2. So fire went out from before Yahweh, and it consumed them so that they died before Yahweh.
3. Therefore Moses said to Aaron, “This is what Yahweh spoke, saying, ‘Among those who are close to me I will show myself holy, and in the presence of all the people I will display my glory.’ ” So Aaron was silent.
