Milu Pareinae 12
1 Mosi ni Ethiopia tami a yu lah a la kecu dawkvah, Miriam hoi Aron ni Bangdawkmaw Ethiopia tami hah a yu lah a la titeh lairoekhai roi.
And Miriam and Aaron spoke against Moses, because of his wife, an Ethiopian,
2 Ahnimouh roi ni Mosi koe dueng maw, BAWIPA ni lawk a dei. Kaimouh koehai dei van hoeh na maw, telah atipouh roi e hah BAWIPA ni a thai.
and they said: “Has the Lord spoken only through Moses? Has he not also spoken similarly to us?” And when the Lord had heard this,
3 Mosi teh talai van pueng e taminaw hlak kârahnoumpoung e lah ao.
(for Moses was a man exceedingly meek, beyond all the men who were living upon the earth)
4 Hahoi, Mosi, Aron hoi Miriam koevah BAWIPA ni kathum touh hoi tâcawt awh. Kamkhuengnae lukkareiim koe tho awh, telah atipouh. Hot patetlah kathum touh hoi a tâco awh.
immediately he spoke to him, and to Aaron and Miriam, “Go out, you three only, to the tabernacle of the covenant.” And when they had gone out,
5 BAWIPA ni tâmai khom lahoi a kum teh, kamkhuengnae bawkim takhang koe a kangdue pouh. Aron hoi Miriam a kaw teh, kahni touh hoi hmalah a tâco roi.
the Lord descended in a column of cloud, and he stood at the entrance of the tabernacle, calling to Aaron and Miriam. And when they had advanced,
6 Ahni ni ka lawk hah thai roi haw, nangmouh rahak profet awm pawiteh, ahni teh kai BAWIPA ni vision ka panuesak han, a mang lahoi ka pato han.
he said to them: “Listen to my words. If there will be among you a prophet of the Lord, I will appear to him in a vision, or I will speak to him through a dream.
7 Ka san Mosi teh hot patetlah awm hoeh. Ka imthungnaw pueng kong dawkvah yuemkamcu.
But it is not so with my servant Moses, who is the most faithful in all my house.
8 Arulahoi laipalah, minhmai phek kadangka hoi kacaipinlah lawk ka dei pouh. BAWIPA meilam hai a hmu. Hot patetlah bangkongmaw ka san Mosi heh phuenang sin hanlah louk na ngai roi vaw, telah atipouh.
For I speak with him mouth to mouth, and plainly. And not through enigmas and figures does he perceive the Lord. Therefore, why were you not afraid to disparage my servant Moses?”
9 Hot patetlah BAWIPA ni ahnimouh roi koe a lungkhuek teh a ceitakhai.
And being angry against them, he went away.
10 Hahoi lukkareiim koehoi tâmai a kâtawm teh, khenhaw, Miriam teh tadamtui patetlah a pangaw teh hrikbei lah a coung. Aron ni Miriam hah a khet teh, khenhaw a hrikbei toe hei ati.
Likewise, the cloud which was over the tabernacle withdrew. And behold, Miriam appeared to be white with a leprosy, like snow. And when Aaron had looked upon her, and he had seen the spreading of the leprosy,
11 Hahoi Aron ni Mosi koevah, Oe ka bawipa, kai koe hete yon heh kamtue sak hanh. Pathu lahoi ka sak teh ka payon toe.
he said to Moses: “I beg you, my lord, not to impose upon us this sin, which we have committed foolishly.
12 Tami a manu von kâko hoi a tâco teh, kadout tangcoung e patetlah hete napui hah awm sak hanh telah ati.
Do not let this one be like one who is dead, or like an abortion that has been cast from the womb of her mother. Behold, half of her flesh is already consumed by leprosy.”
13 Mosi teh BAWIPA koevah a hram teh, Oe Cathut pahren lahoi hawi sak haw telah a ratoum.
And Moses cried out to the Lord, saying, “O God, I beg you: heal her.”
14 BAWIPA ni Mosi koevah, na pa ni a minhmai dawk a tamthawi e patenghai hnin sari touh teh kayak mahoeh maw. Roenae alawilah hnin sari touh kâhrawk naseh, hahoi bout kâenkhai awh naseh telah atipouh.
And the Lord answered him: “If her father had spit on her face, should she not have been filled with shame for at least seven days? Let her be separated, outside the camp, for seven days, and after that, she will be called back.”
15 Hot patetlah, Miriam teh roenae alawilah hnin sari touh a kâhro. Miriam a kâenkhai awh hoehroukrak, tamimaya teh cet awh hoeh
And so Miriam was excluded from the camp for seven days. And the people did not move from that place, until Miriam was called back.
16 Hahoi, taminaw teh Hazeroth hoi a kamthaw awh teh, Paran kahrawngum vah a roe awh.
And the people set out from Hazeroth, and they pitched their tents in the desert of Paran.
