10And when the cloud departed from above the tabernacle, suddenly Miriam became leprous, as white as snow. Then Aaron turned toward Miriam, and there she was, a leper.

12Please do not let her be as one dead, whose flesh is half consumed when he comes out of his mother’s womb!”

12Please don't let her be like a dead baby whose flesh is half eaten away when he comes out of his mother's womb."

13So Moses cried out to the LORD, saying, “Please heal her, O God, I pray!”

13Then Moses cried out to the LORD, "God, please heal her!"

14Then the LORD said to Moses, “If her father had but spit in her face, would she not be shamed seven days? Let her be shut out of the camp seven days, and afterward she may be received again.”
