Numbers 12
1 Miriam and Aaron were critical of Moses because of his Ethiopian wife—he'd married an Ethiopian woman.
Miriamu naAroni vakatanga kupopotera Mozisi nokuda kwomukadzi wake aiva muEtiopia, nokuti akanga awana muEtiopia.
2 “Is it only through Moses that the Lord speaks?” they asked. “Doesn't he speak through us too?” The Lord heard all this.
“Ko, Jehovha akangotaura naMozisi oga here? Ko, haana kutaura kubudikidza nesuwo here?” Uye Jehovha akazvinzwa.
3 Moses was a very humble man, more than anyone else on earth.
Zvino Mozisi akanga ari munhu akazvininipisa kwazvo, akazvininipisa kupfuura ani zvake pamusoro penyika.
4 All of a sudden the Lord called for Moses, Aaron, and Miriam, telling them, “The three of you, come to the Tent of Meeting.” The three of them did so.
Pakarepo Jehovha akati kuna Mozisi, Aroni naMiriamu, “Budai muuye kuTende Rokusangana, mose muri vatatu.” Saka vakabuda ivo vari vatatu.
5 The Lord came down in a pillar of cloud and stood in the entrance to the Tent. He called Aaron and Miriam and they came forward.
Ipapo Jehovha akaburuka ari mushongwe yegore; akamira pamukova wokupinda kuTende akadana Aroni naMiriamu. Vakati vachibuda vari vaviri,
6 “Now listen to my words, he told them. If you had prophets, I the Lord would reveal myself to them in visions; I would communicate with them in dreams.
akati kwavari, “Teererai mashoko angu: “Kana pano muprofita pakati penyu, ndinozviratidza kwaari nezviratidzo, ndinotaura naye muzviratidzo, ndinotaura naye muzviroto.
7 But it's not like this with my servant Moses, who of all my people is the one who is faithful.
Asi hazvina kudaro kuna Mozisi muranda wangu; iye akatendeka muimba yangu yose.
8 I talk to him personally, face to face. I speak plainly, not in riddles. He sees the likeness of the Lord. So why weren't you afraid when you criticized my servant Moses?”
Ndinotaura naye takatarisana, pachena kwete nezvirahwe; iye anoona chimiro chaJehovha. Zvino makarega seiko kutya kutaura muchipopotera muranda wangu Mozisi?”
9 The Lord was angry with them, and he left.
Kutsamwa kwaJehovha kwakapfuta pamusoro pavo, uye akavasiya.
10 As the cloud rose above the Tent, Miriam's skin suddenly turned white with leprosy. Aaron turned to look and saw that she had leprosy.
Gore rakati rabva pamusoro peTende, onei Miriamu amirepo ava namaperembudzi, akachena sechando. Aroni akatendeukira kwaari akaona kuti akanga ava namaperembudzi.
11 He said to Moses, “My lord, please don't punish us for this sin that we've so stupidly committed.
Ipapo akati kuna Mozisi, “Ndapota, ishe wangu, regai kuisa pamusoro pedu chivi chataita noupenzi.
12 Please don't let her become like a stillborn baby whose flesh is already decaying when they're born!”
Musarega achifanana nomwana akazvarwa akafa mudumbu ramai vake hafu yenyama yake yakadyiwa.”
13 Moses called out to the Lord, “God, please heal her!”
Saka Mozisi akachema kuna Jehovha akati, “Haiwa Mwari, ndapota hangu muporesei!”
14 But the Lord replied to Moses, “If her father had spit in her face wouldn't she have been disgraced for seven days? Keep her in isolation outside the camp for seven days, and then she can be taken back in.”
Jehovha akapindura Mozisi achiti, “Dai baba vake vanga vamupfira kumeso kwake, haazainyara kwamazuva manomwe here? Mubudise kunze kwomusasa kwamazuva manomwe; mugomudzosa henyu pashure.”
15 Miriam was kept in isolation outside the camp for seven days, and the people did not move on until she was taken back in.
Saka Miriamu akabudiswa kunze kwomusasa kwamazuva manomwe, uye vanhu havana kupfuurira mberi kusvikira adzoswa.
16 Then the people left Hazeroth and set up camp in the Desert of Paran.
Shure kwaizvozvo, vanhu vakabva paHazeroti vakandodzika musasa muRenje reParani.
