Numbers 12

Common English Bible CEB

1 When they were in Hazeroth, Miriam and Aaron criticized Moses on account of the Cushite woman whom he had married—for he had married a Cushite woman.

2 They said, "Has the LORD spoken only through Moses? Hasn't he also spoken through us?" The LORD heard it.

3 Now the man Moses was humble, more so than anyone on earth.

4 Immediately, the LORD said to Moses, Aaron, and Miriam, "You three go out to the meeting tent." So the three of them went out.

5 Then the LORD descended in a column of cloud, stood at the entrance of the tent, and called to Aaron and Miriam. The two of them came forward.

6 He said, "Listen to my words: If there is a prophet of the LORD among you, I make myself known to him in visions. I speak to him in dreams.

7 But not with my servant Moses. He has proved to be reliable with all my household.

8 I speak with him face-to-face, visibly, not in riddles. He sees the LORD's form. So why aren't you afraid to criticize my servant Moses?"

9 The LORD's anger blazed against them, and they went back.

10 When the cloud went away from over the tent, Miriam suddenly developed a skin disease flaky like snow. Aaron turned toward Miriam and saw her skin disease.

11 Then Aaron said to Moses, "Oh, my master, please don't punish us for the sin that we foolishly committed.

12 Please don't let her be like the stillborn, whose flesh is half eaten as it comes out of the mother's womb."

13 So Moses cried to the LORD, "God, please heal her!"

14 The LORD said to Moses, "If her father had spit in her face, would she not be shamed for seven days? Let her be shut out of the camp for seven days, and afterward she will be brought back."

15 So they shut Miriam out of the camp seven days. And the people didn't march until Miriam was brought back.

16 Afterward the people marched from Hazeroth, and they camped in the Paran desert.

English Standard Version ESV

1 Miriam and Aaron spoke against Moses because of the Cushite woman whom he had married, for he had married a Cushite woman.

2 And they said, “Has the Lord indeed spoken only through Moses? Has he not spoken through us also? ” And the Lord heard it.

3 Now the man Moses was very meek, more than all people who were on the face of the earth.

4 And suddenly the Lord said to Moses and to Aaron and Miriam, “Come out, you three, to the tent of meeting. ” And the three of them came out.

5 And the Lord came down in a pillar of cloud and stood at the entrance of the tent and called Aaron and Miriam, and they both came forward.

6 And he said, “Hear my words: If there is a prophet among you, I the Lord make myself known to him in a vision; I speak with him in a dream.

7 Not so with my servant Moses. He is faithful in all my house.

8 With him I speak mouth to mouth, clearly, and not in riddles, and he beholds the form of the Lord. Why then were you not afraid to speak against my servant Moses? ”

9 And the anger of the Lord was kindled against them, and he departed.

10 When the cloud removed from over the tent, behold, Miriam was leprous, like snow. And Aaron turned toward Miriam, and behold, she was leprous.

11 And Aaron said to Moses, “Oh, my lord, do not punish us because we have done foolishly and have sinned.

12 Let her not be as one dead, whose flesh is half eaten away when he comes out of his mother’s womb. ”

13 And Moses cried to the Lord, “O God, please heal her—please. ”

14 But the Lord said to Moses, “If her father had but spit in her face, should she not be shamed seven days? Let her be shut outside the camp seven days, and after that she may be brought in again. ”

15 So Miriam was shut outside the camp seven days, and the people did not set out on the march till Miriam was brought in again.

16 After that the people set out from Hazeroth, and camped in the wilderness of Paran.
