b'Numbers 12:1\\n\\xa0Miriam and Aaron spoke against Moses because of his Cushite wife, for he had married a Cushite woman.\\xa02\\xa0They said, \\u201cIs it true that the Lord has spoken only through Moses? Has He not spoken through us also?\\u201d And the Lord heard it.\\xa03\\xa0Now Moses was a man with no pride, more so than any man on the earth.\\xa04\\xa0At once the Lord said to Moses and Aaron and Miriam, \\u201cYou three come out to the meeting tent.\\u201d So the three of them came out.\\xa05\\xa0Then the Lord came down in a cloud and stood at the door of the meeting tent, and called Aaron and Miriam. When both of them had come near,\\xa06\\xa0the Lord said, \\u201cNow listen to Me. If there is a man who speaks for God among you, I the Lord will make Myself known to him in a special dream. I will speak with him in a dream.\\xa07\\xa0Not so, with My servant Moses. He is faithful in all My house.\\xa08\\xa0With him I speak face to face in ways he understands, and not in ways he does not understand. And he sees what the Lord is like. Why then were you not afraid to speak against My servant Moses?\\u201d \\n\\n9\\xa0The Lord was angry with them, and He left.\\xa010\\xa0When the cloud lifted from over the meeting tent, Miriam had a very bad skin disease. She was as white as snow. Aaron turned toward Miriam and saw that she had a bad skin disease.\\xa011\\xa0Then Aaron said to Moses, \\u201cO, my lord, I beg you. Do not punish us because we have been foolish and have sinned.\\xa012\\xa0Let her not be like one who is dead, whose flesh is half eaten away when he is born!\\u201d\\u2018\\xa013\\xa0And Moses cried to the Lord, saying, \\u201cO God, heal her, I pray!\\u201d\\xa014\\xa0But the Lord said to Moses, \\u201cIf her father had only spit in her face, would she not carry her shame for seven days? Let her be shut up for seven days away from the tents. After that, she may be brought in again.\\u201d\\xa015\\xa0So Miriam was shut up away from the tents for seven days. And the people did not travel on until Miriam was brought in again. \\n\\n16\\xa0The people moved from Hazeroth after that. And they set up their tents in the desert of Paran.\\n\\n\\n--- \\n\\nSend in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/pastor-lucy-paynter/message\\nSupport this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/pastor-lucy-paynter/support'
