, with all that appertain to them, and they go down alive into Sheol ; then you shall understand that these men have despised Hashem." (31) It happened, as he finished speaking all these words, that the ground split apart that was under them; (32) and the earth opened its mouth, and swallowed them up, and their households, and all the men who appertained to Korah, and all their goods. (33) So they, and all that appertained to them, went down alive into Sheol; and the earth closed on them, and they perished from among the assembly. (34) All Israel that were around them fled at their cry; for they said, "Lest the earth swallow us up!" (35) Fire came forth from Hashem, and devoured the two hundred fifty men who offered the incense.
