Nomery 12
1 Ary Miriama sy Arona niteny nanome tsiny an’ i Mosesy noho ny vehivavy Kosita izay efa nampakariny; fa efa nampakatra vehivavy Kosita izy.
And Miriam and Aaron spoke against Moses because of the Ethiopian woman whom he had taken; for he had taken a Cushite as wife.
2 Dia hoy izy mianadahy: Moa Mosesy ihany va no efa nitenenan’ i Jehovah? tsy izahay koa va no nitenenany? Dia ren’ i Jehovah izany.
And they said, Has Jehovah indeed spoken only to Moses? has he not spoken also to us? And Jehovah heard it.
3 Ary Mosesy dia lehilahy nalemy fanahy mihoatra noho ny olona rehetra atỳ ambonin’ ny tany.
But the man Moses was very meek, above all men that were upon the face of the earth.
4 Ary Jehovah dia niteny tampoka tamin’ i Mosesy sy Arona ary Miriama hoe: Mivoaha ianareo telo mianadahy ho any amin’ ny trano-lay fihaonana. Dia nivoaka izy telo mianadahy.
Then Jehovah spoke suddenly to Moses, and to Aaron, and to Miriam, Come out ye three unto the tent of meeting. And they went out, they three.
5 Ary andri-rahona no nidinan’ i Jehovah, ka nitsangana teo am-baravaran’ ny trano-lay Izy; dia niantso an’ i Arona sy Miriama Izy, ka nivoaka izy mianadahy.
And Jehovah came down in the pillar of the cloud, and stood at the entrance of the tent, and called Aaron and Miriam; and they both came forth.
6 Dia hoy Izy: Mba mihainoa ny teniko: Raha misy mpaminanin’ i Jehovah eo aminareo, dia amin’ ny fahitana no hisehoako aminy, ary amin’ ny nofy no hitenenako aminy.
And he said, Hear now my words: If there be a prophet among you, I Jehovah will make myself known to him in a vision, I will speak to him in a dream.
7 Fa tsy toy izany kosa Mosesy mpanompoko, izay mahatoky amin’ ny tranoko rehetra.
Not so my servant Moses: he is faithful in all my house.
8 Mifanatrika no itenenako aminy, dia amin’ ny fahitana, fa tsy amin’ ny teny saro-pantarina, ary mijery ny endrik’ i Jehovah izy; ka nahoana ianareo no tsy natahotra hanome tsiny an’ i Mosesy mpanompoko?
Mouth to mouth do I speak to him openly, and not in riddles; and the form of Jehovah doth he behold. Why then were ye not afraid to speak against my servant, against Moses?
9 Dia nirehitra ny fahatezeran’ i Jehovah tamin’ izy mianadahy, ka niala Izy.
And the anger of Jehovah was kindled against them, and he went away;
10 Ary ny rahona niala tamin’ ny trano-lay; ary, indro, boka Miriama ka fotsy tahaka ny oram-panala; ary Arona dia nijery an’ i Miriama, ka indro fa boka izy.
and the cloud departed from off the tent. And behold, Miriam was leprous as snow; and Aaron turned toward Miriam, and behold, she was leprous.
11 Ary hoy Arona tamin’ i Mosesy: Indrisy, tompoko, masìna ianao, aza atao ho helokay ny nanaovanay adaladala sy ny nanotanay.
Then Aaron said to Moses, Alas, my lord, I beseech thee, lay not this sin upon us, wherein we have been foolish, and have sinned!
12 Aza dia avela ho toy ny maty izy, izay lany ny antsasaky ny nofony, raha vao teraka izy.
Let her not be as one stillborn, half of whose flesh is consumed when he comes out of his mother's womb.
13 Ary Mosesy dia nitaraina tamin’ i Jehovah ka nanao hoe: Andriamanitra ô, mifona aminao aho, mba sitrano re izy!
And Moses cried to Jehovah, saying, O God, heal her, I beseech thee!
14 Dia hoy Jehovah tamin’ i Mosesy: Raha nandrora tamin’ ny tavany rainy, moa tsy ho menatra hafitoana va izy? koa atokàny any ivelan’ ny toby hafitoana izy, ary rehefa afaka izany, dia ampidiro indray.
And Jehovah said to Moses, But had her father anyways spat in her face, should she not be shamed seven days? She shall be shut outside the camp seven days, and afterwards she shall be received in [again].
15 Dia natokana tany ivelan’ ny toby hafitoana Miriama; ary ny olona tsy niainga, raha tsy efa nampidirina Miriama.
And Miriam was shut outside the camp seven days; and the people did not journey till Miriam was received in [again].
16 Ary rehefa afaka izany, dia niainga niala tany Hazerota ny olona ka nitoby tany an-efitra Parana.
And afterwards the people journeyed from Hazeroth, and encamped in the wilderness of Paran.
