1 Awo Miryamu ne Alooni ne boogera nga bawakanya Musa olw’omukazi Omukuusi gwe yali awasizza, kubanga yali awasizza Mukuusi.
And Miriam and Aaron spoke against Moses because of the Cushite woman whom he had married; for he had married a Cushite woman.
2 Ne bagamba nti, “Naye ddala Mukama bwe yayogeranga yayitanga mu Musa yekka? Mu ffe namwo teyayogereramu?” Mukama Katonda n’abiwulira.
And they said: 'Hath the LORD indeed spoken only with Moses? hath He not spoken also with us?' And the LORD heard it. —
3 Naye nno, Musa yali musajja muwombeefu nnyo, nga muteefu okusinga abantu bonna abaali ku nsi.
Now the man Moses was very meek, above all the men that were upon the face of the earth. —
4 Amangwago Mukama n’ayogera ne Musa, ne Alooni ne Miryamu n’abagamba nti, “Mujje, mwensatule, mu Weema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu.” Bonsatule ne bagenda.
And the LORD spoke suddenly unto Moses, and unto Aaron, and unto Miriam: 'Come out ye three unto the tent of meeting.' And they three came out.
5 Mukama Katonda n’akkira mu mpagi ey’ekire, n’ayimirira ku mulyango gwa Weema n’ayita Alooni ne Miryamu. Bombi bwe baasembera
And 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 forth.
6 n’abagamba nti, “Muwulirize ebigambo byange: “Mu mmwe bwe mubaamu nnabbi wa Mukama Katonda, nneeraga gy’ali mu kulabikirwa, oba njogera naye mu birooto.
And He said: 'Hear now My words: if there be a prophet among you, I the LORD do make Myself known unto him in a vision, I do speak with him in a dream.
7 Naye ekyo si bwe kiri ku muddu wange Musa; mu nju yange yonna, muntu mwesigwa.
My servant Moses is not so; he is trusted in all My house;
8 Bwe mba njogera naye tutunulagana maaso na maaso, njogera butereevu so si mu ngero; alaba ekifaananyi kya Mukama Katonda. Kale, lwaki temwatidde okuwakanya omuddu wange Musa?”
with him do I speak mouth to mouth, even manifestly, and not in dark speeches; and the similitude of the LORD doth he behold; wherefore then were ye not afraid to speak against My servant, against Moses?'
9 Obusungu bwa Mukama Katonda ne bubabuubuukira, n’abaviira.
And the anger of the LORD was kindled against them; and He departed.
10 Ekire bwe kyasituka okuva ku Weema, era laba, Miryamu n’agengewala, n’atukula ng’omuzira. Alooni n’amukyukira n’alaba ng’agengewadde;
And when the cloud was removed from over the Tent, behold, Miriam was leprous, as white as snow; and Aaron looked upon Miriam; and, behold, she was leprous.
11 n’agamba Musa nti, “Nkwegayirira, mukama wange, oleme kututeekako kibi kino kye tukoze mu busirusiru bwaffe.
And Aaron said unto Moses: 'Oh my lord, lay not, I pray thee, sin upon us, for that we have done foolishly, and for that we have sinned.
12 Tomuleka omubiri gwe okufaanana ng’ogw’omwana omuwere azaalibwa ng’ali ng’afudde, ng’omubiri gwe guweddemu ensa.”
Let her not, I pray, be as one dead, of whom the flesh is half consumed when he cometh out of his mother's womb.'
13 Musa n’akaabirira Mukama ng’agamba nti, “Ayi Katonda, nkwegayirira omuwonye.”
And Moses cried unto the LORD, saying: 'Heal her now, O God, I beseech Thee.'
14 Mukama Katonda n’addamu Musa nti, “Singa kitaawe amuwandidde amalusu mu maaso, teyandibadde muswavu okumala ennaku musanvu? Kale mumusibire ebweru w’olusiisira okumala ennaku musanvu; bwe zinaggwaako ayinza okukomezebwawo.”
And the LORD said unto Moses: 'If her father had but spit in her face, should she not hide in shame seven days? let her be shut up without the camp seven days, and after that she shall be brought in again.'
15 Bw’atyo Miryamu n’asibirwa ebweru w’olusiisira okumala ennaku musanvu; abantu ne batasitula kutambula okutuusa Miryamu lwe yakomezebwawo.
And Miriam was shut up without the camp seven days; and the people journeyed not till Miriam was brought in again.
16 Ebyo bwe byaggwa abantu ne basitula okuva e Kazerosi ne batambula okutuusa lwe baasiisira mu ddungu lya Palani.
And afterward the people journeyed from Hazeroth, and pitched in the wilderness of Paran.
