So they brought to the front of the meeting tent what Moses had told them. All the people came near and stood before the Lord.

So Aaron came to the altar and killed the calf of the sin gift, which was for himself.

So the Lord sent out fire that burned them up and they died before the Lord.

So they came and carried them in their coats away from the tents, as Moses had said.
