Numbers 12
12
CHAPTER 12
1And Marie spake and Aaron against Moses, for his wife a woman of Ethiopia,
2and they said, Whether God spake his will only by Moses? whether he spake not also to us in like manner? And when the Lord had heard this, he was wroth greatly;
3for Moses was the mildest man, over all men that dwelled in earth.
4And suddenly the Lord spake to Moses and to Aaron and to Marie, Go out ye three alone to the tabernacle of the bond of peace. And when they were gone in,
5the Lord came down in a pillar of cloud, and he stood in the entering of the tabernacle, and called Aaron and Marie. And when they had gone forth,
6he said to them, Hear ye my words; if any among you is a prophet of the Lord, I shall appear to him in revelation, either I shall speak to him by a dream.
7And he said, And my servant Moses is not such, the which is most faithful in all mine house;
8for I speak to him mouth to mouth, and he seeth God openly, and not by dark speeches, either dark likenesses, and figures. Why therefore dreaded ye not to backbite my servant Moses?
9And the Lord was wroth against them, and he went away.
10And the cloud went away, that was on the tabernacle, and lo! Marie appeared shining with leprosy, white as snow. And when Aaron beheld her, and saw her besprinkled with leprosy,
11he said to Moses, My lord, I beseech thee, put thou not this sin upon us, which we did follily,
12that this woman be not made as dead, and as a dead-born thing that is cast out of the mother’s womb; lo! now the half of her flesh is devoured, or over-covered, with leprosy.
13And Moses cried to the Lord, and said, Lord, I beseech thee, heal thou her.
14To whom the Lord answered, If her father had spit into her face, whether she ought not to be full-filled with shame, namely seven days? Therefore be she separated out of the tents by seven days, and afterward she shall be called again.
15And so Marie was excluded or put out of the tents by seven days; and the people was not moved from that place, till Marie was called again.
16And the people went forth from Hazeroth, when the tents were set in the desert of Paran.
