menu_book Verse in Context

28 Moses said, “Hereby you shall know that the LORD has sent me to do all these works; for they are not from my own mind.

29 If these men die the common death of all men, or if they experience what all men experience, then the LORD hasn’t sent me.

30 But if the LORD makes a new thing, and the ground opens its mouth, and swallows them up with all that belong to them, and they go down alive into Sheol, then you shall understand that these men have despised the LORD.”

31 As he finished speaking all these words, the ground that was under them split apart.

32 The earth opened its mouth and swallowed them up with their households, all of Korah’s men, and all their goods.
