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.
Then Miriam and Aaron spoke against Moses because of the Cushite woman whom he had married.
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 Yahweh spoken only with Moses? Has he not spoken also with us?” Now Yahweh heard what they said.
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, humbler than anyone else on 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.
Right away Yahweh spoke to Moses, Aaron, and Miriam: “Come out, you three, to the tent of meeting.” So the three of them went 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.
Then Yahweh came down in a pillar of cloud. He stood at the entrance to the tent and called Aaron and Miriam. 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.
Yahweh said, “Now listen to my words. When a prophet of mine is with you, I will reveal myself to him in visions and speak to him in dreams.
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 like that. 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.
I speak to Moses directly, not with visions or riddles. He sees my form. So why are you unafraid to speak against my servant, against Moses?”
9 Angraeng palungphuihaih mah nihnik to kangh, to pacoengah anih mah caehtaak.
Yahweh's anger burned against them, and then he left them.
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 rose from over the tent, and Miriam was suddenly leprous—she was as white as snow. When Aaron turned toward Miriam, he saw that she had leprosy.
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 master, please do not hold this sin against us. We have spoken foolishly, and 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.
Please do not let her be like a dead newborn whose flesh is half consumed when it emerges from its mother's womb.”
13 To pongah Mosi mah Angraeng khaeah, Aw Sithaw, tahmenhaih hoiah anih hae vaihi ngantuisak rae ah, tiah a hangh.
So Moses called out to Yahweh. He said, “Please heal her, God, please.”
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.
Yahweh said to Moses, “If her father had spit in her face, she would be disgraced for seven days. Shut her outside the camp for seven days. After that bring her 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.
So Miriam was shut outside the camp for seven days. The people did not journey until she had returned to the camp.
16 To pacoengah kaminawk loe, Hazeroth ahmuen ah angpuen o moe, Paran praezaek ah ohhaih ahmuen takhawh o.
After that, the people journeyed from Hazeroth and camped in the wilderness of Paran.
