Numbers 12
1 [Moses’/My older sister] Miriam and [his/my older brother] Aaron were saying this: “Is Moses the only one to whom Yahweh has spoken messages to tell to us [RHQ]? Does Yahweh not speak messages to us two also?” [They told people that] they were saying that because Moses/I had married a woman who was a descendant of the Cush people-group, [but they were really saying that because they (were jealous/did not want Moses/me to be the only leader of the Israeli people)]. But Yahweh heard what they were saying.
Og Maria og Aron talede imod Mose for den morlandske Hustrus Skyld, som han havde taget; thi han havde taget en morlandsk Hustru.
Og de sagde: Taler Herren ene og alene ved Mose? mon han ikke ogsaa taler ved os? og Herren hørte det.
3 [The truth was that] Moses/I was very humble. He/I was more humble than anyone else on the earth [and Moses/I had not appointed himself/myself to be their leader].
Men den Mand Mose var saare sagtmodig, fremfor alle Mennesker paa Jorderige.
4 So immediately Yahweh spoke to Moses/me and to Aaron and Miriam. He said, “All three of you must go and stand at the Sacred Tent.” So they/we did that.
Og Herren sagde hastelig til Mose og til Aron og til Maria: Gaar ud, I tre, til Forsamlingens Paulun; og de tre gik ud.
5 Then Yahweh descended to the entrance of the tent in a cloud [that resembled a huge white] pillar. He told Aaron and Miriam to step forward, so they did.
Da kom Herren ned i en Skystøtte og stod i Paulunets Dør; og han kaldte ad Aron og Maria, og de gik begge ud.
6 Then he said to them, “Listen to me! When a prophet is among you, I [usually] reveal myself to him by allowing him to see visions, and I speak to him in dreams.
Og han sagde: Kære, hører mine Ord: Dersom der er en Profet iblandt eder, giver jeg, Herren, mig tilkende for ham i Synet, i Drømmen taler jeg med ham.
7 But that is not the way I speak to my servant Moses. I trust that he will lead my people [well].
Ikke saa med min Tjener Mose; han er tro i mit ganske Hus.
8 So I talk to him face-to-face. I speak to him (clearly/using words that he will understand easily), not using parables. He has even seen what I look like. So you should be afraid to criticize my servant Moses!”
Jeg taler mundtlig med ham og synlig og ikke i mørk Tale, og han beskuer Herrens Lignelse; hvi frygtede I da ikke at tale imod min Tjener, imod Mose?
9 Yahweh was very angry with Miriam and Aaron, and he left.
Og Herrens Vrede optændtes imod dem, og han gik bort.
10 When the cloud rose up from the Sacred Tent, Aaron looked at Miriam, and he saw that her skin was [as white] as snow, because she now had leprosy.
Og Skyen veg bort fra Paulunet, og se, Maria var spedalsk som Sne; og Aron vendte sig til Maria, og se, hun var spedalsk.
11 Aaron said to Moses/me, “My master, please do not punish us for this sin that we have foolishly committed.
Og Aron sagde til Mose: Hør mig dog, min Herre, læg ikke den Synd paa os, i hvilken vi have gjort daarlig, og i hvilken vi have syndet.
12 Do not allow Miriam to be like a baby that is already dead when it is born, whose flesh is already half decayed!”
Kære, lad hende ikke være som en Død, hvis halve Kød, naar han kommer ud af sin Moders Liv, er fortæret.
13 So Moses/I cried out to Yahweh, saying, “God, I plead with you to heal her!”
Da raabte Mose til Herren og sagde: Ak, Gud! helbred hende.
14 But Yahweh replied, “If her father had [rebuked her for doing something wrong by] spitting in her face, she would have been ashamed for seven days. [She should be ashamed because of what she has done]. So send her outside the camp for seven days. Then [she will not have leprosy any more, and] she may return to the camp.”
Og Herren sagde til Mose: Om hendes Fader havde spyttet hende i hendes Ansigt, skulde hun da ikke skamme sig syv Dage? Lad hende blive udelukket fra Lejren syv Dage, og derefter maa hun optages.
15 So they sent her outside the camp for seven days. (The people/We) did not move [to another location] until she returned.
Og Maria blev udelukket fra Lejren syv Dage, og Folket rejste ikke, førend Maria blev optaget.
16 But after [she returned], they/we left Hazeroth and moved [north] in the Paran Desert and set up their/our tents there.
Og derefter rejste Folket fra Hazeroth, og de lejrede sig i Ørken Paran.
