4 Mose 12

1 Miriam ne Aaron kasa tiaa Mose sɛ ne yere yɛ Etiopiani.

And Miriam and Aaron spake against Moses because of the Cushite woman whom he had married: for he had married a Cushite woman.

2 Wɔkae se, “Mose nko ara na Awurade akasa afa ne so ana? Na yɛn nso ɔnkasa mfa yɛn so bi ana?” Na Awurade tee wɔn anwiinwii no.

And they said, Hath the LORD indeed spoken only with Moses? hath he not spoken also with us? And the LORD heard it.

3 Na Mose yɛ ɔhobrɛaseni sen obiara a ɔte asase yi so.

Now the man Moses was very meek, above all the men which were upon the face of the earth.

4 Ntɛm so, Awurade frɛɛ Mose, Aaron ne Miriam kɔɔ Ahyiae Ntamadan no mu. Ɔhyɛɛ wɔn se, “Mo baasa no mommra Ahyiae Ntamadan mu ha.” Enti wobegyinagyinaa Awurade anim.

And the LORD spake suddenly unto Moses, and unto Aaron, and unto Miriam, Come out ye three unto the tent of meeting. And they three came out.

5 Afei, Awurade nam omununkum fadum mu sian ba begyinaa Ahyiae Ntamadan no kwan ano, na ɔfrɛɛ Aaron ne Miriam. Bere a wotwiw kɔɔ wɔn anim no,

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 ɔkae se, “Muntie me nsɛm: “Sɛ odiyifo wɔ mo mu a, Me, Awurade, menam anisoadehu so da me ho adi kyerɛ no, me kasa kyerɛ no wɔ dae mu.

And he said, Hear now my words: if there be a prophet among you, I the LORD will make myself known unto him in a vision, I will speak with him in a dream.

7 Nanso ɛnte saa wɔ me somfo Mose ho. Me fi nyinaa mu no, ɔyɛ ɔnokwafo.

My servant Moses is not so; he is faithful in all mine house:

8 Me ne no kasa anim ne anim, kasa a emu da hɔ na ɛnyɛ abisae mu. Na ohu Awurade sɛnea ɔte. Adɛn nti na moansuro sɛ mobɛkasa atia me somfo Mose?”

with him will I speak mouth to mouth, even manifestly, and not in dark speeches; and the form of the LORD shall he behold: wherefore then were ye not afraid to speak against my servant, against Moses?

9 Awurade bo fuw wɔn dennen pa ara na ofii hɔ kɔe.

And the anger of the LORD was kindled against them; and he departed.

10 Bere a omununkum no fii Ahyiae Ntamadan no atifi no, kwata beduruu Miriam ho fitaa sɛ sukyerɛmma. Aaron twaa nʼani huu sɛ ɔwɔ ɔhonam ani yare a ɛyɛ fi no,

And the cloud removed from over the Tent; and, behold, Miriam was leprous, as [white as] snow: and Aaron looked upon Miriam, and, behold, she was leprous.

11 ɔka kyerɛɛ Mose se, “Me wura, mesrɛ wo, nnyina saa bɔne a yɛnam nkwaseasɛm so adi yi so ntwe yɛn aso.

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 Mma no nyɛ sɛ akokoaa a wawu wɔ ne yam a ne fa aporɔw.”

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 Na Mose teɛɛ mu frɛɛ Awurade se, “Onyankopɔn, mesrɛ wo sɛ sa no yare!”

And Moses cried unto the LORD, saying, Heal her, O God, I beseech thee.

14 Awurade buaa Mose se, “Sɛ nʼagya tew ntasu guu nʼanim a, anka nʼanim rengu ase nnanson? Munyi no mfi atenae ha nkɔhyɛ baabi nnanson na akyiri no, obetumi asan aba.”

And the LORD said unto Moses, If her father had but spit in her face, should she not be ashamed seven days? let her be shut up without the camp seven days, and after that she shall be brought in again.

15 Enti wotwaa Miriam asu fii atenae hɔ ma okodii nnanson. Nnipa no twɛn kosii sɛ wɔsan de no bae ansa na wɔretu kwan no bio.

And Miriam was shut up without the camp seven days: and the people journeyed not till Miriam was brought in again.

16 Ɛno akyi no, wofii Haserot bɛbɔɔ atenae wɔ Paran sare so.

And afterward the people journeyed from Hazeroth, and pitched in the wilderness of Paran.
