1 Marie avèk Aaron te vin pale kont Moïse akoz fanm Koushit ke li te marye a; paske li te marye avèk yon fanm Koushit;
Then Miriam and Aaron criticized Moses because of the Cushite woman he had married, for he had taken a Cushite wife.
2 Konsa, yo te di: “Èske SENYÈ a vrèman te pale sèlman ak Moïse? Èske Li pa t pale ak nou menm tou?” Epi SENYÈ a te tande sa.
“Does the LORD speak only through Moses?” they said. “Does He not also speak through us?” And the LORD heard this.
3 Alò, nonm Moïse la te trè enb, plis pase tout moun ki te sou sifas latè a.
Now Moses was a very humble man, more so than any man on the face of the earth.
4 Sibitman, SENYÈ a te di a Moïse ak Aaron avèk Marie: “Nou twa a, vin sòti nan tant asanble a”. Alò, yo twa a te sòti.
And suddenly the LORD said to Moses, Aaron, and Miriam, “You three, come out to the Tent of Meeting.” So the three went out,
5 Epi SENYÈ a te desann nan yon pilye nwaj. Li te kanpe nan pòtay tant asanble a, e Li te rele Aaron avèk Marie. Yo toude te vin avanse.
and the LORD came down in a pillar of cloud, stood at the entrance to the Tent, and summoned Aaron and Miriam. When both of them had stepped forward,
6 Li te di: “Koute pawòl Mwen koulye a: Si gen yon pwofèt pami nou, Mwen, SENYÈ a, Mwen va fè Mwen menm vin rekonèt a li menm nan yon vizyon. Mwen va pale avèk li nan yon rèv.
He said, “Hear now My words: If there is a prophet among you, I, the LORD, will reveal Myself to him in a vision; I will speak to him in a dream.
7 Se pa konsa avèk sèvitè Mwen, Moïse. Li fidèl nan tout kay Mwen;
But this is not so with My servant Moses; he is faithful in all My house.
8 Avèk li, Mwen pale bouch a bouch, byen klè, pa nan pawòl parabòl, epi li wè fòm SENYÈ a menm. Poukisa, konsa, nou pa t pè pou pale kont sèvitè Mwen an, kont Moïse?”
I speak with him face to face, clearly and not in riddles; he sees the form of the LORD. Why then were you unafraid to speak against My servant Moses?”
9 Epi kòlè SENYÈ a te brile kont yo, e Li te pati.
So the anger of the LORD burned against them, and He departed.
10 Lè nwaj la te kite tant lan, vwala, Marie te gen lalèp, blan tankou lanèj. Epi lè Aaron te gade, alò, Marie te gen lalèp.
As the cloud lifted from above the Tent, suddenly Miriam became leprous, white as snow. Aaron turned toward her, saw that she was leprous,
11 Aaron te di Moïse: “O senyè Mwen an! Mwen mande ou souple, pa konte peche sa a kont nou, nan sila nou te aji avèk foli a, ak nan sila nou te peche a.
and said to Moses, “My lord, please do not hold against us this sin we have so foolishly committed.
12 O Pa kite chè Marie rete kòm yon timoun ki fenk fèt mouri, ki sòti nan vant manman li avèk chè li mwatye manje!”
Please do not let her be like a stillborn infant whose flesh is half consumed when he comes out of his mother’s womb.”
13 Moïse te kriye fò bay SENYÈ a. Li te di: “O Bondye, geri li, mwen priye Ou!”
So Moses cried out to the LORD, “O God, please heal her!”
14 Men SENYÈ a te reponn Moïse: “Si papa li te sèlman krache nan figi li, èske li pa t ap pote wont li pandan sèt jou? Kite li rete fèmen pandan sèt jou deyò kan an. Apre, l ap kapab rantre ankò.”
But the LORD answered Moses, “If her father had but spit in her face, would she not have been in disgrace for seven days? Let her be confined outside the camp for seven days; after that she may be brought back in.”
15 Konsa Marie te fèmen deyò kan an pandan sèt jou, e pèp la pa t deplase jiskaske Marie te vin rantre ankò.
So Miriam was confined outside the camp for seven days, and the people did not move on until she was brought in again.
16 Apre sa a, pèp la te deplase kite Hatséroth pou te fè kan nan dezè Paran an.
After that, the people set out from Hazeroth and camped in the Wilderness of Paran.
