اَلْعَدَد 12

١ 1 وَتَكَلَّمَتْ مَرْيَمُ وَهَارُونُ عَلَى مُوسَى بِسَبَبِ ٱلْمَرْأَةِ ٱلْكُوشِيَّةِ ٱلَّتِي ٱتَّخَذَهَا، لِأَنَّهُ كَانَ قَدِ ٱتَّخَذَ ٱمْرَأَةً كُوشِيَّةً.

Miriam and Aaron spoke against Moses because of the Cushite woman whom he had married; for he had married a Cushite woman.

٢ 2 فَقَالَا: «هَلْ كَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى وَحْدَهُ؟ أَلَمْ يُكَلِّمْنَا نَحْنُ أَيْضًا؟» فَسَمِعَ ٱلرَّبُّ.

They said, "Has the LORD indeed spoken only with Moses? Hasn't he spoken also with us?" And the LORD heard it.

٣ 3 وَأَمَّا ٱلرَّجُلُ مُوسَى فَكَانَ حَلِيمًا جِدًّا أَكْثَرَ مِنْ جَمِيعِ ٱلنَّاسِ ٱلَّذِينَ عَلَى وَجْهِ ٱلْأَرْضِ.

Now the man Moses was very humble, above all the men who were on the surface of the earth.

٤ 4 فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ حَالًا لِمُوسَى وَهَارُونَ وَمَرْيَمَ: «ٱخْرُجُوا أَنْتُمُ ٱلثَّلَاثَةُ إِلَى خَيْمَةِ ٱلِٱجْتِمَاعِ». فَخَرَجُوا هُمُ ٱلثَّلَاثَةُ.

The LORD spoke suddenly to Moses, to Aaron, and to Miriam, "You three come out to the Tent of Meeting." The three of them came out.

٥ 5 فَنَزَلَ ٱلرَّبُّ فِي عَمُودِ سَحَابٍ وَوَقَفَ فِي بَابِ ٱلْخَيْمَةِ، وَدَعَا هَارُونَ وَمَرْيَمَ فَخَرَجَا كِلَاهُمَا.

The LORD came down in a pillar of cloud, and stood at the door of the Tent, and called Aaron and Miriam; and they both came forward.

٦ 6 فَقَالَ: «ٱسْمَعَا كَلَامِي. إِنْ كَانَ مِنْكُمْ نَبِيٌّ لِلرَّبِّ، فَبِالرُّؤْيَا أَسْتَعْلِنُ لَهُ. فِي ٱلْحُلْمِ أُكَلِّمُهُ.

He said, "Hear now my words. If there is a prophet among you, I the LORD will make myself known to him in a vision. I will speak with him in a dream.

٧ 7 وَأَمَّا عَبْدِي مُوسَى فَلَيْسَ هَكَذَا، بَلْ هُوَ أَمِينٌ فِي كُلِّ بَيْتِي.

My servant Moses is not so. He is faithful in all my house.

٨ 8 فَمًا إِلَى فَمٍ وَعَيَانًا أَتَكَلَّمُ مَعَهُ، لَا بِٱلْأَلْغَازِ. وَشِبْهَ ٱلرَّبِّ يُعَايِنُ. فَلِمَاذَا لَا تَخْشَيَانِ أَنْ تَتَكَلَّمَا عَلَى عَبْدِي مُوسَى؟».

With him I will speak mouth to mouth, even openly, and not in riddles; and he shall see the LORD's form. Why then were you not afraid to speak against my servant, against Moses?"

٩ 9 فَحَمِيَ غَضَبُ ٱلرَّبِّ عَلَيْهِمَا وَمَضَى.

The anger of the LORD was kindled against them; and he departed.

١٠ 10 فَلَمَّا ٱرْتَفَعَتِ ٱلسَّحَابَةُ عَنِ ٱلْخَيْمَةِ إِذَا مَرْيَمُ بَرْصَاءُ كَٱلثَّلْجِ. فَٱلْتَفَتَ هَارُونُ إِلَى مَرْيَمَ وَإِذَا هِيَ بَرْصَاءُ.

The cloud departed from over the Tent; and look, Miriam was leprous, as white as snow. Aaron looked at Miriam, and look, she was leprous.

١١ 11 فَقَالَ هَارُونُ لِمُوسَى: «أَسْأَلُكَ يَا سَيِّدِي، لَا تَجْعَلْ عَلَيْنَا ٱلْخَطِيَّةَ ٱلَّتِي حَمِقْنَا وَأَخْطَأْنَا بِهَا.

Aaron said to Moses, "Oh, my lord, please do not count this sin against us, in which we have done foolishly, and in which we have sinned.

١٢ 12 فَلَا تَكُنْ كَٱلْمَيْتِ ٱلَّذِي يَكُونُ عِنْدَ خُرُوجِهِ مِنْ رَحِمِ أُمِّهِ قَدْ أُكِلَ نِصْفُ لَحْمِهِ».

Let her not, I pray, be as one dead, of whom the flesh is half consumed when he comes out of his mother's womb."

١٣ 13 فَصَرَخَ مُوسَى إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا: «ٱللَّهُمَّ ٱشْفِهَا».

Moses cried to the LORD, saying, "Heal her, God, I beg you."

١٤ 14 فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «وَلَوْ بَصَقَ أَبُوهَا بَصْقًا فِي وَجْهِهَا، أَمَا كَانَتْ تَخْجَلُ سَبْعَةَ أَيَّامٍ؟ تُحْجَزُ سَبْعَةَ أَيَّامٍ خَارِجَ ٱلْمَحَلَّةِ، وَبَعْدَ ذَلِكَ تُرْجَعُ».

The LORD said to Moses, "If her father had but spit in her face, shouldn't she be ashamed seven days? Let her be shut up outside of the camp seven days, and after that she shall be brought in again."

١٥ 15 فَحُجِزَتْ مَرْيَمُ خَارِجَ ٱلْمَحَلَّةِ سَبْعَةَ أَيَّامٍ، وَلَمْ يَرْتَحِلِ ٱلشَّعْبُ حَتَّى أُرْجِعَتْ مَرْيَمُ.

Miriam was shut up outside of the camp seven days, and the people did not travel until Miriam was brought in again.

١٦ 16 وَبَعْدَ ذَلِكَ ٱرْتَحَلَ ٱلشَّعْبُ مِنْ حَضَيْرُوتَ وَنَزَلُوا فِي بَرِّيَّةِ فَارَانَ.

Afterward the people traveled from Hazeroth, and camped in the wilderness of Paran.
