9Does it seem only a small thing to you that the God of Israel has made you separate from the rest of Israel, letting you come near himself to do the work of the House of the Lord, and to take your place before the people to do what has to be done for them;
10Letting you, and all your brothers the sons of Levi, come near to him? and would you now be priests?
11So you and all your band have come together against the Lord; and Aaron, who is he, that you are crying out against him?
12Then Moses sent for Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab: and they said, We will not come up:
13Is it not enough that you have taken us from a land flowing with milk and honey, to put us to death in the waste land, but now you are desiring to make yourself a chief over us?
14And more than this, you have not taken us into a land flowing with milk and honey, or given us a heritage of fields and vine-gardens: will you put out the eyes of these men? We will not come up.
15Then Moses was very angry, and said to the Lord, Give no attention to their offering: not one of their asses have I taken, or done wrong to any of them.
