10 And Aaron’s sons Nadab and Abihu each took his censer, and they put fire in them and placed incense on it;a thenb they presented ⌊before⌋c Yahweh illegitimate fire, which he had not commanded them. 2 Sod fire went out ⌊from before⌋e Yahweh, and it consumed them so thatf they died ⌊before⌋g Yahweh. 3 Thereforeh Moses said to Aaron, “This is what Yahweh spoke, saying, ‘Among those who are close to me I will show myself holy, and ⌊in the presence of⌋i all the people I will display my glory.’ ”j Sok Aaron was silent.
4 Thenl Moses summoned Mishael and Elzaphan the sons of Uzziel, Aaron’s uncle, and he said to them, “Come forward.m Carry your brothers from ⌊the front of⌋n the sanctuary to ⌊outside the camp⌋.”o 5 Sop they came forward,q and they carried them ⌊outside the camp⌋r in their tunics, just as Moses had ordered.
6 Thens Moses said to Aaron and to his sons Eleazar and Ithamar, “You must not let your hair hang loosely, and you must not tear your garments, so thatt you will not die and heu will be angry with all the community. Butv your brothers, all the house of Israel, may weep because of ⌊the burning that Yahweh caused⌋,w 7 butx you must not go out from the entrance toy the tent of assembly lest you die, because Yahweh’s anointing oil is on you.” Soz they did according to Moses’ word.
