Numbers 12

locutaque est Maria et Aaron contra Mosen propter uxorem eius aethiopissam

And Miriam and Aaron spake against Moses because of the Ethiopian woman whom he had married: for he had married an Ethiopian woman.

et dixerunt num per solum Mosen locutus est Dominus nonne et nobis similiter est locutus quod cum audisset Dominus

And they said, Hath the LORD indeed spoken only by Moses? hath he not spoken also by us? And the LORD heard it.

erat enim Moses vir mitissimus super omnes homines qui morabantur in terra

(Now the man Moses was very meek, above all the men which were upon the face of the earth.)

statim locutus est ad eum et ad Aaron et Mariam egredimini vos tantum tres ad tabernaculum foederis cumque fuissent egressi

And the LORD spake suddenly unto Moses, and unto Aaron, and unto Miriam, Come out ye three unto the tabernacle of the congregation. And they three came out.

descendit Dominus in columna nubis et stetit in introitu tabernaculi vocans Aaron et Mariam qui cum issent

And the LORD came down in the pillar of the cloud, and stood in the door of the tabernacle, and called Aaron and Miriam: and they both came forth.

dixit ad eos audite sermones meos si quis fuerit inter vos propheta Domini in visione apparebo ei vel per somnium loquar ad illum

And he said, Hear now my words: If there be a prophet among you, I the LORD will make myself known unto him in a vision, and will speak unto him in a dream.

at non talis servus meus Moses qui in omni domo mea fidelissimus est

My servant Moses is not so, who is faithful in all mine house.

ore enim ad os loquor ei et palam non per enigmata et figuras Dominum videt quare igitur non timuistis detrahere servo meo Mosi

With him will I speak mouth to mouth, even apparently, and not in dark speeches; and the similitude of the LORD shall he behold: wherefore then were ye not afraid to speak against my servant Moses?

iratusque contra eos abiit

And the anger of the LORD was kindled against them; and he departed.

nubes quoque recessit quae erat super tabernaculum et ecce Maria apparuit candens lepra quasi nix cumque respexisset eam Aaron et vidisset perfusam lepra

And the cloud departed from off the tabernacle; and, behold, Miriam became leprous, white as snow: and Aaron looked upon Miriam, and, behold, she was leprous.

ait ad Mosen obsecro domine mi ne inponas nobis hoc peccatum quod stulte commisimus

And Aaron said unto Moses, Alas, my lord, I beseech thee, lay not the sin upon us, wherein we have done foolishly, and wherein we have sinned.

ne fiat haec quasi mortua et ut abortivum quod proicitur de vulva matris suae ecce iam medium carnis eius devoratum est lepra

Let her not be as one dead, of whom the flesh is half consumed when he cometh out of his mother's womb.

clamavitque Moses ad Dominum dicens Deus obsecro sana eam

And Moses cried unto the LORD, saying, Heal her now, O God, I beseech thee.

cui respondit Dominus si pater eius spuisset in faciem illius nonne debuerat saltem septem dierum rubore suffundi separetur septem diebus extra castra et postea revocabitur

And the LORD said unto Moses, If her father had but spit in her face, should she not be ashamed seven days? let her be shut out from the camp seven days, and after that let her be received in again.

exclusa est itaque Maria extra castra septem diebus et populus non est motus de loco illo donec revocata est Maria

And Miriam was shut out from the camp seven days: and the people journeyed not till Miriam was brought in again.

profectus est de Aseroth fixis tentoriis in deserto Pharan

And afterward the people removed from Hazeroth, and pitched in the wilderness of Paran.
