Wisdom of Ben Sira 45:18-20
New Catholic Bible
18 Others became envious of Aaron
and conspired against him in the wilderness:
Dathan and Abiram and their followers,
and the band of Korah in defiant wrath.
19 The Lord saw this and was angered;
in his burning wrath he destroyed them.
He worked miracles against them,
as they were consumed in his blazing fire.
20 Then he increased the glory of Aaron
and gave him a heritage;
he allotted to him the choicest offerings of the firstfruits,
thus ensuring that they would have bread in abundance.
