Then Miriam and Aaron spoke against Moses because of the Cushite woman whom he had married (for he had married a ^aCushite woman); 2 ^aand they said, “Has the LORD indeed spoken only through Moses? Has He not spoken through us as well?” And the LORD heard it. 3 (Now the man Moses was ^avery humble, more than any man who was on the face of the earth.) 4 Suddenly the LORD said to Moses and Aaron and to Miriam, “You three come out to the tent of meeting.” So the three of them came out. 5 ^aThen the LORD came down in a pillar of cloud and stood at the doorway of the tent, and He called ¹Aaron and Miriam. When they had both come forward, 6 He said,“Hear now My words:If there is a prophet among you,I, the LORD, shall make Myself known to him in a ^avision.I shall speak with him in a ^bdream.

9 So the anger of the LORD burned against them and ^aHe departed. 10 But when the cloud had withdrawn from over the tent, behold, ^aMiriam was leprous, as ^bwhite as snow. As Aaron turned toward Miriam, behold, she was leprous. 11 Then Aaron said to Moses, “Oh, my lord, I beg you, ^ado not account this sin to us, in which we have acted foolishly and in which we have sinned. 12 Oh, do not let her be like one dead, whose flesh is half eaten away when he comes from his mother’s womb!” 13 Moses cried out to the LORD, saying, “O God, ^aheal her, I pray!” 14 But the LORD said to Moses, “If her father had but ^aspit in her face, would she not bear her shame for seven days? Let her be shut up for seven days ^boutside the camp, and afterward she may be received again.” 15 So ^aMiriam was shut up outside the camp for seven days, and the people did not move on until Miriam was received again.

16 Afterward, however, the people moved out from Hazeroth and camped in the wilderness of Paran.

Then Miriam and Aaron spoke against Moses because of the Cushite woman whom he had married (for he had married a ^aCushite woman); 2 ^aand they said, “Is it a fact that the LORD has spoken only through Moses? Has He not spoken through us as well?” And the LORD heard this. 3 (Now the man Moses was ^avery humble, more than any person who was on the face of the earth.) 4 And the LORD suddenly said to Moses and to Aaron and Miriam, “You three go out to the tent of meeting.” So the three of them went out. 5 ^aThen the LORD came down in a pillar of cloud and stood at the entrance of the tent; and He called Aaron and Miriam. When they had both come forward, 6 He said,“Now hear My words:If there is a prophet among you,I, the LORD, will make Myself known to him in a ^avision.I will speak with him in a ^bdream.

9 And the anger of the LORD burned against them and ^aHe departed. 10 But when the cloud had withdrawn from above the tent, behold, ^aMiriam was leprous, as ^bwhite as snow. As Aaron turned toward Miriam, behold, she was leprous. 11 Then Aaron said to Moses, “Oh, my lord, I beg you, ^ado not ¹hold us responsible for this sin by which we have turned out to be foolish, and by which we have sinned. 12 Oh, do not let her be like a dead person, whose flesh is half eaten away when he comes out of his mother’s womb!” 13 So Moses cried out to the LORD, saying, “God, ^aheal her, please!” 14 But the LORD said to Moses, “If her father had only ^aspit in her face, would she not be put to shame for seven days? Have her shut ^boutside the camp for seven days, and afterward she may be received again.” 15 So ^aMiriam was shut outside the camp for seven days, and the people did not move on until Miriam was received again.

16 Afterward, however, the people moved on from Hazeroth and camped in the wilderness of Paran.

Then Miriam and Aaron spoke against Moses because of the Cushite woman whom he had taken as a wife (for he had taken a ^aCushite woman); 2 ^aand they said, “Has Yahweh indeed spoken only through Moses? Has He not spoken through us as well?” And Yahweh heard it. 3 (Now the man Moses was ^avery humble, more than any man who was on the face of the earth.) 4 Suddenly Yahweh said to Moses and Aaron and to Miriam, “You three come out to the tent of meeting.” So the three of them came out. 5 ^aThen Yahweh came down in a pillar of cloud and stood at the doorway of the tent, and He called ¹Aaron and Miriam. And then both came forward, 6 and He said,“Hear now My words:If there is a prophet among you,I, Yahweh, shall make Myself known to him in a ^avision.I shall speak with him in a ^bdream.

9 So the anger of Yahweh burned against them, and ^aHe went away. 10 But the cloud withdrew from over the tent, and behold, ^aMiriam was leprous, as ^bwhite as snow. And Aaron turned toward Miriam, and behold, she was leprous. 11 Then Aaron said to Moses, “Oh, my lord, I beg you, ^ado not place this sin on us, in which we have acted foolishly and in which we have sinned. 12 Oh, do not let her be like one dead, whose flesh is half eaten away when he comes from his mother’s womb!” 13 And Moses cried out to Yahweh, saying, “O God, ^aheal her, I pray!” 14 But Yahweh said to Moses, “If her father had but ^aspit in her face, would she not bear her dishonor for seven days? Let her be shut up for seven days ^boutside the camp, and afterward she may be received again.” 15 So ^aMiriam was shut up outside the camp for seven days, and the people did not set out until Miriam was received again.

16 Afterward, however, the people set out from Hazeroth and camped in the wilderness of Paran.
