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;
摩西娶了古實女子為妻。米利暗和亞倫因他所娶的古實女子就毀謗他，說：
2 and they say, “Has YHWH only spoken by Moses? Has he not also spoken by us?” And YHWH hears.
「難道耶和華單與摩西說話，不也與我們說話嗎？」這話耶和華聽見了。（
3 And the man Moses [is] very humble, more than any of the men who [are] on the face of the ground.
摩西為人極其謙和，勝過世上的眾人。）
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.
耶和華忽然對摩西、亞倫、米利暗說：「你們三個人都出來，到會幕這裏。」他們三個人就出來了。
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.
耶和華在雲柱中降臨，站在會幕門口，召亞倫和米利暗，二人就出來了。
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.
耶和華說：「你們且聽我的話：你們中間若有先知，我－耶和華必在異象中向他顯現，在夢中與他說話。
7 Not so My servant Moses; He [is] steadfast in all My house.
我的僕人摩西不是這樣；他是在我全家盡忠的。
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?”
我要與他面對面說話，乃是明說，不用謎語，並且他必見我的形像。你們毀謗我的僕人摩西，為何不懼怕呢？」
9 And the anger of YHWH burns against them, and He goes on,
耶和華就向他們二人發怒而去。
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!
雲彩從會幕上挪開了，不料，米利暗長了大痲瘋，有雪那樣白。亞倫一看米利暗長了大痲瘋，
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;
就對摩西說：「我主啊，求你不要因我們愚昧犯罪，便將這罪加在我們身上。
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.”
求你不要使她像那出母腹、肉已半爛的死胎。」
13 And Moses cries to YHWH, saying, “O God, please give healing to her! Please!”
於是摩西哀求耶和華說：「上帝啊，求你醫治她！」
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.”
耶和華對摩西說：「她父親若吐唾沫在她臉上，她豈不蒙羞七天嗎？現在要把她在營外關鎖七天，然後才可以領她進來。」
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;
於是米利暗關鎖在營外七天。百姓沒有行路，直等到把米利暗領進來。
16 and afterward the people have journeyed from Hazeroth, and they encamp in the wilderness of Paran.
以後百姓從哈洗錄起行，在巴蘭的曠野安營。
