< Numbers 12 >

1 Now Miriam and Aaron said evil against Moses, because of the Cushite woman to whom he was married, for he had taken a Cushite woman as his wife.
Nao Miriamu na Harũni magĩtetia Musa, nĩ ũndũ wa mũtumia wake Mũkushi, nĩgũkorwo Musa nĩ ahikĩtie Mũkushi.
2 And they said, Have the words of the Lord been given to Moses only? have they not come to us? And the Lord took note of it.
Ningĩ nao mooragia atĩrĩ, “Anga Jehova angĩaria o na Musa wiki? Githĩ o na ithuĩ to atwarĩrie?” Nake Jehova akĩigua ndeto icio.
3 Now the man Moses was more gentle than any other man on earth.
(Na rĩrĩ, Musa aarĩ mũndũ mwĩnyiihia mũno, mwĩnyiihia gũkĩra andũ arĩa angĩ othe gũkũ thĩ).
4 And suddenly the Lord said to Moses and Aaron and Miriam, Come out, you three, to the Tent of meeting. And the three of them went out.
O rĩmwe Jehova akĩĩra Musa na Harũni na Miriamu atĩrĩ, “Inyuĩ atatũ umai mũũke Hema-inĩ ĩyo-ya-Gũtũnganwo.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio othe atatũ makiuma magĩthiĩ ho.
5 And the Lord came down in a pillar of cloud, taking his place at the door of the Tent, and made Aaron and Miriam come before him.
Ningĩ Jehova agĩikũrũka arĩ thĩinĩ wa gĩtugĩ gĩa itu, akĩrũgama itoonyero-inĩ rĩa Hema ĩyo, na agĩĩta Harũni na Miriamu. Na eerĩ magĩthiathia harĩ we,
6 And he said, Now give ear to my words: if there is a prophet among you I will give him knowledge of myself in a vision and will let my words come to him in a dream.
nake akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Thikĩrĩriai ciugo ciakwa: “Rĩrĩa mũnabii wa Jehova arĩ gatagatĩ-inĩ kanyu-rĩ, niĩ nĩndĩĩmwĩguũragĩria na cioneki, na ngamwarĩria na irooto.
7 My servant Moses is not so; he is true to me in all my house:
No ha ũhoro wa Musa ndungata yakwa ndiĩkaga ũguo; we nĩ mwĩhokeku thĩinĩ wa nyũmba yakwa yothe.
8 With him I will have talk mouth to mouth, openly and not in dark sayings; and with his eyes he will see the form of the Lord: why then had you no fear of saying evil against my servant Moses?
Musa-rĩ, twaranagĩria nake ũthiũ kwa ũthiũ, tũkaaranĩria ũhoro mũtaũku, na ndimwaragĩria na thimo; na nĩwe wonaga ũrĩa Jehova atariĩ. Nĩ kĩĩ kĩgiririe mwĩtigĩre gũtetia Musa ndungata yakwa?”
9 And burning with wrath against them, the Lord went away.
Nake Jehova agĩcinwo nĩ marakara nĩ ũndũ wao, agĩthiĩ akĩmatiga.
10 And the cloud was moved from over the Tent; and straight away Miriam became a leper, as white as snow: and Aaron, looking at Miriam, saw that she was a leper.
Rĩrĩa itu rĩu rĩeherire igũrũ rĩa Hema ĩyo, Miriamu agĩkorwo aarũgamĩte o ro hau, arĩ na mangũ, akerũha o ta ira. Nake Harũni ehũgũra akĩona atĩ Miriamu aarĩ na mangũ;
11 Then Aaron said to Moses, O my lord, let not our sin be on our heads, for we have done foolishly and are sinners.
nake akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Ndagũthaitha, mwathi wakwa, ndũgatũrũithĩrie wĩhia ũcio twĩkĩte na ũrimũ.
12 Let her not be as one dead, whose flesh is half wasted when he comes out from the body of his mother.
Ndũkareke ahaane ta kĩhuno kiumĩte nda ya nyina mwĩrĩ wakĩo ũbuthĩte mwena ũmwe.”
13 And Moses, crying to the Lord, said, Let my prayer come before you, O God, and make her well.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Musa agĩkaĩra Jehova, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Wee Ngai, ndagũthaitha, mũhonie!”
14 And the Lord said to Moses, If her father had put a mark of shame on her, would she not be shamed for seven days? Let her be shut up outside the tent-circle for seven days, and after that she may come in again.
Nake Jehova agĩcookeria Musa, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Korwo ithe nĩamũtuĩrĩire mata ũthiũ-rĩ, githĩ ndangĩaikarire na thoni matukũ mũgwanja? Mũhingĩrĩriei na kũu nja ya kambĩ matukũ mũgwanja; na thuutha ũcio no acookio kambĩ.”
15 So Miriam was shut up outside the tent-circle for seven days: and the people did not go forward on their journey till Miriam had come in again.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Miriamu akĩhingĩrĩrio na kũu nja ya kambĩ ĩyo matukũ mũgwanja, nao andũ acio angĩ matiathiire na mbere na rũgendo nginya rĩrĩa Miriamu aacookirio kambĩ.
16 After that, the people went on from Hazeroth and put up their tents in the waste land of Paran.
Thuutha ũcio, andũ acio a Isiraeli makiuma Hazerothu magĩthiĩ makĩamba hema ciao Werũ-inĩ wa Parani.
