Numbers 12:6-8
New International Version
6 he said, “Listen to my words:
“When there is a prophet among you,
I, the Lord, reveal(A) myself to them in visions,(B)
I speak to them in dreams.(C)
7 But this is not true of my servant Moses;(D)
he is faithful in all my house.(E)
8 With him I speak face to face,
clearly and not in riddles;(F)
he sees the form of the Lord.(G)
Why then were you not afraid
to speak against my servant Moses?”(H)
Numbers 12:6-8
King James Version
6 And he said, Hear now my words: If there be a prophet among you, I the Lord will make myself known unto him in a vision, and will speak unto him in a dream.
7 My servant Moses is not so, who is faithful in all mine house.
8 With him will I speak mouth to mouth, even apparently, and not in dark speeches; and the similitude of the Lord shall he behold: wherefore then were ye not afraid to speak against my servant Moses?

Numbers 12:6-8
New American Standard Bible
6 He said,
“Now hear My words:
If there is a prophet among you,
I, the Lord, will make Myself known to him in a (A)vision.
I will speak with him in a (B)dream.
7 It is not this way for (C)My servant Moses;
(D)He is faithful in all My household;
8 (E)With him I speak mouth to mouth,
That is, openly, and not [a]using [b]mysterious language,
And he beholds (F)the form of the Lord.
So why were you not afraid
To speak against My servant, against Moses?”
