42 And it came to pass when the congregation was gathered against Moses and against Aaron that they looked toward the tabernacle of the testimony; and, behold, the cloud had covered it, and the glory of the Lord appeared.
43 And Moses and Aaron came before the tabernacle of the testimony.
44 And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
45 Depart from among this congregation, and I will consume them in a moment. And they fell upon their faces.
46 And Moses said unto Aaron, Take the censer and put fire in it from off the altar and put incense upon it and go quickly unto the congregation and reconcile them; for the wrath has gone out from before the face of the Lord; the plague is begun.
47 Then Aaron took his censer as Moses said and ran into the midst of the congregation; and, behold, the plague was begun among the people; and he put on incense and reconciled the people.
48 And he stood between the dead and the living; and the plague was stayed.
