< Numbers 12 >

1 And Mariam and Aaron spoke against Moses, because of the Ethiopian woman whom Moses took; for he had taken an Ethiopian woman.
Nao Miriamu na Harũni magĩtetia Musa, nĩ ũndũ wa mũtumia wake Mũkushi, nĩgũkorwo Musa nĩ ahikĩtie Mũkushi.
2 And they said, Has the Lord spoken to Moses only? has he not also spoken to us? and the Lord heard it.
Ningĩ nao mooragia atĩrĩ, “Anga Jehova angĩaria o na Musa wiki? Githĩ o na ithuĩ to atwarĩrie?” Nake Jehova akĩigua ndeto icio.
3 And the man Moses was very meek beyond all the men that were upon the earth.
(Na rĩrĩ, Musa aarĩ mũndũ mwĩnyiihia mũno, mwĩnyiihia gũkĩra andũ arĩa angĩ othe gũkũ thĩ).
4 And the Lord said immediately to Moses and Aaron and Mariam, Come forth all three of you to the tabernacle of witness.
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 three came forth to the tabernacle of witness; and the Lord descended in a pillar of a cloud, and stood at the door of the tabernacle of witness; and Aaron and Mariam were called; and both came forth.
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 to them, Hear my words: If there should be of you a prophet to the Lord, I will be made known to him in a vision, and in sleep will I speak to him.
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 faithful in all my house.
No ha ũhoro wa Musa ndungata yakwa ndiĩkaga ũguo; we nĩ mwĩhokeku thĩinĩ wa nyũmba yakwa yothe.
8 I will speak to him mouth to mouth apparently, and not in dark speeches; and he has seen the glory of the Lord; and why were you not afraid to speak 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 the great anger of the Lord [was] upon them, and he departed.
Nake Jehova agĩcinwo nĩ marakara nĩ ũndũ wao, agĩthiĩ akĩmatiga.
10 And the cloud departed from the tabernacle; and, behold, Mariam was leprous, [white] as snow; and Aaron looked upon Mariam, and, behold, she [was] leprous.
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 And Aaron said to Moses, I beseech you, my lord, do not lay sin upon us, for we were ignorant wherein we sinned.
nake akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Ndagũthaitha, mwathi wakwa, ndũgatũrũithĩrie wĩhia ũcio twĩkĩte na ũrimũ.
12 Let her not be as it were like death, as an abortion coming out of his mother's womb, when [the disease] devours the half of the flesh.
Ndũkareke ahaane ta kĩhuno kiumĩte nda ya nyina mwĩrĩ wakĩo ũbuthĩte mwena ũmwe.”
13 And Moses cried to the Lord, saying, O God, I beseech you, heal her.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Musa agĩkaĩra Jehova, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Wee Ngai, ndagũthaitha, mũhonie!”
14 And the Lord said to Moses, If her father had only spit in her face, would she not be ashamed seven days? let her be set apart seven days without the camp, and afterwards she shall come in.
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 And Mariam was separated without the camp seven days; and the people moved not forward till Mariam was cleansed.
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 And afterwards the people set forth from Aseroth, and encamped in the wilderness of Pharan.
Thuutha ũcio, andũ acio a Isiraeli makiuma Hazerothu magĩthiĩ makĩamba hema ciao Werũ-inĩ wa Parani.
