LXX	NEW JERUSALEM
1 και ελαλησεν μαριαμ και ααρων κατα μωυση ενεκεν της γυναικος της αιθιοπισσης ην ελαβεν μωυσης οτι γυναικα αιθιοπισσαν ελαβεν	1 Miriam, and Aaron too, criticised Moses over the Cushite woman he had married. He had indeedmarried a Cushite woman.
2 και ειπαν μη μωυση μονω λελαληκεν κυριος ουχι και ημιν ελαλησεν και ηκουσεν κυριος	2 They said, 'Is Moses the only one through whom Yahweh has spoken? Has he not spoken through ustoo?' Yahweh heard this.
3 και ο ανθρωπος μωυσης πραυς σφοδρα παρα παντας τους ανθρωπους τους οντας επι της γης	3 Now Moses was extremely humble, the humblest man on earth.
4 και ειπεν κυριος παραχρημα προς μωυσην και μαριαμ και ααρων εξελθατε υμεις οι τρεις εις την σκηνην του μαρτυριου και εξηλθον οι τρεις εις την σκηνην του μαρτυριου	4 Suddenly Yahweh said to Moses, Aaron and Miriam, 'Come out, al three of you, to the Tent ofMeeting.' They went, al three of them,
5 και κατεβη κυριος εν στυλω νεφελης και εστη επι της θυρας της σκηνης του μαρτυριου και εκληθησαν ααρων και μαριαμ και εξηλθοσαν αμφοτεροι	5 and Yahweh descended in a pillar of cloud and stood at the entrance of the Tent. He cal ed Aaronand Miriam and they both came forward.
6 και ειπεν προς αυτους ακουσατε των λογων μου εαν γενηται προφητης υμων κυριω εν οραματι αυτω γνωσθησομαι και εν υπνω λαλησω αυτω	6 Yahweh said: Listen to my words! if there is a prophet among you, I reveal myself to him in a vision, I speak to him in a dream.
7 ουχ ουτως ο θεραπων μου μωυσης εν ολω τω οικω μου πιστος εστιν	7 Not so with my servant Moses; to him my whole household is entrusted;
8 στομα κατα στομα λαλησω αυτω εν ειδει και ου δι' αινιγματων και την δοξαν κυριου ειδεν και δια τι ουκ εφοβηθητε καταλαλησαι κατα του θεραποντος μου μωυση	8 to him I speak face to face, plainly and not in riddles, and he sees Yahweh's form. How, then, couldyou dare to criticise my servant Moses?
9 και οργη θυμου κυριου επ' αυτοις και απηλθεν	9 Yahweh's anger was aroused by them. He went away,
10 και η νεφελη απεστη απο της σκηνης και ιδου μαριαμ λεπρωσα ωσει χιων και επεβλεψεν ααρων επι μαριαμ και ιδου λεπρωσα	10 and as soon as the cloud left the Tent, there was Miriam covered with a virulent skin-disease, whiteas snow! Aaron turned to look at her and saw that she had contracted a virulent skin-disease.
11 και ειπεν ααρων προς μωυσην δεομαι κυριε μη συνεπιθη ημιν αμαρτιαν διοτι ηγνοησαμεν καθοτι ημαρτομεν	11 Aaron said to Moses: 'Oh, my Lord, please do not punish us for the sin we have been foolishenough to commit.
12 μη γενηται ωσει ισον θανατω ωσει εκτρωμα εκπορευομενον εκ μητρας μητρος και κατεσθιει το ημισυ των σαρκων αυτης	12 Do not let her be like some monster with its flesh half eaten away when it leaves its mother's womb!'
13 και εβοησεν μωυσης προς κυριον λεγων ο θεος δεομαι σου ιασαι αυτην	13 Moses pleaded with Yahweh. 'O God,' he said, 'I beg you, please heal her!'
14 και ειπεν κυριος προς μωυσην ει ο πατηρ αυτης πτυων ενεπτυσεν εις το προσωπον αυτης ουκ εντραπησεται επτα ημερας αφορισθητω επτα ημερας εξω της παρεμβολης και μετα ταυτα εισελευσεται	14 Yahweh then said to Moses, 'If her father had done no more than spit in her face, would she not beunclean for seven days? Have her shut out of the camp for seven days, and then have her brought in again.'
15 και αφωρισθη μαριαμ εξω της παρεμβολης επτα ημερας και ο λαος ουκ εξηρεν εως εκαθαρισθη μαριαμ	15 Miriam was shut out of the camp for seven days. The people did not set out until she returned.
16 και μετα ταυτα εξηρεν ο λαος εξ ασηρωθ και παρενεβαλον εν τη ερημω του φαραν	16 Then the people moved on from Hazeroth and pitched camp in the desert of Paran.
