Numbers 16:12-14
The Voice
12 Bring the brothers Dathan and Abiram (Eliab’s sons) to me.
Dathan and Abiram: Forget it. We are not going to come running at your bidding. 13 You took us out of a place that was so rich—Egypt, flowing with milk and honey—in order to let us die in this desert wasteland, and now you’re actually trying to assert yourself as our ruler. 14 You haven’t brought us to a land flowing with milk and honey or delivered on your promise of fields and vineyards to call our own. What else will you do? Are you going to pluck out the eyes of these 250 men now? There’s no way we’re coming to you.

New International Version
12 Then Moses summoned Dathan and Abiram,(A) the sons of Eliab. But they said, “We will not come!(B) 13 Isn’t it enough that you have brought us up out of a land flowing with milk and honey(C) to kill us in the wilderness?(D) And now you also want to lord it over us!(E) 14 Moreover, you haven’t brought us into a land flowing with milk and honey(F) or given us an inheritance of fields and vineyards.(G) Do you want to treat these men like slaves[a]?(H) No, we will not come!(I)”
