* And Miriam and Aaron spoke against Moses because of the Ethiopian woman whom he had taken ; for he had taken a Cushite as wife . * And they said , Has Jehovah indeed spoken only to Moses ? has he not spoken also to us ? And Jehovah heard it . * But the man Moses was very meek , above all men that were upon the face of the earth . * Then Jehovah spoke suddenly to Moses , and to Aaron , and to Miriam , Come out ye three unto the tent of meeting . And they went out , they three . * And Jehovah came down in the pillar of the cloud , and stood at the entrance of the tent , and called Aaron and Miriam ; and they both came forth . * And he said , Hear now my words : If there be a prophet among you , I Jehovah will make myself known to him in a vision , I will speak to him in a dream . * Not so my servant Moses : he is faithful in all my house . * Mouth to mouth do I speak to him openly , and not in riddles ; and the form of Jehovah doth he behold . Why then were ye not afraid to speak against my servant , against Moses ? * And the anger of Jehovah was kindled against them , and he went away ; * and the cloud departed from off the tent . And behold , Miriam was leprous as snow ; and Aaron turned toward Miriam , and behold , she was leprous . * Then Aaron said to Moses , Alas , my lord , I beseech thee , lay not this sin upon us , wherein we have been foolish , and have sinned ! * Let her not be as one stillborn , half of whose flesh is consumed when he comes out of his mother 's womb . * And Moses cried to Jehovah , saying , O �God , heal her , I beseech thee ! * And Jehovah said to Moses , But had her father anyways spat in her face , should she not be shamed seven days ? She shall be shut outside the camp seven days , and afterwards she shall be received in [again ]. * And Miriam was shut outside the camp seven days ; and the people did not journey till Miriam was received in [again ]. * And afterwards the people journeyed from Hazeroth , and encamped in the wilderness of Paran .
