Fire consumes the two hundred fifty, and their censers cover the altar

여호와의 불이 이백오십 인을 소멸하고 그 향로로 제단을 쌈

Numbers 16:35–40: fire comes out from the LORD and devours the two hundred fifty men who offered the incense. The LORD tells Moses to have Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest take up the censers out of the burning and scatter the fire away; the censers are holy, because they were offered before the LORD, and are to be beaten into plates as a covering for the altar, a sign to the children of Israel. Eleazar the priest takes the bronze censers that the burned men had offered, and they are beaten out as a covering for the altar: a memorial that no stranger who is not of the offspring of Aaron is to come near to burn incense before the LORD, and that no one is to be as Korah and his company.

³⁵Fire came out from the LORD, and devoured the two hundred fifty men who offered the incense.
³⁶The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
³⁷“Speak to Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, that he take up the censers out of the burning, and scatter the fire away from the camp; for they are holy,
³⁸even the censers of those who sinned against their own lives. Let them be beaten into plates for a covering of the altar, for they offered them before the LORD. Therefore they are holy. They shall be a sign to the children of Israel.”
³⁹Eleazar the priest took the bronze censers which those who were burned had offered; and they beat them out for a covering of the altar,
⁴⁰to be a memorial to the children of Israel, to the end that no stranger who isn’t of the offspring of Aaron, would come near to burn incense before the LORD, that he not be as Korah and as his company; as the LORD spoke to him by Moses.
