And all Israel that {were} round about them fled at the cry of them: for they said, Lest the earth swallow us up {also}.

And there came out a fire from the LORD, and consumed the two hundred and fifty men that offered incense.

Speak unto Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, that he take up the censers out of the burning, and scatter thou the fire yonder; for they are hallowed.

The censers of these sinners against their own souls, let them make them broad plates {for} a covering of the altar: for they offered them before the LORD, therefore they are hallowed: and they shall be a sign unto the children of Israel.
