Numbers 12
1 And Mary and Aaron spoke against Moses, because of his wife the Ethiopian,
Musa telah mengambil seorang wanita Kus menjadi istrinya, dan hal itu dijadikan alasan oleh Miryam dan Harun untuk mencela Musa.
2 And they said: Hath the Lord spoken by Moses only? hath he not also spoken to us in like manner? And when the Lord heard this,
Kata mereka, "Apakah melalui Musa saja TUHAN berbicara? Bukankah melalui kita juga Ia berbicara?" TUHAN mendengar apa yang mereka katakan.
3 (For Moses was a man exceeding meek above all men that dwelt upon earth)
Musa adalah orang yang sangat rendah hati, melebihi semua orang yang hidup di bumi ini.
4 Immediately he spoke to him, and to Aaron and Mary: Come out you three only to the tabernacle of the covenant. And when they were come out,
Tiba-tiba TUHAN berkata kepada Musa, Harun dan Miryam, "Kamu bertiga pergilah ke Kemah-Ku." Lalu mereka pergi ke situ
5 The Lord came down in a pillar of the cloud, and stood in the entry of the tabernacle calling to Aaron and Mary. And when they were come,
dan TUHAN turun dalam tiang awan. TUHAN berdiri di pintu Kemah-Nya dan memanggil Harun serta Miryam. Kedua orang itu maju,
6 He said to them: Hear my words: if there be among you a prophet of the Lord, I will appear to him in a vision, or I will speak to him in a dream.
dan TUHAN berkata, "Dengarlah kata-kata-Ku ini! Jika di antara kamu ada seorang nabi, Aku menyatakan diri-Ku kepadanya dalam penglihatan-pengl dan berbicara dengan dia dalam mimpi.
7 But it is not so with my servant Moses a who is most faithful in all my house:
Tetapi tidak begitu dengan hamba-Ku Musa. Dialah orang yang setia di antara umat-Ku.
8 For I speak to him mouth to mouth: and plainly, and not by riddles and figures doth he see the Lord. Why then were you not afraid to speak ill of my servant Moses?
Dan Aku berbicara dengan dia berhadapan muka, secara jelas dan tidak dengan teka-teki. Bahkan rupa-Ku pun sudah dilihatnya! Mengapa kamu berani melawan Musa, hamba-Ku itu?"
9 And being angry with them he went away:
TUHAN marah sekali kepada mereka berdua, dan Ia pergi.
10 The cloud also that was over the tabernacle departed: and behold Mary appeared white as snow with a leprosy. And when Aaron had looked on her, and saw her all covered with leprosy,
Ketika awan itu meninggalkan Kemah TUHAN, tampaklah Miryam kena penyakit kulit yang berbahaya; kulitnya putih seperti kapas. Ketika Harun berpaling kepada Miryam dan melihat bahwa ia sudah kena penyakit itu,
11 He said to Moses: I beseech thee, my lord, lay not upon us this sin, which we have foolishly committed:
berkatalah ia kepada Musa, "Tolonglah, Tuanku, jangan biarkan kami disiksa karena dosa yang kami buat dalam kebodohan kami.
12 Let her not be as one dead, and as an abortive that is cast forth from the mother’s womb. Lo, now one half of her flesh is consumed with the leprosy.
Jangan biarkan dia menjadi seperti bayi yang lahir sudah mati, dengan dagingnya setengah busuk."
13 And Moses cried to the Lord, saying: O God, I beseech thee heal her.
Maka berserulah Musa kepada TUHAN, "Ya Allah, saya mohon, sembuhkanlah dia!"
14 And the Lord answered him: If her father had spitten upon her face, ought she not to have been ashamed for seven days at least? Let her be separated seven days without the camp, and after wards she shall be called again.
TUHAN menjawab, "Andaikata mukanya diludahi ayahnya, bukankah selama tujuh hari ia harus menanggung malu? Singkirkanlah dia dari perkemahan selama tujuh hari, dan sesudah itu ia boleh masuk kembali."
15 Mary therefore was put out of the camp seven days: and the people moved not from that place until Mary was called again.
Lalu Miryam dikeluarkan dari perkemahan selama tujuh hari, dan bangsa itu tidak pindah dari situ sampai Miryam diperbolehkan kembali ke perkemahan.
16 And the people marched from Haseroth, and pitched their tents in the desert of Pharan.
Kemudian mereka meninggalkan Hazerot dan berkemah di padang gurun Paran.
