⁴⁷ Aaron took his incense burner, as Moses told him, and ran into the middle of the assembly, because the plague had already begun among the people. He put incense on the incense burner to make peace with the Lord for the people. ⁴⁸ He stood between those who had died and those who were still alive, and the plague stopped. ⁴⁹ Still, 14,700 died from the plague in addition to those who had died because of Korah.
