Numbers 12
1 And Miriam speaketh — Aaron also — against Moses concerning the circumstance of the Cushite woman whom he had taken: for a Cushite woman he had taken;
Miriamu ndi Aaroni anayamba kuyankhula motsutsana ndi Mose chifukwa cha mkazi wa ku Kusi, popeza Moseyo anakwatira Mkusi.
2 and they say, 'Only by Moses hath Jehovah spoken? also by us hath he not spoken?' and Jehovah heareth.
Iwowo anafunsa kuti, “Kodi Yehova anayankhula kudzera mwa Mose yekha? Kodi sanayankhule kudzeranso mwa ife?” Ndipo Yehova anamva zimenezi.
3 And the man Moses [is] very humble, more than any of the men who [are] on the face of the ground.
(Koma Mose anali munthu wodzichepetsa kwambiri kuposa munthu aliyense pa dziko lapansi).
4 And Jehovah saith suddenly unto Moses, and unto Aaron, and unto Miriam, 'Come out ye three unto the tent of meeting;' and they three come out.
Nthawi yomweyo Yehova anati kwa Mose, Aaroni ndi Miriamu, “Bwerani ku tenti ya msonkhano nonse atatu.” Ndipo atatuwo anapitadi kumeneko.
5 And Jehovah cometh down in the pillar of the cloud, and standeth at the opening of the tent, and calleth Aaron and Miriam, and they come out both of them.
Tsono Yehova anatsika mu mtambo, nayima pa khomo la chihema. Kenaka anayitana Aaroni ndi Miriamu. Ndipo onse awiri atapita patsogolo,
6 And He saith, 'Hear, I pray you, My words: If your prophet is of Jehovah — in an appearance unto him I make Myself known; in a dream I speak with him;
Mulungu anati, “Mverani mawu anga: “Pakakhala mneneri wa Yehova pakati panu, ndimadzionetsera kwa iyeyo mʼmasomphenya, ndimayankhula naye mʼmaloto.
7 not so My servant Moses; in all My house he [is] stedfast;
Koma sinditero ndi Mose mtumiki wanga; Iyeyu ndi wokhulupirika mʼnyumba yanga yonse.
8 mouth unto mouth I speak with him, and [by] an appearance, and not in riddles; and the form of Jehovah he beholdeth attentively; and wherefore have ye not been afraid to speak against My servant — against Moses?'
Ndimayankhula naye maso ndi maso, momveka bwino osati mophiphiritsa; ndipo amaona maonekedwe a Yehova. Nʼchifukwa chiyani simunaope kuyankhula motsutsana ndi Mose mtumiki wanga?”
9 And the anger of Jehovah burneth against them, and He goeth on,
Ndipo Yehova anawakwiyira, nachoka.
10 and the cloud hath turned aside from off the tent, and lo, Miriam [is] leprous as snow; and Aaron turneth unto Miriam, and lo, leprous!
Pamene mtambo unachoka pamwamba pa Chihema, taonani, Miriamu anagwidwa ndi khate. Aaroni atachewuka anaona Miriamu ali ndi khate;
11 And Aaron saith unto Moses, 'O, my lord, I pray thee, lay not upon us sin [in] which we have been foolish, and [in] which we have sinned;
ndipo Aaroni anawuza Mose kuti, “Pepani mbuye wanga, musatilange chifukwa cha tchimo limene tachita mopusa.
12 let her not, I pray thee, be as [one] dead, when in his coming out from the womb of his mother — the half of his flesh is consumed.'
Musalole kuti Miriamu akhale ngati mwana wobadwa wakufa kuchoka mʼmimba mwa amayi ake, thupi lake litawonongeka.”
13 And Moses crieth unto Jehovah, saying, 'O God, I pray Thee, give, I pray Thee, healing to her.'
Tsono Mose anafuwulira Yehova kuti, “Chonde Inu Mulungu, muchiritseni!”
14 And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'And her father had but spat in her face — is she not ashamed seven days? she is shut out seven days at the outside of the camp, and afterwards she is gathered.'
Yehova anayankha Mose kuti, “Abambo ake akanamulavulira malovu mʼmaso, kodi sakanakhala wonyozeka masiku asanu ndi awiri? Mutsekereni kunja kwa msasa masiku asanu ndi awiri, kenaka mumulowetsenso.”
15 And Miriam is shut out at the outside of the camp seven days, and the people hath not journeyed till Miriam is gathered;
Choncho anamutsekera Miriamu kunja kwa msasa masiku asanu ndi awiri ndipo anthu sanayende ulendo wawo mpaka Miriamu atamulowetsanso.
16 and afterwards have the people journeyed from Hazeroth, and they encamp in the wilderness of Paran.
Pambuyo pake anthu ananyamuka ku Heziroti ndi kukamanga mʼchipululu cha Parani.
