Numbers 12
1 And Miriam speaks—Aaron also—against Moses concerning the circumstance of the Cushite woman whom he had taken, for he had taken a Cushite woman;
米黎盎和亞郎為了梅瑟所娶的雇士女人出言反對梅瑟，因為他娶了個雇士女人，
2 and they say, “Has YHWH only spoken by Moses? Has he not also spoken by us?” And YHWH hears.
於是說：「上主豈只與梅瑟交談，不是也與我們交談過! 」上主聽見了這話。
3 And the man Moses [is] very humble, more than any of the men who [are] on the face of the ground.
梅瑟為人十分謙和，超過地上所有的人。
4 And YHWH suddenly says to Moses, and to Aaron, and to Miriam, “Come out, you three, to the Tent of Meeting”; and those three come out.
上主忽然向梅瑟、亞郎和米黎盎說：「你們三人到會幕那裏去。」他們三人就去了。
5 And YHWH comes down in the pillar of the cloud, and stands at the opening of the tent, and calls Aaron and Miriam, and both of them come out.
上主乘雲柱降下，停在會幕門口，叫亞郎和米黎盎；他們兩人就走向前去，
6 And He says, “Now hear My words: If your prophet is of YHWH, I make Myself known to him in a vision; I speak with him in a dream.
上主說：「你們聽我說：若你們中有一位是先知，我要在神視中顯示給他，在夢中與他談話；
7 Not so My servant Moses; He [is] steadfast in all My house.
但對我的僕人梅瑟卻不是這樣，他在我全家中是最忠信可靠的。
8 I speak with him mouth to mouth, Even [by] an appearance, and not in riddles; And he beholds the form of YHWH attentively. Now why have you not been afraid To speak against My servant—against Moses?”
我面對面與他明明說話，不藉謎語，並讓他望見上主的形像。為什麼你們竟不怕出言反對我的僕人梅瑟﹖」
9 And the anger of YHWH burns against them, and He goes on,
上主對他們發著怒走了。
10 and the cloud has turned aside from off the tent, and behold, Miriam [is] leprous as snow; and Aaron turns to Miriam, and behold, leprous!
彩雲一離開會幕，看，米黎盎就生了癩病，像雪那樣白；亞郎轉身看見米黎盎生了癩病，
11 And Aaron says to Moses, “O my lord, please do not lay [this] sin on us [in] which we have been foolish, and [in] which we have sinned;
遂對梅瑟說：「我主，懇求你，別使我們因一時愚昧所犯之罪而受罰!
12 please do not let her be as [one] dead, when in his coming out from the womb of his mother—the half of his flesh is consumed.”
求你別讓她像個胎死腹中的人，一出娘胎，肉身就已腐爛了一半。」
13 And Moses cries to YHWH, saying, “O God, please give healing to her! Please!”
梅瑟遂向上主呼求說：「天主，我求你治好她罷! 」
14 And YHWH says to Moses, “But [if] her father had but spat in her face—is she not ashamed [for] seven days? She is shut out [for] seven days at the outside of the camp, and afterward she is gathered.”
上主對梅瑟說：「若她的父親在她面上吐唾沫，她豈不要七天忍此羞辱，七天把她隔離在營外，然後才讓她回來﹖」
15 And Miriam is shut out at the outside of the camp [for] seven days, and the people have not journeyed until Miriam is gathered;
於是米黎盎七天之久，被隔離在營外；民眾也沒有起程，直到米黎盎回來。
16 and afterward the people have journeyed from Hazeroth, and they encamp in the wilderness of Paran.
以後，民眾由哈茲洛特起程出發，在帕蘭曠野紮了營。
