^(C1)and they said, "Is it a fact that the LORD has spoken only through Moses? Has He not spoken through us as well?" And the LORD heard this.

(Now the man Moses was ^(C1)very humble, more than any person who was on the face of the earth.)

And the LORD suddenly said to Moses and to Aaron and Miriam, "You three go out to the tent of meeting." So the three of them went out.

He said, "Now hear My words: If there is a prophet among you, I, the LORD, will make Myself known to him in a ^(C1)vision. I will speak with him in a ^(C2)dream.

-"It is not this way for ^(C1)My servant Moses; ^(C2)He is faithful in all My household;

^(C1)With him I speak mouth to mouth, That is, openly, and not ^(F1)using ^(F2)mysterious language, And he beholds ^(C2)the form of the LORD. So why were you not afraid To speak against My servant, against Moses?"
