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.
И стадоше викати Марија и Арон на Мојсија ради жене Мадијанке, којом се ожени, јер се ожени Мадијанком.
И рекоше: Зар је само преко Мојсија говорио Господ? Није ли говорио и преко нас? И то чу Господ.
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].
А Мојсије беше човек врло кротак мимо све људе на земљи.
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.
И одмах рече Господ Мојсију и Арону и Марији: Дођите вас троје у шатор од састанка. И отидоше њих троје.
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.
Тада сиђе Господ у ступу од облака, стаде на вратима од шатора. И викну Арона и Марију, и дођоше обоје.
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.
И рече им: Чујте сада речи моје: пророк кад је међу вама, ја ћу му се Господ јављати у утвари и говорићу с њим у сну.
7 But that is not the way I speak to my servant Moses. I trust that he will lead my people [well].
Али није такав мој слуга Мојсије, који је веран у свем дому мом.
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!”
Њему говорим из уста к устима, и он ме гледа доиста, а не у тами нити у каквој прилици Господњој. Како се дакле не побојасте викати на слугу мог, на Мојсија?
9 Yahweh was very angry with Miriam and Aaron, and he left.
И гнев се Господњи распали на њих, и Он отиде.
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.
И облак се подиже са шатора; и гле, Марија беше губава, бела као снег. И Арон погледа Марију, а она губава.
11 Aaron said to Moses/me, “My master, please do not punish us for this sin that we have foolishly committed.
Тада рече Арон Мојсију: Господару, молим те, не мећи на нас греха овог, јер лудо учинисмо и згрешисмо.
12 Do not allow Miriam to be like a baby that is already dead when it is born, whose flesh is already half decayed!”
Немој да ова буде као мртво дете, коме је месо пола труло кад излази из утробе мајке своје.
13 So Moses/I cried out to Yahweh, saying, “God, I plead with you to heal her!”
И вапи Мојсије ка Господу говорећи: Боже, молим Ти се, исцели је.
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.”
А Господ одговори Мојсију: Да јој је отац њен пљунуо у лице, не би ли се стидела седам дана? Нека буде одлучена седам дана изван логора, а после нека буде опет примљена.
15 So they sent her outside the camp for seven days. (The people/We) did not move [to another location] until she returned.
Тако би Марија одлучена изван логора седам дана; и народ не пође оданде докле Марија не би опет примљена.
16 But after [she returned], they/we left Hazeroth and moved [north] in the Paran Desert and set up their/our tents there.
А потом пође народ од Асирота, и стадоше у пустињи Фаранској.
