32 And opening its mouth, it devoured them with their tabernacles and their entire substance.
33 And they descended alive, the ground closing around them, into the underworld, and they perished from the midst of the multitude.

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