Dissension of Aaron and Miriam

1 Then aMiriam and Aaron spoke bagainst Moses because of the Ethiopian woman whom he had married; for che had married an Ethiopian woman.  
2 So they said, “Has the Lord indeed spoken only through aMoses? bHas He not spoken through us also?” And the Lord cheard it.  
3 (Now the man Moses was very humble, more than all men who were on the face of the earth.)
4 aSuddenly the Lord said to Moses, Aaron, and Miriam, “Come out, you three, to the tabernacle of meeting!” So the three came out.  
5 aThen the Lord came down in the pillar of cloud and stood in the door of the tabernacle, and called Aaron and Miriam. And they both went forward.  
6 Then He said,
“Hear now My words:
If there is a prophet among you,
I, the Lord, make Myself known to him ain a vision;
I speak to him bin a dream. 
7 Not so with aMy servant Moses;
bHe is faithful in all cMy house. 
8 I speak with him aface to face,
Even bplainly, and not in dark sayings;
And he sees cthe form of the Lord.
Why then dwere you not afraid
To speak against My servant Moses?”  
9 So the anger of the Lord was aroused against them, and He departed.
10 And when the cloud departed from above the tabernacle, asuddenly Miriam became bleprous, as white as snow. Then Aaron turned toward Miriam, and there she was, a leper.  
11 So Aaron said to Moses, “Oh, my lord! Please ado not lay this sin on us, in which we have done foolishly and in which we have sinned.
