< Lampahnah 12 >

1 Moses loh Kushi nu a loh vanbangla a loh Kushi nu kah a kongmai dongah Miriam neh Aaron loh a thet.
Then Miriam and Aaron spoke against Moses because of the Cushite woman whom he had married.
2 Te vaengah, “Moses lamlong bueng a BOEIPA loh a thui eh? Mamih rhoi lamlong khaw thui mahpawt nim?” a ti rhoi vaengah BOEIPA loh a yaak.
They said, “Has Yahweh spoken only with Moses? Has he not spoken also with us?” Now Yahweh heard what they said.
3 Tedae Moses tah a kodo uet ah diklai hman kah hlang boeih lakah kodo tangkik hlang la om.
Now the man Moses was very humble, humbler than anyone else on earth.
4 Te dongah BOEIPA loh Moses taeng neh Aaron taengah khaw Miriam taengah khaw, “Nangmih pathum te tingtunnah dap la ha lo uh,” thaeng a ti nah tih a pathum la cet uh.
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 Te vaengah BOEIPA te cingmai tung la suntla tih dap thohka ah pai. Te phoeiah Aaron neh Miriam te a khue tih amih rhoi thoeih rhoi.
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 Te phoeiah, “Kai ol he hnatun rhoi laeh, nangmih kah tonghma om koinih, BOEIPA he anih taengah mangthuinah neh mueimang ah ka phoe vetih anih te ka voek pawnko.
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 Ka sal Moses tah te moenih, ka imkhui pum ah anih tah a uepom ta.
My servant Moses is not like that. He is faithful in all my house.
8 Ka ka dongkah olka te anih taengah ka thui vaengah a hmuethma khaw olkael a om moenih. BOEIPA muei a paelki vaengah he balae tih ka sal Moses taengah cal ham khaw na rhih pawh?” a ti nah.
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 BOEIPA kah thintoek te amih rhoi taengah sai tih cet.
Yahweh's anger burned against them, and then he left them.
10 Te phoeiah cingmai te dap so lamloh nong. Te vaengah Miriam te vuelsong bangla pahuk tih Aaron te Miriam taengla a mael vaengah tarha ana pahuk coeng.
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 Aaron loh Moses te, “Aw ka boeipa, kaimih rhoi soah tholh han dueh mai boeh, ka nga rhoi tih ka tholh oeh te.
Aaron said to Moses, “Oh, my master, please do not hold this sin against us. We have spoken foolishly, and we have sinned.
12 A manu bung lamloh a thoeng vaengah a saa rhakthuem a caak pah vaengkah a duek bangla om mai boel saeh,” a ti nah.
Please do not let her be like a dead newborn whose flesh is half consumed when it emerges from its mother's womb.”
13 Te dongah Moses te BOEIPA taengah pang tih, “Pathen aw anih he hoeih sak mai laeh,” a ti nah.
So Moses called out to Yahweh. He said, “Please heal her, God, please.”
14 BOEIPA loh Moses te, “A napa loh a maelhmai ah a timthoeih la a timthoeih coeng atah hnin rhih a hmaithae mahpawt nim? Rhaehhmuen lamloh vongvoel ah hnin rhih om saeh lamtah khue mai saeh,” a ti nah.
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 Te dongah Miriam te rhaehhmuen vongvoel ah hnin rhih a khoh uh tih Miriam a mael duela pilnam khaw cet pawh.
So Miriam was shut outside the camp for seven days. The people did not journey until she had returned to the camp.
16 Te phoeiah pilnam te Hazeroth lamloh cet tih Paran khosoek ah rhaeh uh.
After that, the people journeyed from Hazeroth and camped in the wilderness of Paran.
