Nambar 12
1 Mosi mah Ethiopia tanu to zu haih moe, Ethiopia nongpata to zu ah a lak pongah, Miriam hoi Aaron mah Mosi to kasae thuih hoi.
Miriam and Aaron spoke against Moses because of the Cushite woman whom he had married; for he had married a Cushite woman.
2 Nihnik mah, Angraeng mah Mosi khae khue ah maw lokthuih? Aicae khaeah doeh lokthui ai maw? tiah a thuih hoi. To lok to Angraeng mah thaih.
They said, “Has the LORD indeed spoken only with Moses? Has not he spoken also with us?” And the LORD heard it.
3 (To naah Mosi loe long pum ah kaom kaminawk boih pongah doeh, poek panaemhaih tawn kami ah oh.)
Now the man Moses was very humble, more than all the men who were on the surface of the earth.
4 Angraeng mah, Mosi, Aaron hoi Miriam khaeah, Nangcae long thumto amkhuenghaih im ah angzo oh, tiah a naa. To pongah nihcae loe caeh o.
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.
5 To naah Angraeng loe tamai thung hoiah angzoh tathuk, kahni im thok taengah angdoet moe, Aaron hoi Miriam to kawk; nihnik loe hmabang ah tacawt hoi.
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.
6 Anih mah, Ka lok hae tahngai hoih; Nangcae salakah Angraeng ih tahmaa to om nahaeloe, anih khaeah hnuksakhaih hoiah kam tueng moe, anih khaeah amang ah lok ka thuih pae.
He said, “Now hear 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.
7 Toe ka tamna Mosi loe to tiah om ai; anih loe ka imthung takoh boih ah oep thok koek kami ah oh.
My servant Moses is not so. He is faithful in all my house.
8 Anih hoi lok ka thuih naah, mikhmai kangtong ah ni lok ka thuih han, thaih karai lok hoiah ka thui mak ai; anih mah Angraeng ih krang to hnu tih; tikhoe ka tamna Mosi ih lok aek hanah zithaih na tawn hoi ai loe? tiah a naa.
With him, I will speak mouth to mouth, even plainly, 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?”
9 Angraeng palungphuihaih mah nihnik to kangh, to pacoengah anih mah caehtaak.
The LORD’s anger burned against them; and he departed.
10 Tamai mah kahni im to caehtaak pacoengah, khenah, Miriam loe dantui kanglung baktiah ngansae man khrung; Aaron mah Miriam to khet naah, anih loe ngansae man kami ah a hnuk.
The cloud departed from over the Tent; and behold, Miriam was leprous, as white as snow. Aaron looked at Miriam, and behold, she was leprous.
11 To naah Aaron mah Mosi khaeah, Ka angraeng, amthuhaih hoiah ni hmuen hae ka sak hoi moeng boeh, tahmenhaih hoiah hae zaehaih hae kai hnik nuiah amtii hmah raeh, tiah a naa.
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.
12 Anih hae amno ih zok thung hoiah tacawt naah kakoep ai kami, takpum ahap kadueh kami baktiah omsak hmah, tiah a naa.
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.”
13 To pongah Mosi mah Angraeng khaeah, Aw Sithaw, tahmenhaih hoiah anih hae vaihi ngantuisak rae ah, tiah a hangh.
Moses cried to the LORD, saying, “Heal her, God, I beg you!”
14 Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah, ampa mah Miriam ih mikhmai ah pathoih nahaeloe, anih loe ni sarihto thung azathaih hoiah om mak ai maw? Anih to na oh o haih ahmuen tasa bangah ni sarihto thung suem ah, to pacoengah a thungah akunsak let ah, tiah a naa.
The LORD said to Moses, “If her father had but spit in her face, should not 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.”
15 To pongah Miriam to ataihaih im tasa bangah ni sarihto thung a suek o; Miriam a thungah akun o sak let ai karoek to, kaminawk loe kholong caeh o ai.
Miriam was shut up outside of the camp seven days, and the people did not travel until Miriam was brought in again.
16 To pacoengah kaminawk loe, Hazeroth ahmuen ah angpuen o moe, Paran praezaek ah ohhaih ahmuen takhawh o.
Afterward the people traveled from Hazeroth, and encamped in the wilderness of Paran.
