10And he hath brought thee neere to him, and all thy brethren the sonnes of Leui with thee: and seeke ye the Priesthood also? 11For which cause both thou, and all thy company are gathered together against the Lord: and what is Aaron, that ye murmure against him? 12¶ And Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram the sonnes of Eliab: which said, We will not come vp. 13Is it a small thing that thou hast brought vs vp out of a land that floweth with milke and hony, to kill vs in the wildernesse, except thou make thy selfe altogether a prince ouer vs? 14Moreouer, thou hast not brought vs into a land that floweth with milke and hony, or giuen vs inheritance of fields and vineyards: wilt thou put out the eyes of these men? we will not come vp.
