Oekyuk 12

1 Moses el tuh payukyak sin sie mutan Cush. Miriam ac Aaron kaskas in akkolukyal Moses kac.

And Mariam and Aaron spoke against Moses, because of the Ethiopian woman whom Moses took; for he had taken an Ethiopian woman.

2 Eltal fahk, “Mea, LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sin mwet uh sel Moses mukena? Ya El tia kaskas pac kacsr?” LEUM GOD El lohng ma eltal fahk. (

And they said, Has the Lord spoken to Moses only? has he not also spoken to us? and the Lord heard it.

3 Moses el mwet na fakpap se, yohk liki kutena mwet fin faclu.)

And the man Moses was very meek beyond all the men that were upon the earth.

4 In kitin pacl ah na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses, Aaron, ac Miriam, “Nga lungse komtal kewa in tuku nu ke Lohm Nuknuk Mutal sik.” Na eltal som,

And the Lord said immediately to Moses and Aaron and Mariam, Come forth all three of you to the tabernacle of witness.

5 ac LEUM GOD El oatui in sie sru in pukunyeng, ac tu ke nien utyak lun Lohm Nuknuk Mutal. El pangnol Aaron ac Miriam, na eltal kalukyang,

And the three came forth to the tabernacle of witness; and the Lord descended in a pillar of a cloud, and stood at the door of the tabernacle of witness; and Aaron and Mariam were called; and both came forth.

6 ac LEUM GOD El fahk, “Lohng ma nga ac fahk inge! Ke pacl oasr mwet palu inmasrlowos, nga sifacna fahkyuyak nu selos ke aruruma, ac nga kaskas nu selos in mweme.

And he said to them, Hear my words: If there should be of you a prophet to the Lord, I will be made known to him in a vision, and in sleep will I speak to him.

7 Tusruktu tia ouinge ke nga kaskas nu sel Moses, mwet kulansap luk. Nga srisrngilya elan kol mwet Israel nukewa luk.

My servant Moses [is] not so; he is faithful in all my house.

8 Ke ma inge pacl nga kaskas nu sel kut ngetani na sramsram lemtulauk, ac tia ke kas lukma. El liye tari lumuk! Na fuka tuh komtal ku in kaskas lainul Moses, mwet kulansap luk?”

I will speak to him mouth to mouth apparently, and not in dark speeches; and he has seen the glory of the Lord; and why were you not afraid to speak against my servant Moses?

9 LEUM GOD El kasrkusrakak seltal; ouinge ke El som lukeltal

And the great anger of the Lord [was] upon them, and he departed.

10 ac pukunyeng sac sowak liki Lohm Nuknuk Mutal, Miriam el musen lepayak, ac manol fasrfasrla oana snow. Na ke Aaron el ngetang liye lah Miriam el lepa lac,

And the cloud departed from the tabernacle; and, behold, Mariam was leprous, [white] as snow; and Aaron looked upon Mariam, and, behold, she [was] leprous.

11 el fahk nu sel Moses, “Leum luk, nunak munas, nimet kalyei kut ke ma koluk lalfon se lasr.

And Aaron said to Moses, I beseech you, my lord, do not lay sin upon us, for we were ignorant wherein we sinned.

12 Nikmet lela Miriam elan oana sie tulik su isusla misa, su tafu ikwal mongola.”

Let her not be as it were like death, as an abortion coming out of his mother's womb, when [the disease] devours the half of the flesh.

13 Ke ma inge Moses el wowoyak tung nu sin LEUM GOD ac fahk, “O God, akkeyala mutan se inge!”

And Moses cried to the Lord, saying, O God, I beseech you, heal her.

14 LEUM GOD El topuk, “Papa tumal funu aniya mutal, na el lukun muta in mwekin lal len itkosr. Ke ma inge lela elan muta likin nien aktuktuk uh len itkosr, na toko ac ku in folokinyukme el.”

And the Lord said to Moses, If her father had only spit in her face, would she not be ashamed seven days? let her be set apart seven days without the camp, and afterwards she shall come in.

15 Miriam el muta likin nien aktuktuk len itkosr, ac mwet uh tiana mukuiyak nwe ke na folokinyukme el.

And Mariam was separated without the camp seven days; and the people moved not forward till Mariam was cleansed.

16 Toko elos fahsr liki acn Hazeroth, ac tulokunak nien aktuktuk selos in acn mwesis lun Paran.

And afterwards the people set forth from Aseroth, and encamped in the wilderness of Pharan.
