While the meat was yet between their teeth, before it was consumed, the anger of the Lord was kindled against the people, and the Lord struck down the people with a very great plague.
But before they had satisfied their craving, while the food was still in their mouths, the anger of God rose against them, and he killed the strongest of them and laid low the young men of Israel.
But they had a wanton craving in the wilderness, and put God to the test in the desert; he gave them what they asked, but sent a wasting disease among them.
Nevertheless, those who died by the plague were twenty-four thousand.
Now those who died in the plague were 14,700, besides those who died in the affair of Korah.
The Lord will strike you with the boils of Egypt, and with tumors and scabs and itch, of which you cannot be healed.
