## Numbers 16:2-3 in Context (Verses 1–6 KJV)
 
 [1 ](/kjv/numbers/16/1) Now 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:*
 
 [2 ](/kjv/numbers/16/2) And 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:
 
 [3 ](/kjv/numbers/16/3) And 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?*
 
 [4 ](/kjv/numbers/16/4) And when Moses heard *it*, he fell upon his face:
 
 [5 ](/kjv/numbers/16/5) And 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.
 
 [6 ](/kjv/numbers/16/6) This do; Take you censers, Korah, and all his company;
 
[Numbers 15](/kjv/numbers/15) [Numbers 17](/kjv/numbers/17)
