1 - And Miriam speaketh--Aaron also--against Moses concerning the circumstance of the Cushite woman whom he had taken: for a Cushite woman he had taken;

2 - and they say, `Only by Moses hath Jehovah spoken? also by us hath he not spoken?' and Jehovah heareth.

3 - And the man Moses <FI>is<Fi> very humble, more than any of the men who <FI>are<Fi> on the face of the ground.

4 - And Jehovah saith suddenly unto Moses, and unto Aaron, and unto Miriam, `Come out ye three unto the tent of meeting;' and they three come out.

5 - And Jehovah cometh down in the pillar of the cloud, and standeth at the opening of the tent, and calleth Aaron and Miriam, and they come out both of them.

6 - And He saith, `Hear, I pray you, My words: If your prophet is of Jehovah--in an appearance unto him I make Myself known; in a dream I speak with him;

7 - not so My servant Moses; in all My house he <FI>is<Fi> stedfast;

8 - mouth unto mouth I speak with him, and <FI>by<Fi> an appearance, and not in riddles; and the form of Jehovah he beholdeth attentively; and wherefore have ye not been afraid to speak against My servant--against Moses?'

9 - And the anger of Jehovah burneth against them, and He goeth on,

10 - and the cloud hath turned aside from off the tent, and lo, Miriam <FI>is<Fi> leprous as snow; and Aaron turneth unto Miriam, and lo, leprous!

11 - And Aaron saith unto Moses, `O, my lord, I pray thee, lay not upon us sin <FI>in<Fi> which we have been foolish, and <FI>in<Fi> which we have sinned;

12 - let her not, I pray thee, be as <FI>one<Fi> dead, when in his coming out from the womb of his mother--the half of his flesh is consumed.'

13 - And Moses crieth unto Jehovah, saying, `O God, I pray Thee, give, I pray Thee, healing to her.'

14 - And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `And her father had but spat in her face--is she not ashamed seven days? she is shut out seven days at the outside of the camp, and afterwards she is gathered.'

15 - And Miriam is shut out at the outside of the camp seven days, and the people hath not journeyed till Miriam is gathered;

16 - and afterwards have the people journeyed from Hazeroth, and they encamp in the wilderness of Paran.
