And he hath brought thee near to him, and all thy brethren the sons of Levi with thee: and seek ye the priesthood also?

Verse 10 is found in chapter 16 of Numbers. Korah, together with Dathan and Abiram, challenges the authority of Moses and Aaron. Their argument uses the holiness of the entire congregation to question the priestly distinction. Moses responds by proposing a test through which God will determine whom he has chosen. The conflict reveals how a partial truth about Israel’s holiness can be used to challenge responsibilities that God himself established.

Er hat dich und alle deine Brüder, die Kinder Levi, samt dir zu sich genommen; und ihr sucht nun auch das Priestertum?
¿Y que te hizo acercar a ti, y a todos tus hermanos los hijos de Leví contigo; para que procuréis también el sacerdocio?
Te ha acercado a ti y a todos tus hermanos, los hijos de Leví, contigo. ¿Y buscan también el sacerdocio?
Il vous a fait approcher de lui, toi, et tous tes frères, les enfants de Lévi, et vous voulez encore le sacerdoce!
E ch’egli abbia in effetto fatto accostar te, e tutti i tuoi fratelli, figliuoli di Levi, teco; che voi procacciate ancora il sacerdozio?
E te fez chegar, e todos os teus irmãos, os filhos de Levi, contigo? ainda também procurais o sacerdócio?
耶和華已經准許你和你所有的弟兄,就是 利未 的子孫,一同親近他,你們還要求祭司的職分嗎?
