Numbers 16:31 in Context — Numbers 16

29 Si ces gens meurent comme tous les hommes meurent, s’ils subissent le sort commun à tous les hommes, ce n’est pas l’Éternel qui m’a envoyé;

30 mais si l’Éternel fait une chose inouïe, si la terre ouvre sa bouche pour les engloutir avec tout ce qui leur appartient, et qu’ils descendent vivants dans le séjour des morts, vous saurez alors que ces gens ont méprisé l’Éternel.

31 Comme il achevait de prononcer toutes ces paroles, la terre qui était sous eux se fendit.

32 La terre ouvrit sa bouche, et les engloutit, eux et leurs maisons, avec tous les gens de Koré et tous leurs biens.

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