Numbers 12:7-16 ▼

7 But this is not so with My servant Moses; he is faithful in all My house.

8 I speak with him face to face, clearly and not in riddles; he sees the form of the LORD. Why then were you unafraid to speak against My servant Moses?”

9 So the anger of the LORD burned against them, and He departed.

10 As the cloud lifted from above the Tent, suddenly Miriam became leprous, white as snow. Aaron turned toward her, saw that she was leprous,

11 and said to Moses, “My lord, please do not hold against us this sin we have so foolishly committed.

12 Please do not let her be like a stillborn infant whose flesh is half consumed when he comes out of his mother’s womb.”

13 So Moses cried out to the LORD, “O God, please heal her!”

14 But the LORD answered Moses, “If her father had but spit in her face, would she not have been in disgrace for seven days? Let her be confined outside the camp for seven days; after that she may be brought back in.”

15 So Miriam was confined outside the camp for seven days, and the people did not move on until she was brought in again.

16 After that, the people set out from Hazeroth and camped in the Wilderness of Paran.
