1Then Miriam <04813> and Aaron <0175> spoke <01696> against <05921> Moses <04872> because <0182> of the Cushite <03569> woman <0802> he had married <03947> (for <03588> he had married <03947> an Ethiopian <03569> woman <0802>).
2They said <0559>, “Has the Lord <03068> only <0389> <07535> spoken <01696> through Moses <04872>? Has he not <03808> also <01571> spoken <01696> through us?” And the Lord <03068> heard <08085> it.
3(Now the man <0376> Moses <04872> was very <03966> humble <06035>, more so than any <03605> man <0120> on <05921> the face <06440> of the earth <0127>.)
4The Lord <03068> spoke <0559> immediately <06597> to <0413> Moses <04872>, Aaron <0175>, and Miriam <04813>: “The three <07969> of you come to <0413> the tent <0168> of meeting <04150>.” So the three <07969> of them went <03318>.
5And the Lord <03068> came down <03381> in a pillar <05982> of cloud <06051> and stood <05975> at the entrance <06607> of the tent <0168>; he then called <07121> Aaron <0175> and Miriam <04813>, and they both <08147> came forward <03318>.
6The Lord said <0559>, “Hear <08085> now <04994> my words <01697>: If <0518> there is <01961> a prophet <05030> among you, I the Lord <03068> will make <03045> myself known <03045> to <0413> him in a vision <04759>; I will speak <01696> with him in a dream <02472>.
7My servant <05650> Moses <04872> is not <03808> like this <03651>; he is faithful <0539> in all <03605> my house <01004>.
8With <0413> him I will speak <01696> face <06310> to face <06310>, openly <04758>, and not <03808> in riddles <02420>; and he will see <05027> the form <08544> of the Lord <03068>. Why <04069> then were you not <03808> afraid <03372> to speak <01696> against my servant <05650> Moses <04872>?”
9The anger <0639> of the Lord <03069> burned <02734> against them, and he departed <01980>.
10When the cloud <06051> departed <05493> from above <05921> the tent <0168>, Miriam <04813> became leprous <06879> as snow <07950>. Then Aaron <0175> looked <06437> at <0413> Miriam <04813>, and she was leprous <06879>!
11So Aaron <0175> said <0559> to <0413> Moses <04872>, “O <0994> my lord <0113>, please <04994> do not <0408> hold <07896> this sin <02403> against <05921> us, in which <0834> we have acted foolishly <02973> and have sinned <02398>!
12Do <04994> not <0408> let <04994> her be <01961> like a baby born dead <04191>, whose <0834> flesh <01320> is half-consumed <02677> <0398> when it comes out <03318> of its mother’s <0517> womb <07358>!”
13Then Moses <04872> cried <06817> to <0413> the Lord <03068>, “Heal <07495> her now <04994>, O God <0410>.”
14The Lord <03068> said <0559> to <0413> Moses <04872>, “If her father <01> had only spit <03417> in her face <06440>, would she not <03808> have been disgraced <03637> for seven <07651> days <03117>? Shut <05462> her out <02351> from the camp <04264> seven <07651> days <03117>, and afterward <0310> she can be brought back <0622> in again.”
15So Miriam <04813> was shut <05462> outside <02351> of the camp <04264> for seven <07651> days <03117>, and the people <05971> did not <03808> journey <05265> on until <05704> Miriam <04813> was brought <0622> back in.
16After <0310> that the people <05971> moved <05265> from Hazeroth <02698> and camped <02583> in the wilderness <04057> of Paran <06290>.
