Numbers 12 - CEVUS06 & MB

Miriam and Aaron Are Jealous of Moses

1-3 Although Moses was the most humble person in all the world, Miriam and Aaron started complaining, “Moses had no right to marry that woman from Ethiopia! Who does he think he is? The Lord has spoken to us, not just to him.”

The Lord heard their complaint 4 and told Moses, Aaron, and Miriam to come to the entrance of the sacred tent. 5 There the Lord appeared in a cloud and told Aaron and Miriam to come closer. 6 Then after commanding them to listen carefully, he said:

“I, the Lord, speak to prophets

in visions and dreams.

7 But my servant Moses

is the leader of my people.

8 He sees me face to face,

and everything I say to him

is perfectly clear.

You have no right to criticize

my servant Moses.”

9 The Lord became angry with Aaron and Miriam. And after the Lord left 10 and the cloud disappeared from over the sacred tent, Miriam's skin turned white with leprosy. When Aaron saw what had happened to her, 11 he said to Moses, “Sir, please don't punish us for doing such a foolish thing. 12 Don't let Miriam's flesh rot away like a child born dead!”

13 Moses prayed, “Lord God, please heal her.”

14 But the Lord replied, “Miriam would be disgraced for seven days if her father had punished her by spitting in her face. So make her stay outside the camp for seven days, before coming back.”

15 The people of Israel did not move their camp until Miriam returned seven days later. 16 Then they left Hazeroth and set up camp in the Paran Desert.

Ondro nebi aza ka'dote orivoya ami lako, ma Opi ma'ba andivo maro te unine anyari rulofo si, ago ma ata anyari tori si. 7 Oko ruindu'ba maro Musa be ko oso inye, nda orivoya 'dise 'diriro yi zo maro ya. 8 Ma ata ṛo nda be miya miya, ṛo ŋbelero ago ko lapidriopi si; ago nda ndre beti ma OPI rote.

Mi'ba anya kori tesi ni gawa yasi u'duna njidrieri, 'do vosi oko a'dena gwo ogone anya logone gawa ya.” 15 Ta'dota olofo Miriama teni gawa yasi u'duna njidrieri, ago lidri rite oyiako madale ago ologo Miriama lutu. 16 'Do vosi oko ànya e'be Azerota te ago otoyi gawa te vocowa Parana roya.
