Bilangan 12
1 Musa telah mengambil seorang wanita Kus menjadi istrinya, dan hal itu dijadikan alasan oleh Miryam dan Harun untuk mencela Musa.
Miriam and Aaron spoke against Moses because of the Cushite woman whom he had married; for he had married a Cushite woman.
2 Kata mereka, "Apakah melalui Musa saja TUHAN berbicara? Bukankah melalui kita juga Ia berbicara?" TUHAN mendengar apa yang mereka katakan.
They said, "Has the LORD indeed spoken only with Moses? Hasn't he spoken also with us?" And the LORD heard it.
3 Musa adalah orang yang sangat rendah hati, melebihi semua orang yang hidup di bumi ini.
Now the man Moses was very humble, above all the men who were on the surface of the earth.
4 Tiba-tiba TUHAN berkata kepada Musa, Harun dan Miryam, "Kamu bertiga pergilah ke Kemah-Ku." Lalu mereka pergi ke situ
The LORD spoke suddenly to Moses, to Aaron, and to Miriam, "You three come out to the Tent of Meeting." The three of them came out.
5 dan TUHAN turun dalam tiang awan. TUHAN berdiri di pintu Kemah-Nya dan memanggil Harun serta Miryam. Kedua orang itu maju,
The LORD came down in a pillar of cloud, and stood at the door of the Tent, and called Aaron and Miriam; and they both came forward.
6 dan TUHAN berkata, "Dengarlah kata-kata-Ku ini! Jika di antara kamu ada seorang nabi, Aku menyatakan diri-Ku kepadanya dalam penglihatan-pengl dan berbicara dengan dia dalam mimpi.
He said, "Hear now my words. If there is a prophet among you, I the LORD will make myself known to him in a vision. I will speak with him in a dream.
7 Tetapi tidak begitu dengan hamba-Ku Musa. Dialah orang yang setia di antara umat-Ku.
My servant Moses is not so. He is faithful in all my house.
8 Dan Aku berbicara dengan dia berhadapan muka, secara jelas dan tidak dengan teka-teki. Bahkan rupa-Ku pun sudah dilihatnya! Mengapa kamu berani melawan Musa, hamba-Ku itu?"
With him I will speak mouth to mouth, even openly, and not in riddles; and he shall see the LORD's form. Why then were you not afraid to speak against my servant, against Moses?"
9 TUHAN marah sekali kepada mereka berdua, dan Ia pergi.
The anger of the LORD was kindled against them; and he departed.
10 Ketika awan itu meninggalkan Kemah TUHAN, tampaklah Miryam kena penyakit kulit yang berbahaya; kulitnya putih seperti kapas. Ketika Harun berpaling kepada Miryam dan melihat bahwa ia sudah kena penyakit itu,
The cloud departed from over the Tent; and look, Miriam was leprous, as white as snow. Aaron looked at Miriam, and look, she was leprous.
11 berkatalah ia kepada Musa, "Tolonglah, Tuanku, jangan biarkan kami disiksa karena dosa yang kami buat dalam kebodohan kami.
Aaron said to Moses, "Oh, my lord, please do not count this sin against us, in which we have done foolishly, and in which we have sinned.
12 Jangan biarkan dia menjadi seperti bayi yang lahir sudah mati, dengan dagingnya setengah busuk."
Let her not, I pray, be as one dead, of whom the flesh is half consumed when he comes out of his mother's womb."
13 Maka berserulah Musa kepada TUHAN, "Ya Allah, saya mohon, sembuhkanlah dia!"
Moses cried to the LORD, saying, "Heal her, God, I beg you."
14 TUHAN menjawab, "Andaikata mukanya diludahi ayahnya, bukankah selama tujuh hari ia harus menanggung malu? Singkirkanlah dia dari perkemahan selama tujuh hari, dan sesudah itu ia boleh masuk kembali."
The LORD said to Moses, "If her father had but spit in her face, shouldn't she be ashamed seven days? Let her be shut up outside of the camp seven days, and after that she shall be brought in again."
15 Lalu Miryam dikeluarkan dari perkemahan selama tujuh hari, dan bangsa itu tidak pindah dari situ sampai Miryam diperbolehkan kembali ke perkemahan.
Miriam was shut up outside of the camp seven days, and the people did not travel until Miriam was brought in again.
16 Kemudian mereka meninggalkan Hazerot dan berkemah di padang gurun Paran.
Afterward the people traveled from Hazeroth, and camped in the wilderness of Paran.
