Numbers 12
UMiriyemu Lo-Aroni Baphikisa UMosi
1UMiriyemu lo-Aroni basuka basebeqalisa ukusola uMosi ngenxa yomkakhe ongumKhushi, njengoba wayethethe umKhushi. 2Babuzana bathi: “Kambe uMosi nguye yedwa ongumlomo kaThixo na? Kanti lathi kazange asenze izikhulumeli zakhe na?” UThixo wakuzwa lokhu.3(UMosi wayeyindoda ethobeke kakhulu, ethobeke ukwedlula wonke amadoda asemhlabeni.)
4Khonokho nje uThixo wathi kuMosi, u-Aroni loMiriyemu, “Phumani lize ethenteni lokuhlangana, lonke lobathathu.” Lakanye beza bobathathu. 5UThixo wehla ngensika yeyezi; wema esangweni lethente wasebiza u-Aroni loMiriyemu. Kwathi lapho sebesondele bobabili, 6uThixo wasesithi, “Lalelani amazwi ami:
Nxa kulomphrofethi kaThixo phakathi kwenu,
ngiziveza kuye ngemibono,
ngikhuluma laye emaphutsheni.
7Kodwa akunjalo ngenceku yami uMosi;
uthembekile endlini yami yonke.
8Nxa ngikhuluma laye siqondana ubuso ngobuso,
ngokucacileyo kungesikuphicana;
uyasibona isimo sikaThixo.
Kungani pho belingesabi
ukusola inceku yami uMosi na?”
9Ulaka lukaThixo lwavutha phezu kwabo, uThixo wasesuka kubo.
10Ekusukeni kweyezi phezu kwethente, kwabonakala uMiriyemu esemi lapho eselobulephero obunjengongqwaqwane. U-Aroni uthe emkhangela wambona eselobulephero; 11wasesithi kuMosi, “Awu, nkosi yami, ungasibeki icala ngenxa yesono esisenze ngobuwula. 12Ungamyekeli enjengomntwana ozelwe efile, inyama yakhe idliwe nganxanye.”
13Ngakho uMosi wakhala kuThixo wathi, “Nkulunkulu, ngiyakucela, msilise.”
14 UThixo waphendula uMosi wathi, “Kambe ngabe uyise ubemkhafulele ebusweni, ubengayikuthwala ihlazo okwensuku eziyisikhombisa na? Mkhupheni ahlale ngaphandle kwezihonqo okwensuku eziyisikhombisa; ngemva kwalokho selingambuyisa.” 15Ngakho uMiriyemu wahlaliswa ngaphandle kwezihonqo okwensuku eziyisikhombisa, ngakho abantu kabaqhubekanga ngohambo waze waphenduka.
16Ngemva kwalokho, abantu basuka eHazerothi bayamisa izihonqo enkangala yasePharani.
