33 And they descended alive, the ground closing around them, into the underworld, and they perished from the midst of the mulititude.

34 Yet truly, all of Israel, which was standing all around, took flight at the clamor of those who were perishing, saying, “Lest perhaps the earth may swallow us whole also.”

35 Then, too, a fire, going forth from the Lord, put to death the two hundred fifty men who were offering the incense.
