The Latin Vulgate VUL
1 Now Miriam and Aaron said evil against Moses, because of the Cushite woman to whom he was married, for he had taken a Cushite woman as his wife.
1
locutaque est Maria et Aaron contra Mosen propter uxorem eius aethiopissam
2 And they said, Have the words of the Lord been given to Moses only? have they not come to us? And the Lord took note of it.
2
et dixerunt num per solum Mosen locutus est Dominus nonne et nobis similiter est locutus quod cum audisset Dominus
3 Now the man Moses was more gentle than any other man on earth.
3
erat enim Moses vir mitissimus super omnes homines qui morabantur in terra
4 And suddenly the Lord said to Moses and Aaron and Miriam, Come out, you three, to the Tent of meeting. And the three of them went out.
4
statim locutus est ad eum et ad Aaron et Mariam egredimini vos tantum tres ad tabernaculum foederis cumque fuissent egressi
5 And the Lord came down in a pillar of cloud, taking his place at the door of the Tent, and made Aaron and Miriam come before him.
5
descendit Dominus in columna nubis et stetit in introitu tabernaculi vocans Aaron et Mariam qui cum issent
6 And he said, Now give ear to my words: if there is a prophet among you I will give him knowledge of myself in a vision and will let my words come to him in a dream.
6
dixit ad eos audite sermones meos si quis fuerit inter vos propheta Domini in visione apparebo ei vel per somnium loquar ad illum
7 My servant Moses is not so; he is true to me in all my house:
7
at non talis servus meus Moses qui in omni domo mea fidelissimus est
8 With him I will have talk mouth to mouth, openly and not in dark sayings; and with his eyes he will see the form of the Lord: why then had you no fear of saying evil against my servant Moses?
8
ore enim ad os loquor ei et palam non per enigmata et figuras Dominum videt quare igitur non timuistis detrahere servo meo Mosi
9 And burning with wrath against them, the Lord went away.
9
iratusque contra eos abiit
10 And the cloud was moved from over the Tent; and straight away Miriam became a leper, as white as snow: and Aaron, looking at Miriam, saw that she was a leper.
10
nubes quoque recessit quae erat super tabernaculum et ecce Maria apparuit candens lepra quasi nix cumque respexisset eam Aaron et vidisset perfusam lepra
11 Then Aaron said to Moses, O my lord, let not our sin be on our heads, for we have done foolishly and are sinners.
11
ait ad Mosen obsecro domine mi ne inponas nobis hoc peccatum quod stulte commisimus
12 Let her not be as one dead, whose flesh is half wasted when he comes out from the body of his mother.
12
ne fiat haec quasi mortua et ut abortivum quod proicitur de vulva matris suae ecce iam medium carnis eius devoratum est lepra
13 And Moses, crying to the Lord, said, Let my prayer come before you, O God, and make her well.
13
clamavitque Moses ad Dominum dicens Deus obsecro sana eam
14 And the Lord said to Moses, If her father had put a mark of shame on her, would she not be shamed for seven days? Let her be shut up outside the tent-circle for seven days, and after that she may come in again.
14
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
15 So Miriam was shut up outside the tent-circle for seven days: and the people did not go forward on their journey till Miriam had come in again.
15
exclusa est itaque Maria extra castra septem diebus et populus non est motus de loco illo donec revocata est Maria
16 After that, the people went on from Hazeroth and put up their tents in the waste land of Paran.
