1. NOW MIRIAM and Aaron talked against Moses [their brother] because of his Cushite wife, for he had married a Cushite woman.
2. And they said, Has the Lord indeed spoken only by Moses? Has He not spoken also by us? And the Lord heard it.
3. Now the man Moses was very meek (gentle, kind, and humble) or above all the men on the face of the earth.
4. Suddenly the Lord said to Moses, Aaron, and Miriam, Come out, you three, to the Tent of Meeting. And the three of them came out.
5. The Lord came down in a pillar of cloud, and stood at the Tent door and called Aaron and Miriam, and they came forward.
6. And He said, Hear now My words: If there is a prophet among you, I the Lord make Myself known to him in a vision and speak to him in a dream.
