Numbers 12
1 Miriamu àti Aaroni sọ̀rọ̀-òdì sí Mose nítorí pé ó fẹ́ obìnrin ará Etiopia.
And Miriam and Aaron spoke against Moses, because of his wife, an Ethiopian,
2 Wọ́n sì wí pé, “Nípa Mose nìkan ni Olúwa ti sọ̀rọ̀ bí, kò ha ti ipa wa sọ̀rọ̀ bí?” Olúwa sì gbọ́ èyí.
and they said: “Has the Lord spoken only through Moses? Has he not also spoken similarly to us?” And when the Lord had heard this,
3 (Mose sì jẹ́ ọlọ́kàn tútù ju gbogbo ènìyàn tó wà lórí ilẹ̀ ayé lọ).
(for Moses was a man exceedingly meek, beyond all the men who were living upon 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.
immediately he spoke to him, and to Aaron and Miriam, “Go out, you three only, to the tabernacle of the covenant.” And when they had gone 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,
the Lord descended in a column of cloud, and he stood at the entrance of the tabernacle, calling to Aaron and Miriam. And when they had advanced,
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 to them: “Listen to my words. If there will be among you a prophet of the Lord, I will appear to him in a vision, or I will speak to him through a dream.
7 Ṣùgbọ́n èyí kò rí bẹ́ẹ̀ pẹ̀lú Mose ìránṣẹ́ mi; ó jẹ́ olóòtítọ́ nínú gbogbo ilé mi.
But it is not so with my servant Moses, who is the most 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?”
For I speak with him mouth to mouth, and plainly. And not through enigmas and figures does he perceive the Lord. Therefore, why were you not afraid to disparage my servant Moses?”
9 Ìbínú Olúwa sì ru sókè sí wọn Olúwa sì fi wọ́n sílẹ̀.
And being angry against them, he went away.
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,
Likewise, the cloud which was over the tabernacle withdrew. And behold, Miriam appeared to be white with a leprosy, like snow. And when Aaron had looked upon her, and he had seen the spreading of the leprosy,
11 Aaroni sì wí fún Mose pé, “Jọ̀wọ́ olúwa mi, má ṣe ka ẹ̀ṣẹ̀, èyí tí a fi ìwà òmùgọ̀ dá sí wa lọ́rùn.
he said to Moses: “I beg you, my lord, not to impose upon us this sin, which we have committed foolishly.
12 Má ṣe jẹ́ kí ó dàbí òkú ọmọ tí a bí, tí ìdajì ara rẹ̀ ti rà dànù.”
Do not let this one be like one who is dead, or like an abortion that has been cast from the womb of her mother. Behold, half of her flesh is already consumed by leprosy.”
13 Torí èyí Mose sì kígbe sí Olúwa, “Ọlọ́run, jọ̀wọ́, mú un láradá!”
And Moses cried out to the Lord, saying, “O God, I beg you: 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.”
And the Lord answered him: “If her father had spit on her face, should she not have been filled with shame for at least seven days? Let her be separated, outside the camp, for seven days, and after that, she will be called back.”
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.
And so Miriam was excluded from the camp for seven days. And the people did not move from that place, until Miriam was called back.
16 Lẹ́yìn èyí, àwọn ènìyàn kúrò ní Haserotu, wọ́n sì pa ibùdó sí aginjù Parani.
And the people set out from Hazeroth, and they pitched their tents in the desert of Paran.
