< Numbers 12 >
1 Then Miriam and Aaron criticized Moses because of the Cushite woman he had married, for he had taken a Cushite wife.
Pagkatapos, nagsalita sina Miriam at Aaron laban kay Moises dahil sa isang babaeng taga-Cus na napangasawa niya.
2 “Does the LORD speak only through Moses?” they said. “Does He not also speak through us?” And the LORD heard this.
Sinabi nila, “Kay Moises lamang ba nagsalita si Yahweh? Hindi rin ba siya nagsalita sa amin?” Ngayon narinig ni Yahweh kung ano ang kanilang sinabi.
3 Now Moses was a very humble man, more so than any man on the face of the earth.
Ngayon ang lalaking si Moises ay lubos na mapagpakumbaba, higit pa sa sinuman sa mundo.
4 And suddenly the LORD said to Moses, Aaron, and Miriam, “You three, come out to the Tent of Meeting.” So the three went out,
Agad-agad nagsalita si Yahweh kay Moises, Aaron at Miriam: “Lumabas kayong tatlo, sa tolda ng pagpupulong.” Kaya lumabas silang tatlo.
5 and the LORD came down in a pillar of cloud, stood at the entrance to the Tent, and summoned Aaron and Miriam. When both of them had stepped forward,
Pagkatapos, bumaba si Yahweh sa isang haligi ng ulap. Tumayo siya sa pasukan ng tolda at tinawag sina Aaron at Miriam. Kapwa sila lumapit.
6 He said, “Hear now My words: If there is a prophet among you, I, the LORD, will reveal Myself to him in a vision; I will speak to him in a dream.
Sinabi ni Yahweh, “Ngayon makinig kayo sa aking mga salita. Kapag kasama ninyo ang aking propeta, inihahayag ko ang aking sarili sa kaniya sa mga pangitain at nagsasalita ako sa kaniya sa mga panaginip.
7 But this is not so with My servant Moses; he is faithful in all My house.
Hindi ganyan ang aking lingkod na si Moises. Matapat siya sa lahat ng aking sambahayan.
8 I speak with him face to face, clearly and not in riddles; he sees the form of the LORD. Why then were you unafraid to speak against My servant Moses?”
Tuwiran akong nagsasalita kay Moises, hindi sa pamamagitan ng mga pangitain o mga bugtong. Nakikita niya ang aking anyo. Kaya bakit hindi kayo takot na magsalita laban sa aking lingkod, laban kay Moises?”
9 So the anger of the LORD burned against them, and He departed.
Nag-alab ang galit ni Yahweh laban sa kanila at iniwan niya sila.
10 As the cloud lifted from above the Tent, suddenly Miriam became leprous, white as snow. Aaron turned toward her, saw that she was leprous,
Pumaitaas ang ulap mula sa ibabaw ng tolda, at biglang naging ketongin si Miriam—pumuti siya kagaya ng niyebe. Nang lumingon si Aaron kay Miriam, nakita niya na nagkaroon siya ng ketong.
11 and said to Moses, “My lord, please do not hold against us this sin we have so foolishly committed.
Sinabi ni Aaron kay Moises, “Oh aking panginoon, pakiusap, huwag mong ipataw ang kasalanang ito laban sa amin. Nagsalita kami nang may kahangalan, at nagkasala kami.
12 Please do not let her be like a stillborn infant whose flesh is half consumed when he comes out of his mother’s womb.”
Pakiusap huwag siyang hayaang matulad sa isang patay na bagong silang na naubos ang kalahati ng laman nang lumabas mula sa sinapupunan ng kaniyang ina.”
13 So Moses cried out to the LORD, “O God, please heal her!”
Kaya tumawag si Moises kay Yahweh. Sinabi niya, “Pakiusap pagalingin mo siya, oh Diyos, pakiusap.”
14 But the LORD answered Moses, “If her father had but spit in her face, would she not have been in disgrace for seven days? Let her be confined outside the camp for seven days; after that she may be brought back in.”
Sinabi ni Yahweh kay Moises, “Kung duraan ng kaniyang ama ang kaniyang mukha, mapapahiya siya sa loob ng pitong araw. Huwag ninyo siyang papasukin sa kampo sa loob ng pitong araw. Pagkatapos nito, papasukin siyang muli.”
15 So Miriam was confined outside the camp for seven days, and the people did not move on until she was brought in again.
Kaya pinanatili si Miriam sa labas ng kampo sa loob ng pitong araw. Hindi naglakbay ang mga tao hanggang sa makabalik siya sa kampo.
16 After that, the people set out from Hazeroth and camped in the Wilderness of Paran.
Pagkatapos nito, naglakbay ang mga tao mula Hazerot at nagkampo sa ilang ng Paran.
