11. he said to Moses, “Sir, please don't punish us for doing such a foolish thing.
12. Don't let Miriam's flesh rot away like a child born dead!”
13. Moses prayed, “Lord God, please heal her.”
14. But the Lord replied, “Miriam would be disgraced for seven days if her father had punished her by spitting in her face. So make her stay outside the camp for seven days, before coming back.”
15. The people of Israel did not move their camp until Miriam returned seven days later.
16. Then they left Hazeroth and set up camp in the Paran Desert.
