Numbers 12:7-12 Common English Bible (CEB)

7. But not with my servant Moses. He has proved to be reliable with all my household.

8. I speak with him face-to-face, visibly, not in riddles. He sees the Lord’s form. So why aren’t you afraid to criticize my servant Moses?"

9. The Lord’s anger blazed against them, and they went back.

10. When the cloud went away from over the tent, Miriam suddenly developed a skin disease flaky like snow. Aaron turned toward Miriam and saw her skin disease.

11. Then Aaron said to Moses, "Oh, my master, please don’t punish us for the sin that we foolishly committed.

12. Please don’t let her be like the stillborn, whose flesh is half eaten as it comes out of the mother’s womb."
