Numbers 12
1 Then Miriam and Aaron spoke against Moses because of the Cushite woman whom he had married.
Locutaque est Maria et Aaron contra Moysen propter uxorem eius Æthiopissam,
2 They said, “Has Yahweh spoken only with Moses? Has he not spoken also with us?” Now Yahweh heard what they said.
et dixerunt: Num per solum Moysen locutus est Dominus? Nonne et nobis similiter est locutus? Quod cum audisset Dominus,
3 Now the man Moses was very humble, humbler than anyone else on earth.
(erat enim Moyses vir mitissimus super omnes homines qui morabantur in terra)
4 Right away Yahweh spoke to Moses, Aaron, and Miriam: “Come out, you three, to the tent of meeting.” So the three of them went out.
statim locutus est ad eum, et ad Aaron et Mariam: Egredimini vos tantum tres ad tabernaculum fœderis. Cumque fuissent egressi,
5 Then Yahweh came down in a pillar of cloud. He stood at the entrance to the tent and called Aaron and Miriam. They both came forward.
descendit Dominus in columna nubis, et stetit in introitu tabernaculi vocans Aaron et Mariam. Qui cum issent,
6 Yahweh said, “Now listen to my words. When a prophet of mine is with you, I will reveal myself to him in visions and speak to him in dreams.
dixit ad eos: Audite sermones meos: si quis fuerit inter vos propheta Domini, in visione apparebo ei, vel per somnium loquar ad illum.
7 My servant Moses is not like that. He is faithful in all my house.
At non talis servus meus Moyses, qui in omni domo mea fidelissimus est:
8 I speak to Moses directly, not with visions or riddles. He sees my form. So why are you unafraid to speak against my servant, against Moses?”
ore enim ad os loquor ei: et palam, et non per ænigmata et figuras Dominum videt. Quare ergo non timuistis detrahere servo meo Mosyi?
9 Yahweh's anger burned against them, and then he left them.
Iratusque contra eos, abiit:
10 The cloud rose from over the tent, and Miriam was suddenly leprous—she was as white as snow. When Aaron turned toward Miriam, he saw that she had leprosy.
nubes quoque recessit quæ erat super tabernaculum: et ecce Maria apparuit candens lepra quasi nix. Cumque respexisset eam Aaron, et vidisset perfusam lepra,
11 Aaron said to Moses, “Oh, my master, please do not hold this sin against us. We have spoken foolishly, and we have sinned.
ait ad Moysen: Obsecro domine mi, ne imponas nobis hoc peccatum quod stulte commisimus,
12 Please do not let her be like a dead newborn whose flesh is half consumed when it emerges from its mother's womb.”
ne fiat hæc quasi mortua, et ut abortivum quod proiicitur de vulva matris suæ. Ecce iam medium carnis eius devoratum est a lepra.
13 So Moses called out to Yahweh. He said, “Please heal her, God, please.”
Clamavitque Moyses ad Dominum, dicens: Deus, obsecro, sana eam.
14 Yahweh said to Moses, “If her father had spit in her face, she would be disgraced for seven days. Shut her outside the camp for seven days. After that bring her in again.”
Cui respondit Dominus: Si pater eius spuisset in faciem illius, nonne debuerat saltem septem diebus rubore suffundi? Separetur septem diebus extra castra, et postea revocabitur.
15 So Miriam was shut outside the camp for seven days. The people did not journey until she had returned to the camp.
Exclusa est itaque Maria extra castra septem diebus: et populus non est motus de loco illo, donec revocata est Maria.
16 After that, the people journeyed from Hazeroth and camped in the wilderness of Paran.
Profectusque est populus de Haseroth fixis tentoriis in deserto Pharan.
