< 民数記 12 >

1 モーセはエテオピアの女を娶りたりしがそのエテオピアの女を娶りしをもてミリアムとアロン、モーセを謗れり
Miriam and Aaron spoke against Moses because of the Cushite woman whom he had married; for he had married a Cushite woman.
2 彼等すなはち言けるはヱホバただモーセによりてのみ語りたまはんやまた我等によりても語り給ふにあらずやとヱホバこれを聞たまへり
They said, "Has YHWH indeed spoken only with Moses? Hasn't he spoken also with us?" And YHWH heard it.
3 (モーセはその人と爲温柔なること世の中の諸の人に勝れり)
Now the man Moses was very humble, above all the men who were on the surface of the earth.
4 是に於てヱホバ遽にモーセ、アロン及びミリアムに言たまはく汝等三人集會の幕屋に出きたれと三人すなはち出きたりければ
YHWH spoke suddenly to Moses, to Aaron, and to Miriam, "You three come out to the Tent of Meeting." The three of them came out.
5 ヱホバ雲の柱の中にありて降り幕屋の門に立てアロンとミリアムを呼たまひしがかれら二人進みたれば
YHWH came down in a pillar of cloud, and stood at the door of the Tent, and called Aaron and Miriam; and they both came forward.
6 之に言たまはく汝等わが言を聽け汝らの中にもし預言者あらば我ヱホバ異象において我をこれに知しめまた夢において之と語らん
He said, "Hear now my words. If there is a prophet among you, I YHWH will make myself known to him in a vision. I will speak with him in a dream.
7 わが僕モーセに於ては然らず彼はわが家に忠義なる者なり
My servant Moses is not so. He is faithful in all my house.
8 彼とは我口をもて相語り明かに言ひて隠語を用ひず彼はまたヱホバの形を見るなり然るを汝等なんぞわが僕モーセを謗ることを畏れざるやと
With him I will speak mouth to mouth, even openly, and not in riddles; and he shall see YHWH's form. Why then were you not afraid to speak against my servant, against Moses?"
9 ヱホバかれらに向ひ忿怒を發して去たまへり
The anger of YHWH was kindled against them; and he departed.
10 雲すなはち幕屋をはなれて去ぬその時ミリアムに癩病生じてその身雪のごとく爲りアロン、ミリアムを見かへるに旣に癩病生じをる
The cloud departed from over the Tent; and look, Miriam was leprous, as white as snow. Aaron looked at Miriam, and look, she was leprous.
11 アロン是においてモーセに言けるは嗟わが主よ我等愚なる事をなして罪を犯したれど願くは其罪を我等に蒙らしむる勿れ
Aaron said to Moses, "Oh, my lord, please do not count this sin against us, in which we have done foolishly, and in which we have sinned.
12 彼をして母の胎より肉半分腐れて死て生れいづる者のごとくならしむる勿れ
Let her not, I pray, be as one dead, of whom the flesh is half consumed when he comes out of his mother's womb."
13 モーセすなはちヱホバに呼はりて言ふ嗚呼神よ願くは彼を醫したまへ
Moses cried to YHWH, saying, "Heal her, God, I beg you."
14 ヱホバ、モーセに言たまひけるは彼の父その面に唾する事ありてすら彼は七日の間羞をるべきに非ずや然ば七日の間かれを營の外に禁鎖おきて然る後に歸り入しむべしと
YHWH said to Moses, "If her father had but spit in her face, shouldn't she be ashamed seven days? Let her be shut up outside of the camp seven days, and after that she shall be brought in again."
15 ミリアムはすなはち七日の間營の外に禁鎖られぬ民はミリアムの歸り入るまで途に進まざりき
Miriam was shut up outside of the camp seven days, and the people did not travel until Miriam was brought in again.
16 その後民ハゼロテより進みてバランの曠野に營を張り
Afterward the people traveled from Hazeroth, and camped in the wilderness of Paran.
