Numbers 12:10 In-Context

8 I will speak to him mouth to mouth, [in] clearness, not in riddles; and he will look at the form of Yahweh. Why were you not afraid to speak against my servant, against Moses?"
9 {And Yahweh became very angry} with them, and he went [away].
10 And the cloud departed from on the tent, and behold, Miriam [was] infected with {a skin disease} white like snow; when Aaron turned toward Miriam, behold, [she was] afflicted with a skin disease.
11 So Aaron said to Moses, "Please, my lord, please do not put on us [this] sin [in] which we were foolish and [in] which we have sinned.
12 Please do not let her be like the dead, whose flesh is half consumed when coming out from the womb of its mother."
