Psalm 105:17
Douay-Rheims
The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan: and covered the congregation of Abiron.
Augustine of Hippo
"The earth opened," he says, "and swallowed up Dathan, and covered over the congregation of Abiram" [Psalm 106:17]: "swallowed up" answers to "covered over." Both Dathan and Abiram were equally concerned in a most sacrilegious schism.
