Numbers 12

1 Miriamu àti Aaroni sọ̀rọ̀-òdì sí Mose nítorí pé ó fẹ́ obìnrin ará Etiopia.

Then Miriam and Aaron criticized Moses because of the Cushite woman he had married, for he had taken a Cushite wife.

2 Wọ́n sì wí pé, “Nípa Mose nìkan ni Olúwa ti sọ̀rọ̀ bí, kò ha ti ipa wa sọ̀rọ̀ bí?” Olúwa sì gbọ́ èyí.

“Does the LORD speak only through Moses?” they said. “Does He not also speak through us?” And the LORD heard this.

3 (Mose sì jẹ́ ọlọ́kàn tútù ju gbogbo ènìyàn tó wà lórí ilẹ̀ ayé lọ).

Now Moses was a very humble man, more so than any man on the face of the earth.

4 Lẹ́ẹ̀kan náà ni Olúwa sọ fún Mose, Aaroni àti Miriamu pé, “Ẹ̀yin mẹ́tẹ̀ẹ̀ta, jáde wá sínú àgọ́ ìpàdé.” Àwọn mẹ́tẹ̀ẹ̀ta sì jáde síta.

And suddenly the LORD said to Moses, Aaron, and Miriam, “You three, come out to the Tent of Meeting.” So the three went out,

5 Nígbà náà ni Olúwa sọ̀kalẹ̀ nínú ọ̀wọ́n ìkùùkuu, ó sì dúró ní ẹnu-ọ̀nà àgọ́, ó ké sí Aaroni àti Miriamu. Àwọn méjèèjì sì bọ́ síwájú,

and the LORD came down in a pillar of cloud, stood at the entrance to the Tent, and summoned Aaron and Miriam. When both of them had stepped forward,

6 Ó wí pé, “Ẹ gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ mi, “Bí wòlíì Olúwa bá wà láàrín yín, Èmi Olúwa a máa fi ara à mi hàn án ní ojúran, Èmi a máa bá a sọ̀rọ̀ nínú àlá.

He said, “Hear now My words: If there is a prophet among you, I, the LORD, will reveal Myself to him in a vision; I will speak to him in a dream.

7 Ṣùgbọ́n èyí kò rí bẹ́ẹ̀ pẹ̀lú Mose ìránṣẹ́ mi; ó jẹ́ olóòtítọ́ nínú gbogbo ilé mi.

But this is not so with My servant Moses; he is faithful in all My house.

8 Mo sì ń bá a sọ̀rọ̀ ní ojúkojú, ọ̀rọ̀ yékéyéké tí kì í ṣe òwe, ó rí àwòrán Olúwa. Kí ló wá dé tí ẹ̀yin kò ṣe bẹ̀rù láti sọ̀rọ̀-òdì sí Mose ìránṣẹ́ mi?”

I speak with him face to face, clearly and not in riddles; he sees the form of the LORD. Why then were you unafraid to speak against My servant Moses?”

9 Ìbínú Olúwa sì ru sókè sí wọn Olúwa sì fi wọ́n sílẹ̀.

So the anger of the LORD burned against them, and He departed.

10 Nígbà tí ìkùùkuu kúrò lórí àgọ́ lójijì ni Miriamu di adẹ́tẹ̀, ó funfun bí i yìnyín. Aaroni sì padà wo Miriamu ó sì rí i pé ó ti di adẹ́tẹ̀,

As the cloud lifted from above the Tent, suddenly Miriam became leprous, white as snow. Aaron turned toward her, saw that she was leprous,

11 Aaroni sì wí fún Mose pé, “Jọ̀wọ́ olúwa mi, má ṣe ka ẹ̀ṣẹ̀, èyí tí a fi ìwà òmùgọ̀ dá sí wa lọ́rùn.

and said to Moses, “My lord, please do not hold against us this sin we have so foolishly committed.

12 Má ṣe jẹ́ kí ó dàbí òkú ọmọ tí a bí, tí ìdajì ara rẹ̀ ti rà dànù.”

Please do not let her be like a stillborn infant whose flesh is half consumed when he comes out of his mother’s womb.”

13 Torí èyí Mose sì kígbe sí Olúwa, “Ọlọ́run, jọ̀wọ́, mú un láradá!”

So Moses cried out to the LORD, “O God, please heal her!”

14 Olúwa sì dá Mose lóhùn, “Bí baba rẹ̀ bá tutọ́ sí i lójú, ojú kò wa ní í tì í fún ọjọ́ méje? Dá a dúró sí ẹ̀yìn ibùdó fún ọjọ́ méje, lẹ́yìn èyí ki a tó ó le mú wọlé.”

But the LORD answered Moses, “If her father had but spit in her face, would she not have been in disgrace for seven days? Let her be confined outside the camp for seven days; after that she may be brought back in.”

15 Miriamu sì dúró sí ẹ̀yìn ibùdó fún ọjọ́ méje, àwọn ènìyàn kò sì tẹ̀síwájú nínú ìrìnàjò wọn títí tí Miriamu fi wọ inú ibùdó padà.

So Miriam was confined outside the camp for seven days, and the people did not move on until she was brought in again.

16 Lẹ́yìn èyí, àwọn ènìyàn kúrò ní Haserotu, wọ́n sì pa ibùdó sí aginjù Parani.

After that, the people set out from Hazeroth and camped in the Wilderness of Paran.
