Numbers 12:5-8

^{Tools
5} Then the Lord descended in a pillar of cloud,^(A) stood at the entrance to the tent, and summoned Aaron and Miriam. When the two of them came forward, ^{Tools
6} He said:

“Listen to what I say:
If there is a prophet among you from the Lord,
I make Myself known to him in a vision;^(B)
I speak with him in a dream.

^{Tools
7}

Not so with My servant Moses;
he is faithful in^(a) all My household.^(C)

^{Tools
8}

I speak with him^(D) directly,^(b)
openly, and not in riddles;
he sees the form of the Lord.^(E)

So why were you not afraid to speak against My servant Moses?”
