< 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.
Mosese'ma Kusa (Itiopia) kumate a'ma eri'nea zanku huke Miriamuke, Aronikea kehakare hunteke,
2
zanagra anage hu'na'e, Ra Anumzamo'a Mosesenke kegaga hunemifi? Anazankera huno tagri'enena Agra kea huoramigahio? Anage nehakeno Ra Anumzamo antahi'ne.
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].
Mosese'a menina avufga antermino agazone huno mani nera mago'a nagara zamagatereno agrake mani'ne. Magore huno agri kna vahera ama mopafina omani'ne.
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.
Ana'ma hakeno'a ame huno Ra Anumzamo'a Mosesene, Aronine, Miriamunku'enena anage hu'ne, ana maka 3'a nagamota atiramita seli mono nomofo avuga eho. Hige'za ana 3'a naga'mo'za eme atru hu'naze.
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.
Hagi anante Ra Anumzamo'a vimago hampompi eramino seli mono nomofo kasante eme otineno, Aronine, Miriamu kiznigu ke higeke tarega'moke avuga akeno,
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.
anante Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno zanasmi'ne, Menina Nagri nanekea antahi'o. Tamagri amu'nompi mago kasnampa vahe'ma mani'negena Nagra Ra Anumzamo'na ava'nafi efore hunemina, avanagna zampi efore hu'na kea hunemue.
7 But that is not the way I speak to my servant Moses. I trust that he will lead my people [well].
Hagi Nagri eri'za vahe Mosesena anara huontegahue. Nagra antahi nemina hakare eri'za zantera knare huno kva hugahie hu'na Ra Anumzamo'na antahinemue.
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!”
Nagra fronka kea agri'enena osu'na, amate tagipinti kea ohumi ahumi nehu'e. Tanagra nahigeta korora nosuta, Nagri eri'za ne' Mosesena amefiga'a kea nehuta, hu havizana hunenta'e?
9 Yahweh was very angry with Miriam and Aaron, and he left.
Ra Anumzamo'a tusi rimpa nehegeno zamatreno Agra vu'ne.
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.
Ana'ma higeno'a seli mono nomofo agofetuti hampomo atreno vigeno, keana fugo namu Miriamuna re'geno efeke hu'ne. Aroni'a rukrahe huno'ma keana, Miriamuna fugo namure'negeno ke'ne.
11 Aaron said to Moses/me, “My master, please do not punish us for this sin that we have foolishly committed.
Anante Aroni amanage huno Mosesena asmi'ne, ranimoke tusiza hu'na nasunku hue, ama'na kumitera tagrira tazeri haviza osuo, negi vahe kna huta hago kumi hu'no'e.
12 Do not allow Miriam to be like a baby that is already dead when it is born, whose flesh is already half decayed!”
Hagi Miriamu avufga atregeno haviza huno, kase nefria mofavremofo avufgamo knopeneramia knara osino.
13 So Moses/I cried out to Yahweh, saying, “God, I plead with you to heal her!”
Anante Mosese'a zavi neteno ranke huno nunamuna Ra Anumzamofontega huno, muse hugantoanki Miriamuna kri'a eri atrento.
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.”
Hianagi Ra Anumzamo'a Mosesena anage huno ke nona'a hunte'ne, Nefa'ma avufima avetu ahentesigeno'a, 7ni'a zage gnafina agaze zana e'orisio? Atrenkeno 7ni'a zage gna kumamofo fegi'a umani'nena, ana kna vagarena ete avreta kumapina efreho.
15 So they sent her outside the camp for seven days. (The people/We) did not move [to another location] until she returned.
Miriamuna kumamofo fegu'a 7ni'a zagegna atrazageno mani'nege'za, hage'za ovuza mani'nageno Miriamu'a ege'za ete avre'naze.
16 But after [she returned], they/we left Hazeroth and moved [north] in the Paran Desert and set up their/our tents there.
Henka'a, anazama vagarege'za, Israeli vahe'mo'za Hazeroti'a atre'za ka'ma hagage mopafi Parani hage'za kumara ome ki'za mani'naze.
