Okubala 12
1 Awo Miryamu ne Alooni ne boogera nga bawakanya Musa olw’omukazi Omukuusi gwe yali awasizza, kubanga yali awasizza Mukuusi.
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.
They said, “Has Yahweh indeed spoken only with Moses? Hasn’t he spoken also with us?” And Yahweh heard it.
3 Naye nno, Musa yali musajja muwombeefu nnyo, nga muteefu okusinga abantu bonna abaali ku nsi.
Now the man Moses was very humble, more than all the men who were on the surface 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.
Yahweh 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 Mukama Katonda n’akkira mu mpagi ey’ekire, n’ayimirira ku mulyango gwa Weema n’ayita Alooni ne Miryamu. Bombi bwe baasembera
Yahweh 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 n’abagamba nti, “Muwulirize ebigambo byange: “Mu mmwe bwe mubaamu nnabbi wa Mukama Katonda, nneeraga gy’ali mu kulabikirwa, oba njogera naye mu birooto.
He said, “Now hear my words. If there is a prophet among you, I, Yahweh, will make myself known to him in a vision. I will 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 faithful 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, I will speak mouth to mouth, even plainly, and not in riddles; and he shall see Yahweh’s form. Why then were you not afraid to speak against my servant, against Moses?”
9 Obusungu bwa Mukama Katonda ne bubabuubuukira, n’abaviira.
Yahweh’s anger burned 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;
The cloud departed from over the Tent; and behold, Miriam was leprous, as white as snow. Aaron looked at Miriam, and behold, she was leprous.
11 n’agamba Musa nti, “Nkwegayirira, mukama wange, oleme kututeekako kibi kino kye tukoze mu busirusiru bwaffe.
Aaron said to Moses, “Oh, my lord, please don’t count this sin against us, in which we have done foolishly, and in which 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 comes out of his mother’s womb.”
13 Musa n’akaabirira Mukama ng’agamba nti, “Ayi Katonda, nkwegayirira omuwonye.”
Moses cried to Yahweh, saying, “Heal her, God, I beg you!”
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.”
Yahweh 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 Bw’atyo Miryamu n’asibirwa ebweru w’olusiisira okumala ennaku musanvu; abantu ne batasitula kutambula okutuusa Miryamu lwe yakomezebwawo.
Miriam was shut up outside of the camp seven days, and the people didn’t travel until Miriam was brought in again.
16 Ebyo bwe byaggwa abantu ne basitula okuva e Kazerosi ne batambula okutuusa lwe baasiisira mu ddungu lya Palani.
Afterward the people traveled from Hazeroth, and encamped in the wilderness of Paran.
