< Numbers 12 >

1 And Miriam and Aaron spoke against Moses because of the Cushite woman whom he had married; for he had married a Cushite woman.
摩西娶了古实女子为妻。米利暗和亚伦因他所娶的古实女子就毁谤他,说:
2 And they said: 'Hath the LORD indeed spoken only with Moses? hath He not spoken also with us?' And the LORD heard it. —
“难道耶和华单与摩西说话,不也与我们说话吗?”这话耶和华听见了。
3 Now the man Moses was very meek, above all the men that were upon the face of the earth. —
摩西为人极其谦和,胜过世上的众人。
4 And the LORD spoke suddenly unto Moses, and unto Aaron, and unto Miriam: 'Come out ye three unto the tent of meeting.' And they three came out.
耶和华忽然对摩西、亚伦、米利暗说:“你们三个人都出来,到会幕这里。”他们三个人就出来了。
5 And 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 forth.
耶和华在云柱中降临,站在会幕门口,召亚伦和米利暗,二人就出来了。
6 And He said: 'Hear now My words: if there be a prophet among you, I the LORD do make Myself known unto him in a vision, I do speak with him in a dream.
耶和华说:“你们且听我的话:你们中间若有先知,我—耶和华必在异象中向他显现,在梦中与他说话。
7 My servant Moses is not so; he is trusted in all My house;
我的仆人摩西不是这样;他是在我全家尽忠的。
8 with him do I speak mouth to mouth, even manifestly, and not in dark speeches; and the similitude of the LORD doth he behold; wherefore then were ye not afraid to speak against My servant, against Moses?'
我要与他面对面说话,乃是明说,不用谜语,并且他必见我的形象。你们毁谤我的仆人摩西,为何不惧怕呢?”
9 And the anger of the LORD was kindled against them; and He departed.
耶和华就向他们二人发怒而去。
10 And when the cloud was removed from over the Tent, behold, Miriam was leprous, as white as snow; and Aaron looked upon Miriam; and, behold, she was leprous.
云彩从会幕上挪开了,不料,米利暗长了大麻风,有雪那样白。亚伦一看米利暗长了大麻风,
11 And Aaron said unto Moses: 'Oh my lord, lay not, I pray thee, sin upon us, for that we have done foolishly, and for that we have sinned.
就对摩西说:“我主啊,求你不要因我们愚昧犯罪,便将这罪加在我们身上。
12 Let her not, I pray, be as one dead, of whom the flesh is half consumed when he cometh out of his mother's womb.'
求你不要使她像那出母腹、肉已半烂的死胎。”
13 And Moses cried unto the LORD, saying: 'Heal her now, O God, I beseech Thee.'
于是摩西哀求耶和华说:“神啊,求你医治她!”
14 And the LORD said unto Moses: 'If her father had but spit in her face, should she not hide in shame seven days? let her be shut up without the camp seven days, and after that she shall be brought in again.'
耶和华对摩西说:“她父亲若吐唾沫在她脸上,她岂不蒙羞七天吗?现在要把她在营外关锁七天,然后才可以领她进来。”
15 And Miriam was shut up without the camp seven days; and the people journeyed not till Miriam was brought in again.
于是米利暗关锁在营外七天。百姓没有行路,直等到把米利暗领进来。
16 And afterward the people journeyed from Hazeroth, and pitched in the wilderness of Paran.
以后百姓从哈洗录起行,在巴兰的旷野安营。
