Numbers 16:27

AbiramDathanKorah

25 So Moses got up and went to Dathan and Abiram, and the elders of Israel followed him.

26 And he warned the congregation, “Move away now from the tents of these wicked men. Do not touch anything that belongs to them, or you will be swept away because of all their sins.”

So they moved away from the dwellings of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram. Meanwhile, Dathan and Abiram had come out and stood at the entrances to their tents with their wives and children and infants.

28 Then Moses said, “This is how you will know that the LORD has sent me to do all these things, for it was not my own doing:

29 If these men die a natural death, or if they suffer the fate of all men, then the LORD has not sent me.
