42 And it came to be, when the congregation assembled against Mosheh and against Aharon, that they turned toward the Tent of Meeting. And see, the cloud covered it, and the esteem of יהוה appeared.
43 And Mosheh and Aharon came before the Tent of Meeting.
44 And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying,
45 “Arise from amidst this congregation, and let Me consume them in a moment.” And they fell on their faces.
46 So Mosheh said to Aharon, “Take the fire holder and put fire in it from the altar, and lay incense on, and go, hurry to the congregation and make atonement for them, for wrath has gone out from יהוה, the plague has begun.”
47 And Aharon took it as Mosheh commanded, and ran into the midst of the assembly, and saw that the plague had begun among the people. And he laid on the incense and made atonement for the people,
48 and stood between the dead and the living. And the plague was stopped.
