< Numbers 12 >
1 Miriam and Aaron spoke against Moses because of the Cushite woman whom he had married; for he had married a Cushite woman.
Miryam serta Harun mengatai Musa berkenaan dengan perempuan Kush yang diambilnya, sebab memang ia telah mengambil seorang perempuan Kush.
2 They said, “Has the LORD indeed spoken only with Moses? Has not he spoken also with us?” And the LORD heard it.
Kata mereka: "Sungguhkah TUHAN berfirman dengan perantaraan Musa saja? Bukankah dengan perantaraan kita juga Ia berfirman?" Dan kedengaranlah hal itu kepada TUHAN.
3 Now the man Moses was very humble, more than all the men who were on the surface of the earth.
Adapun Musa ialah seorang yang sangat lembut hatinya, lebih dari setiap manusia yang di atas muka bumi.
4 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.
Lalu berfirmanlah TUHAN dengan tiba-tiba kepada Musa, Harun dan Miryam: "Keluarlah kamu bertiga ke Kemah Pertemuan." Maka keluarlah mereka bertiga.
5 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.
Lalu turunlah TUHAN dalam tiang awan, dan berdiri di pintu kemah itu, lalu memanggil Harun dan Miryam; maka tampillah mereka keduanya.
6 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.
Lalu berfirmanlah Ia: "Dengarlah firman-Ku ini. Jika di antara kamu ada seorang nabi, maka Aku, TUHAN menyatakan diri-Ku kepadanya dalam penglihatan, Aku berbicara dengan dia dalam mimpi.
7 My servant Moses is not so. He is faithful in all my house.
Bukan demikian hamba-Ku Musa, seorang yang setia dalam segenap rumah-Ku.
8 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?”
Berhadap-hadapan Aku berbicara dengan dia, terus terang, bukan dengan teka-teki, dan ia memandang rupa TUHAN. Mengapakah kamu tidak takut mengatai hamba-Ku Musa?"
9 The LORD’s anger burned against them; and he departed.
Sebab itu bangkitlah murka TUHAN terhadap mereka, lalu pergilah Ia.
10 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.
Dan ketika awan telah naik dari atas kemah, maka tampaklah Miryam kena kusta, putih seperti salju; ketika Harun berpaling kepada Miryam, maka dilihatnya, bahwa dia kena kusta!
11 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.
Lalu kata Harun kepada Musa: "Ah tuanku, janganlah kiranya timpakan kepada kami dosa ini, yang kami perbuat dalam kebodohan kami.
12 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.”
Janganlah kiranya dibiarkan dia sebagai anak gugur, yang pada waktu keluar dari kandungan ibunya sudah setengah busuk dagingnya."
13 Moses cried to the LORD, saying, “Heal her, God, I beg you!”
Lalu berserulah Musa kepada TUHAN: "Ya Allah, sembuhkanlah kiranya dia."
14 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.”
Kemudian berfirmanlah TUHAN kepada Musa: "Sekiranya ayahnya meludahi mukanya, tidakkah ia mendapat malu selama tujuh hari? Biarlah dia selama tujuh hari dikucilkan ke luar tempat perkemahan, kemudian bolehlah ia diterima kembali."
15 Miriam was shut up outside of the camp seven days, and the people did not travel until Miriam was brought in again.
Jadi dikucilkanlah Miryam ke luar tempat perkemahan tujuh hari lamanya, dan bangsa itu tidak berangkat sebelum Miryam diterima kembali.
16 Afterward the people traveled from Hazeroth, and encamped in the wilderness of Paran.
Kemudian berangkatlah mereka dari Hazerot dan berkemah di padang gurun Paran.
