Numbers 16:36-38
New King James Version
36 Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying: 37 “Tell Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, to pick up the censers out of the blaze, for (A)they are holy, and scatter the fire some distance away. 38 The censers of (B)these men who sinned [a]against their own souls, let them be made into hammered plates as a covering for the altar. Because they presented them before the Lord, therefore they are holy; (C)and they shall be a sign to the children of Israel.”
