"And they tookª° every manª his censer,ª and putª° fireª in¹ them, and laidª° incenseª thereon,¹ and stoodª° in the doorª of the tabernacleª of the congregationª with Mosesª and Aaron.ª" {Num 16:18} + "And there came outª° a fireª from¹¹ the LORD,ª and consumedª° the¹ two hundredª and fiftyª menª that offeredª° incense.ª" {Num 16:35} + "And he wentª° afterª the manª of Israelª into¹ the tent,ª and thrustª°¹ bothª of them through,¹ the manª of Israel,ª and the womanª throughª her belly.ª So the plagueª was stayedª° from¹¹ the childrenª of Israel.ª ... Phinehas,ª the sonª of Eleazar,ª the sonª of Aaronª the priest,ª hath turned²° my wrath² awayª°¹¹ from¹¹ the childrenª of Israel,ª while he was zealousª° for my sakeª¹ amongª them, that I consumedª° not¹¹ the childrenª of Israelª in my jealousy.ª" {Num 25:8-11} + "And when the angelª stretched outª° his handª upon Jerusalemª to destroyª° it, the LORDª repented²° him¹ of¹ the evil,ª and saidª° to the angelª that destroyedª° the people,ª It is enough:ª stayª° now¹ thine hand.ª And the angelª of the LORDª was¹ by¹ the threshingplaceª of Araunahª the Jebusite.ª ... And Davidª spakeª° unto¹ the LORDª when he sawª°¹ the angelª that smoteª° the people,ª and said,ª° Lo,¹ I¹ have sinned,ª° and I¹ have done wickedly:ª° but these¹ sheep,ª what¹ have they done?ª° let thine hand,ª I pray thee,¹ be¹ against me, and against my father'sª house.ª" {2Sm 24:16-17} + "And Davidª builtª° there¹ an altarª unto the LORD,ª and offeredª° burnt offeringsª and peace offerings.ª So the LORDª was intreatedª° for the land,ª and the plagueª was stayedª° from¹¹ Israel.ª" {2Sm 24:25} + "And Davidª builtª° there¹ an altarª unto the LORD,ª and offeredª° burnt offeringsª and peace offerings,ª and calledª° upon¹ the LORD;ª and he answeredª° him from¹ heavenª by fireª upon¹ the altarª of burnt offering.ª ...
