Numbers 16:38-40
1599 Geneva Bible
38 The censers, I say, of these sinners, that destroyed [a]themselves: and let them make of them broad plates for a covering of the Altar: for they offered them before the Lord, therefore they shall be holy, and they shall be a [b]sign unto the children of Israel.
39 Then Eleazar the Priest took the brazen censers, which they that were burnt had offered, and made broad plates of them for a covering of the Altar.
40 It is a remembrance 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 like [c]Korah and his company, as the Lord said to him by the hand of Moses.
