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;
Pea naʻe lea fakamamahi ʻa Miliame mo ʻElone kia Mōsese, koeʻuhi ko e fefine ʻItiopea naʻa na fakamaʻu: he naʻa ne fakamaʻu mo e fefine ʻItiopea.
2 and they say, “Has YHWH only spoken by Moses? Has he not also spoken by us?” And YHWH hears.
Pea naʻa na pehē, “He kuo folofola ʻa Sihova ʻia Mōsese pe? Ka kuo ʻikai folofola foki ia ʻiate kimaua?” Pea naʻe fanongo ki ai ʻa Sihova.
3 And the man Moses [is] very humble, more than any of the men who [are] on the face of the ground.
(Pea ko eni, ko e tangata ko Mōsese naʻe angavaivai ia, ʻo lahi hake ʻi he kau tangata kotoa pē naʻe ʻi he funga ʻo māmani.)
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.
Pea naʻe folofola fakafokifā ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, pea mo ʻElone, pea mo Miliame, “Mou haʻu ʻakimoutolu ko e toko tolu ki he fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai.” Pea naʻe ʻalu atu ʻae toko tolu ko ia.
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.
Pea naʻe hāʻele hifo ʻa Sihova ʻi he pou ʻoe ʻao, ʻo ne tuʻu ʻi he matapā ʻoe fale fehikitaki, pea naʻa ne ui ia kia ʻElone mo Miliame: pea naʻa na ʻomi kituʻa fakatouʻosi.
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.
Pea naʻa ne pehē, “Mo fanongo eni ki heʻeku lea: Kapau ʻoku ʻiate kimoutolu ha taha ʻoku kikite, Ko au ko Sihova te u, fakahā au kiate ia ʻi he meʻa hā mai, pe te u lea kiate ia ʻi he misi.
7 Not so My servant Moses; He [is] steadfast in all My house.
Ka ʻoku taha kehe ʻa Mōsese ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki: ʻoku angatonu ia ʻi hoku fale kotoa pē.
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?”
Te ma lea fakataha mo ia mo ngutu taha, ʻi he fakahā, kae ʻikai ʻi he lea heliaki; pea ʻe mamata ia ki he hā mai ʻo Sihova: pea ko ia, ko e hā ʻoku ʻikai te mo manavahē ai ke lea fakamamahi ki heʻeku tamaioʻeiki ko Mōsese?”
9 And the anger of YHWH burns against them, and He goes on,
Pea naʻe vela ʻae houhau ʻo Sihova kiate kinaua; pea naʻe hāʻele atu ia.
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!
Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻae ʻao mei he fale fehikitaki, pea vakai, naʻe hoko ʻa Miliame ko e kilia hina ʻo hangē ko e ʻuha hinehina: pea naʻe sio ʻa ʻElone kia Miliame, pea vakai kuo kilia ia.
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;
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻElone kia Mōsese, “ʻOiauē, ʻeku ʻeiki, ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, ʻoua naʻa tuku ʻae angahala kiate kimaua ʻaia kuo ma fai vale ai, pea mo ia ʻoku ma angahala ai.
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.”
ʻOua naʻa tuku ia ke ne hangē ko e tokotaha kuo mate, pe ha taha kuo popo hono kakano ʻi heʻene haʻu mei he fatu ʻo ʻene faʻē.”
13 And Moses cries to YHWH, saying, “O God, please give healing to her! Please!”
Pea naʻe tangi ʻa Mōsese kia Sihova, ʻo pehē, “ʻE ʻOtua ʻoku ou kole ki hoʻo ʻafio, ke ke fakamoʻui leva ia.”
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.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kia Mōsese, “Kapau ne kuo ʻaʻanu ʻa ʻene tamai ki hono mata ʻikai ʻe ma ia he ʻaho ʻe fitu? Tuku ke tāpuni kiate ia ʻae ʻapitanga, ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fitu, pea ka hili ia, tuku ke toe haʻu ia ki ai.”
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;
Pea naʻe kapusi ʻa Miliame mei he ʻapitanga, ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fitu: pea naʻe ʻikai kei fononga ʻae kakai kaeʻoua ke toe ʻomi ʻa Miliame.
16 and afterward the people have journeyed from Hazeroth, and they encamp in the wilderness of Paran.
Pea hili ia naʻe hiki ʻae kakai mei Heseloti, ʻonau nofo ʻi he toafa ʻo Palani.
