Leviticus 10:1

¶ And Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, took either of them his censer, and put fire therein, and put incense thereon, and offered strange fire before the LORD, which he commanded them not.

And Nadab {H5070} and Abihu {H30}, the sons {H1121} of Aaron {H175}, took {H3947} either {H376} of them his censer {H4289}, and put {H5414} fire {H784} therein {H2004}, and put {H7760} incense {H7004} thereon, and offered {H7126} strange {H2114} fire {H784} before {H6440} the LORD {H3068}, which he commanded {H6680} them not.

But Nadav and Avihu, sons of Aharon, each took his censer, put fire in it, laid incense on it, and offered unauthorized fire before ADONAI, something he had not ordered them to do.

Now Aaron’s sons Nadab and Abihu took their censers, put fire in them and added incense, and offered unauthorized fire before the LORD, contrary to His command.

And Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, took each of them his censer, and put fire therein, and laid incense thereon, and offered strange fire before Jehovah, which he had not commanded them.
