Moses is referring to the events of Numbers 16, when Dathan and Abiram joined Korah to rebel against Moses. Yahweh chose Moses to be their leader, so they were also rebelling against Yahweh.

Alternate translation: “and how he punished Dathan and Abiram for their rebellion by causing the earth to swallow up them, everyone with them, and everything they owned”
