4 Mosebog 12
1 Mirjam og Aron tog til Orde mod Moses i Anledning af den kusjitiske Kvinde, han havde ægtet — han havde nemlig ægtet en kusjitisk Kvinde —
Miriam [Rebellion] and Aaron [Light-bringer] spoke against Moses [Drawn out] because of the Cushite woman whom he had married; for he had married a Cushite woman.
2 og sagde: »Har HERREN kun talet til Moses? Mon han ikke ogsaa har talet til os?« Og HERREN hørte det.
They said, “Has Adonai indeed spoken only with Moses [Drawn out]? Has not he spoken also with us?” And Adonai sh'ma ·heard obeyed· it.
3 Men den Mand Moses var saare sagtmodig, sagtmodigere end noget andet Menneske paa Jorden.
Now the man Moses [Drawn out] was very humble, more than all the men who were on the surface of the earth.
4 Da sagde HERREN i det samme til Moses, Aron og Mirjam: »Gaa alle tre ud til Aabenbaringsteltet!« Og de gik alle tre derud.
Adonai spoke suddenly to Moses [Drawn out], to Aaron [Light-bringer], and to Miriam [Rebellion], “You three come out to the Tent of Meeting!” The three of them came out.
5 Men HERREN steg ned i Skystøtten og stillede sig ved Indgangen til Teltet og kaldte paa Aron og Mirjam, og de gik begge derud.
Adonai came down in a pillar of cloud, and stood at the door of the Tent, and called Aaron [Light-bringer] and Miriam [Rebellion]; and they both came forward.
6 Da sagde han: »Hør, hvad jeg siger: Naar der ellers er en Profet iblandt eder, giver jeg mig til Kende for ham i Syner eller taler med ham i Drømme.
He said, “Now sh'ma ·hear obey· my words. If there is a prophet among you, I, Adonai, will make myself known to him in a vision. I will speak with him in a dream.
7 Anderledes er det med min Tjener Moses: han er tro i hele mit Hus;
My servant Moses [Drawn out] is not so. He is faithful in all my house.
8 med ham taler jeg Ansigt til Ansigt, ikke i Syner eller Gaader, han skuer HERRENS Skikkelse; hvor tør I da tage til Orde mod min Tjener Moses?«
With him, I will speak mouth to mouth, even plainly, and not in riddles; and he shall see Adonai’s form. Why then were you not afraid to speak against my servant, against Moses [Drawn out]?”
9 Og HERRENS Vrede blussede op imod dem, og han gik bort.
Adonai’s anger burned against them; and he departed.
10 Da saa Skyen trak sig bort fra Teltet, se, da var Mirjam hvid som Sne af Spedalskhed, og da Aron vendte sig mod Mirjam, se, da var hun spedalsk.
The cloud departed from over the Tent; and behold, Miriam [Rebellion] was leprous, as white as snow. Aaron [Light-bringer] looked at Miriam [Rebellion], and behold, she was leprous.
11 Da sagde Aron til Moses: »Ak, Herre, lad os dog ikke undgælde for den Synd, vi i Daarskab begik!
Aaron [Light-bringer] said to Moses [Drawn out], “Oh, my lord, please don’t count this habitual sin ·missing the mark· against us, in which we have done foolishly, and in which we have sinned ·deviated (from the standard goal)·.
12 Lad hende dog ikke blive som et dødfødt Barn, hvis Kød er halvt fortæret, naar det kommer ud af Moders Liv!«
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 Moses raabte da til HERREN og sagde: »Ak, gør hende dog rask igen!«
Moses [Drawn out] cried to Adonai, saying, “Heal her, God, I beg you!”
14 Og HERREN svarede Moses: »Hvis hendes Fader havde spyttet hende i Ansigtet, maatte hun da ikke have baaret sin Skam i syv Dage? Derfor skal hun i syv Dage være udelukket fra Lejren; saa kan hun atter optages.«
Adonai said to Moses [Drawn out], “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 Da blev Mirjam udelukket fra Lejren i syv Dage, og Folket brød ikke op, før Mirjam atter var optaget.
Miriam [Rebellion] was shut up outside of the camp seven days, and the people didn’t travel until Miriam [Rebellion] was brought in again.
16 Saa brød Folket op fra Hazerot og slog Lejr i Parans Ørken.
Afterward the people traveled from Hazeroth, and encamped in the wilderness of Paran.
