1 And Miriam and Aaron spake against Moses, on account of the Cushite woman whom he had taken,––for, a Cushite woman, had he taken.
2 And they said: Is it, only, and solely, with Moses, that Yahweh hath spoken? With us also, hath he not spoken? And Yahweh heard it.
3 Now, the man Moses, was patient, exceedingly,––above all the sons of earth, who were on the face of the ground.
4 Then said Yahweh, suddenly, unto Moses, and unto Aaron, and unto Miriam, Come out, ye three, unto the tent of meeting. And they three went out. 5 Then Yahweh came down, in a pillar of cloud, and stood at the entrance of the tent,––and called Aaron and Miriam, and they both went forth. 6 Then said he, Hear, I beseech you, my words. When ye have your prophet, As Yahweh, in a vision, will I make myself known, unto him; In a dream, will I speak with him. 7 Not so, my servant Moses,––In all my house, trusty, is he: 8 Mouth to mouth, do I speak with him, And plainly––not in dark sayings, And, the form of Yahweh, doth he discern,––Wherefore, then, were ye not afraid to speak against my servant––against Moses? 9 And the anger of Yahweh kindled upon them, and he departed.
10 And, when, the cloud, removed from off the tent,––lo! Miriam, leprous, like snow! And Aaron turned unto Miriam, and lo! . . . leprous! 11 Then said Aaron unto Moses,––Oh my lord, do not, I beseech thee, lay upon us sin, although we have made ourselves foolish, and although we have sinned. 12 Let her not, I beseech thee, remain like the still–born,––which, when it is born of its mother, the half of its flesh is consumed. 13 Then Moses made outcry unto Yahweh, saying,––O GOD, I beseech thee, grant healing, I beseech thee, unto her. 14 And Yahweh said unto Moses: If, her own father, had, but spat, in her face, would she not have acknowledged the shame for seven days? Let her shut herself up for seven days, outside the camp, and, afterwards, let her be received back. 15 So Miriam shut herself up, outside the camp, for seven days,––and, the people, set not forward, until Miriam had been received back. 16 Then, afterwards, did the people set forward from Hazeroth, and encamped in the desert of Paran.
