28And Moses said, Hereby ye shall know that Jehovah hath sent me to do all these works; for [I have] not [done them] of mine own mind.

29If these men die the common death of all men, or if they be visited after the visitation of all men; then Jehovah hath not sent me.

30But if Jehovah make a new thing, and the ground open its mouth, and swallow them up, with all that appertain unto them, and they go down alive into Sheol; then ye shall understand that these men have despised Jehovah.

31And it came to pass, as he made an end of speaking all these words, that the ground clave asunder that was under them;

32and the earth opened its mouth, and swallowed them up, and their households, and all the men that appertained unto Korah, and all their goods.

33So they, and all that appertained to them, went down alive into Sheol: and the earth closed upon them, and they perished from among the assembly.

34And all Israel that were round about them fled at the cry of them; for they said, Lest the earth swallow us up.
