Numbers 16:37-40

« Num 15Num 16Num 17 »

37 “Say to Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, that he shall take up the censers out of the midst of the ¹blaze, and you scatter ²the burning coals abroad; for they are holy. 38 As for the censers of these ¹men who have sinned at the cost of their lives, make them into hammered sheets for a plating of the altar, since they brought them near before Yahweh, and they are holy; and ^athey shall be for a sign to the sons of Israel.” 39 So Eleazar the priest took the bronze censers which the men who were burned had brought near, and they hammered them out as a plating for the altar, 40 as a ¹memorial to the sons of Israel that ^ano ²outsider who is not of the seed of Aaron should come near ^bto burn incense before Yahweh; so that he will not become like Korah and his congregation—just as Yahweh had spoken to him by the hand of Moses.
