Leviticus 10:1-5 ▼

1 Aaron's sons Nadab and Abihu each took his own censer, placed fire in it, covered it with incense, and brought it into the LORD's presence as unauthorized fire that he had never prescribed for them.

2 As a result, fire came out from the LORD's presence and incinerated them. They died while in the LORD's presence.

3 Moses spoke with Aaron about what the LORD had said: |Among those who are near me, I'll show myself holy so that I'll be glorified before all people.| So Aaron remained silent.

4 Then Moses called on Mishael and Elzaphan, the sons of Uzziel, Aaron's uncle, and said, |Come here and carry your brothers away from the sanctuary, outside the camp.|

5 So they approached to carry them in their tunics outside the camp, just as Moses had commanded.
