BCC ¹ Coré, fils d'Isaar, fils de Caath, fils de Lévi, se fit des partisans, avec Dathan et Abiron, fils d'Éliab, et Hon, fils de Phéleth,

KJV 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:

BCC ² ceux-ci, fils de Ruben, et ils se soulevèrent en présence de Moïse, ayant avec eux deux cent cinquante hommes des enfants d'Israël, princes de l'assemblée, appelés aux conseils et gens de renom.

KJV 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:

BCC ³ Ils s'attroupèrent contre Moïse et Aaron, et leur dirent : "c'en est assez ! Car toute l'assemblée, tous sont saints, et Yahweh est au milieu d'eux. Pourquoi vous élevez-vous au-dessus de l'assemblée de Yahweh ?"

KJV 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?

BCC ⁴ Quand Moïse entendit cela, il tomba sur son visage.

KJV ⁴ And when Moses heard it, he fell upon his face:

BCC ⁵ Il parla à Coré et à toute sa troupe en disant : "demain, Yahweh fera connaître celui qui est à lui et qui est saint, et il le fera approcher de lui ; celui qu'il aura choisi, il le fera approcher de lui.

KJV 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.

BCC ⁶ Faites ceci : Prenez des encensoirs, Coré et toute sa troupe.

KJV ⁶ This do; Take you censers, Korah, and all his company;

BCC ⁷ Demain, mettez-y du feu, et jetez dessus du parfum devant Yahweh ; celui que Yahweh choisira, c'est lui qui est saint. C'en est assez, enfants de Lévi."

KJV ⁷ And put fire therein, and put incense in them before the LORD to morrow: and it shall be that the man whom the LORD doth choose, he shall be holy: ye take too much upon you, ye sons of Levi.

BCC ⁸ Moïse dit à Coré : "écoutez donc, enfants de Lévi.

KJV ⁸ And Moses said unto Korah, Hear, I pray you, ye sons of Levi:

BCC ⁹ Est-ce trop peu pour vous que le Dieu d'Israël vous ait séparés de l'assemblée d'Israël en vous faisant approcher de lui, pour faire le service de la Demeure de Yahweh, et pour vous tenir devant l'assemblée pour faire son service ?

KJV ⁹ Seemeth it but a small thing unto you, that the God of Israel hath separated you from the congregation of Israel, to bring you near to himself to do the service of the tabernacle of the LORD, and to stand before the congregation to minister unto them?

BCC ¹⁰ Il t'a fait approcher de lui, toi et tous tes frères, les enfants de Lévi, avec toi, et vous ambitionnez encore le sacerdoce !

KJV ¹⁰ And he hath brought thee near to him, and all thy brethren the sons of Levi with thee: and seek ye the priesthood also?

BCC ¹¹ C'est pour cela que toi et toute ta troupe, vous vous assemblez contre Yahweh ! Et Aaron, qui est-il, pour que vous murmuriez contre lui ?"

KJV ¹¹ For which cause both thou and all thy company are gathered together against the LORD: and what is Aaron, that ye murmur against him?

BCC ¹² Moïse fit appeler Dathan et Abiron, fils d'Éliab ; et ils dirent : "nous ne monterons pas.

KJV ¹² And Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab: which said, We will not come up:

BCC ¹³ N'est-ce pas assez de nous avoir fait sortir d'un pays où coulent le lait et le miel pour nous faire mourir au désert, que tu t'ériges en maître sur nous ?

KJV ¹³ Is it a small thing that thou hast brought us up out of a land that floweth with milk and honey, to kill us in the wilderness, except thou make thyself altogether a prince over us?

BCC ¹⁴ Ah ! Ce n'est pas dans un pays où coulent le lait et le miel que tu nous a conduits ; ce ne sont pas des champs et des vignes que tu nous a donnés en possession ! Penses-tu crever les yeux de ces gens ? Nous ne monterons pas !"

KJV ¹⁴ Moreover thou hast not brought us into a land that floweth with milk and honey, or given us inheritance of fields and vineyards: wilt thou put out the eyes of these men? we will not come up.

BCC ¹⁵ Moïse, très irrité, dit à Yahweh : "n'ayez point égard à leur oblation. Je ne leur ai pas même pris un âne, et je n'ai fait de mal à aucun d'eux."

KJV ¹⁵ And Moses was very wroth, and said unto the LORD, Respect not thou their offering: I have not taken one ass from them, neither have I hurt one of them.

BCC ¹⁶ Moïse dit à Coré : "toi et toute ta troupe, trouvez-vous demain devant Yahweh,

KJV ¹⁶ And Moses said unto Korah, Be thou and all thy company before the LORD, thou, and they, and Aaron, to morrow:

BCC ¹⁷ toi et eux, avec Aaron. Prenez chacun votre encensoir, mettez-y du parfum et présentez chacun votre encensoir devant Yahweh : deux cent cinquante encensoirs ; toi aussi et Aaron, vous prendrez chacun votre encensoir."

KJV ¹⁷ And take every man his censer, and put incense in them, and bring ye before the LORD every man his censer, two hundred and fifty censers; thou also, and Aaron, each of you his censer.

BCC ¹⁸ Ils prirent chacun leur encensoir, y mirent du feu et y jetèrent du parfum, et ils se tinrent à l'entrée de la tente de réunion, avec Moïse et Aaron.

KJV ¹⁸ And they took every man his censer, and put fire in them, and laid incense thereon, and stood in the door of the tabernacle of the congregation with Moses and Aaron.

BCC ¹⁹ Coré avait convoqué toute l'assemblée contre Moïse et Aaron, à l'entrée de la tente de réunion. Alors la gloire de Yahweh apparut à toute l'assemblée.

KJV ¹⁹ And Korah gathered all the congregation against them unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation: and the glory of the LORD appeared unto all the congregation.

BCC ²⁰ Et Yahweh parla à Moïse et à Aaron, en disant :

KJV ²⁰ And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,

BCC ²¹ "Séparez-vous du milieu de cette assemblée, et je les consumerai en un instant."

KJV ²¹ Separate yourselves from among this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment.

BCC ²² Et ils tombèrent sur leur visage, et dirent : "Ô Dieu, Dieu des esprits de toute chair, un seul homme a péché, et tu t'irriterais contre toute l'assemblée !"

KJV ²² And they fell upon their faces, and said, O God, the God of the spirits of all flesh, shall one man sin, and wilt thou be wroth with all the congregation?

BCC ²³ Yahweh parla à Moïse, en disant :

KJV ²³ And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

BCC ²⁴ "Parle à l'assemblée et dis : écartez-vous tout à l'entour de la demeure de Coré, de Dathan et d'Abiron."

KJV ²⁴ Speak unto the congregation, saying, Get you up from about the tabernacle of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram.

BCC ²⁵ Moïse se leva et alla vers Dathan et Abiron, et des anciens d'Israël allèrent après lui.

KJV ²⁵ And Moses rose up and went unto Dathan and Abiram; and the elders of Israel followed him.

BCC ²⁶ Il parla à l'assemblée, en disant : "éloignez-vous des tentes de ces méchants hommes, et ne touchez à rien de ce qui leur appartient, de peur que vous ne périssiez, enveloppés dans tous leurs péchés."

KJV ²⁶ And he spake unto the congregation, saying, Depart, I pray you, from the tents of these wicked men, and touch nothing of their's, lest ye be consumed in all their sins.

BCC ²⁷ Ils s'écartèrent tout à l'entour de la demeure de Coré, de Dathan et d'Abiron. Alors Dathan et Abiron étant sortis se tinrent à l'entrée de leurs tentes, avec leurs femmes, leurs fils et leurs petits enfants.

KJV ²⁷ So they gat up from the tabernacle of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram, on every side: and Dathan and Abiram came out, and stood in the door of their tents, and their wives, and their sons, and their little children.

BCC ²⁸ Moïse dit : "vous connaîtrez à ceci que Yahweh m'a envoyé pour faire toutes ces oeuvres, et que je n'agis pas de moi-même :

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

BCC ²⁹ Si ces gens meurent comme meurent tous les hommes, et si leur sort est celui de tous les hommes, ce n'est pas Yahweh qui m'a envoyé ;

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

BCC ³⁰ mais si Yahweh fait une chose inouïe, si la terre ouvre sa bouche et les engloutit, eux et tout ce qui leur appartient, et qu'ils descendent vivants dans le séjour des morts, vous saurez que ces gens ont méprisé Yahweh."

KJV ³⁰ But if the LORD make a new thing, and the earth open her mouth, and swallow them up, with all that appertain unto them, and they go down quick into the pit; then ye shall understand that these men have provoked the LORD.

BCC ³¹ Comme il achevait de prononcer toutes ces paroles, le sol qui était sous eux se fendit.

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

BCC ³² La terre ouvrit sa bouche et les engloutit, eux et leurs familles, avec tous les gens de Coré et tous leurs biens.

KJV ³² And the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up, and their houses, and all the men that appertained unto Korah, and all their goods.

BCC ³³ Ils descendirent vivants dans le séjour des morts, eux et tout ce qui leur appartenait ; et la terre les recouvrit, et ils disparurent du milieu de l'assemblée.

KJV ³³ They, and all that appertained to them, went down alive into the pit, and the earth closed upon them: and they perished from among the congregation.

BCC ³⁴ Tout Israël, qui était autour d'eux, s'enfuit à leur cri ; car ils disaient : "fuyons, de peur que la terre ne nous engloutisse !"

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

BCC ³⁵ Un feu sortit d'auprès de Yahweh et consuma les deux cent cinquante hommes qui offraient le parfum.

KJV ³⁵ And there came out a fire from the LORD, and consumed the two hundred and fifty men that offered incense.

KJV ³⁶ And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

KJV ³⁷ Speak unto Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, that he take up the censers out of the burning, and scatter thou the fire yonder; for they are hallowed.

KJV ³⁸ The censers of these sinners against their own souls, let them make them broad plates for a covering of the altar: for they offered them before the LORD, therefore they are hallowed: and they shall be a sign unto the children of Israel.

KJV ³⁹ And Eleazar the priest took the brasen censers, wherewith they that were burnt had offered; and they were made broad plates for a covering of the altar:

KJV ⁴⁰ To be a memorial unto the children of Israel, that no stranger, which is not of the seed of Aaron, come near to offer incense before the LORD; that he be not as Korah, and as his company: as the LORD said to him by the hand of Moses.

KJV ⁴¹ But on the morrow all the congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron, saying, Ye have killed the people of the LORD.

KJV ⁴² And it came to pass, when the congregation was gathered against Moses and against Aaron, that they looked toward the tabernacle of the congregation: and, behold, the cloud covered it, and the glory of the LORD appeared.

KJV ⁴³ And Moses and Aaron came before the tabernacle of the congregation.

KJV ⁴⁴ And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

KJV ⁴⁵ Get you up from among this congregation, that I may consume them as in a moment. And they fell upon their faces.

KJV ⁴⁶ And Moses said unto Aaron, Take a censer, and put fire therein from off the altar, and put on incense, and go quickly unto the congregation, and make an atonement for them: for there is wrath gone out from the LORD; the plague is begun.

KJV ⁴⁷ And Aaron took as Moses commanded, and ran into the midst of the congregation; and, behold, the plague was begun among the people: and he put on incense, and made an atonement for the people.

KJV ⁴⁸ And he stood between the dead and the living; and the plague was stayed.

KJV ⁴⁹ Now they that died in the plague were fourteen thousand and seven hundred, beside them that died about the matter of Korah.

KJV ⁵⁰ And Aaron returned unto Moses unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation: and the plague was stayed.
