< Numbers 12 >

1 And Miriam and Aaron spake against Moses, on account of the Cushite woman whom he had taken, —for, a Cushite woman, had he taken.
Miriam ne Aaron kasa tiaa Mose sɛ ne yere yɛ Etiopiani.
2 And they said: Is it only and solely with Moses, that Yahweh hath spoken? With us also, hath he not spoken? And Yahweh heard it.
Wɔkae se, “Mose nko ara na Awurade akasa afa ne so ana? Na yɛn nso ɔnkasa mfa yɛn so bi ana?” Na Awurade tee wɔn anwiinwii no.
3 Now, the man Moses, was patient, exceedingly, —above all the sons of earth, who were on the face of the ground.
Na Mose yɛ ɔhobrɛaseni sen obiara a ɔte asase yi so.
4 Then said Yahweh suddenly, unto Moses, and unto Aaron, and unto Miriam, Come out ye three unto the tent of meeting. And they three went out.
Ntɛm so, Awurade frɛɛ Mose, Aaron ne Miriam kɔɔ Ahyiae Ntamadan no mu. Ɔhyɛɛ wɔn se, “Mo baasa no mommra Ahyiae Ntamadan mu ha.” Enti wobegyinagyinaa Awurade anim.
5 Then Yahweh came down in a pillar of cloud, and stood at the entrance of the tent, —and called Aaron and Miriam, and they both went forth.
Afei, Awurade nam omununkum fadum mu sian ba begyinaa Ahyiae Ntamadan no kwan ano, na ɔfrɛɛ Aaron ne Miriam. Bere a wotwiw kɔɔ wɔn anim no,
6 Then said he Hear, I beseech you my words. When ye have your prophet, As Yahweh in a vision, will I make myself known, unto him; In a dream, will I speak with him.
ɔkae se, “Muntie me nsɛm: “Sɛ odiyifo wɔ mo mu a, Me, Awurade, menam anisoadehu so da me ho adi kyerɛ no, me kasa kyerɛ no wɔ dae mu.
7 Not so, my servant Moses, —In all my house, trusty, is he:
Nanso ɛnte saa wɔ me somfo Mose ho. Me fi nyinaa mu no, ɔyɛ ɔnokwafo.
8 Mouth to mouth, do I speak with him And plainly—not in dark sayings, And the form of Yahweh, doth he discern, —Wherefore then, were ye not afraid to speak against my servant—against Moses?
Me ne no kasa anim ne anim, kasa a emu da hɔ na ɛnyɛ abisae mu. Na ohu Awurade sɛnea ɔte. Adɛn nti na moansuro sɛ mobɛkasa atia me somfo Mose?”
9 And the anger of Yahweh kindled upon them and he departed.
Awurade bo fuw wɔn dennen pa ara na ofii hɔ kɔe.
10 And, when, the cloud, removed from off the tent, —lo! Miriam, leprous, like snow! And Aaron turned unto Miriam and lo! …leprous!
Bere a omununkum no fii Ahyiae Ntamadan no atifi no, kwata beduruu Miriam ho fitaa sɛ sukyerɛmma. Aaron twaa nʼani huu sɛ ɔwɔ ɔhonam ani yare a ɛyɛ fi no,
11 Then said Aaron unto Moses, —Oh my lord, do not I beseech thee lay upon us sin, although we have made ourselves foolish, and although we have sinned.
ɔka kyerɛɛ Mose se, “Me wura, mesrɛ wo, nnyina saa bɔne a yɛnam nkwaseasɛm so adi yi so ntwe yɛn aso.
12 Let her not, I beseech thee, remain like the still-born, —which when it is born of its mother, the half of its flesh is consumed.
Mma no nyɛ sɛ akokoaa a wawu wɔ ne yam a ne fa aporɔw.”
13 Then Moses made outcry unto Yahweh, saying, —O GOD, I beseech thee grant healing. I beseech thee unto her.
Na Mose teɛɛ mu frɛɛ Awurade se, “Onyankopɔn, mesrɛ wo sɛ sa no yare!”
14 And Yahweh said unto Moses: If, her own father, had, but spat, in her face, would she not, have acknowledged the shame for seven days? Let her shut herself up for seven days, outside the camp, and afterwards, let her be received back.
Awurade buaa Mose se, “Sɛ nʼagya tew ntasu guu nʼanim a, anka nʼanim rengu ase nnanson? Munyi no mfi atenae ha nkɔhyɛ baabi nnanson na akyiri no, obetumi asan aba.”
15 So Miriam shut herself up, outside the camp, for seven days, —and, the people, set not forward, until Miriam had been received back.
Enti wotwaa Miriam asu fii atenae hɔ ma okodii nnanson. Nnipa no twɛn kosii sɛ wɔsan de no bae ansa na wɔretu kwan no bio.
16 Then afterwards, did the people set forward from Hazeroth, and encamped in the desert of Paran.
Ɛno akyi no, wofii Haserot bɛbɔɔ atenae wɔ Paran sare so.
