اَلْخُرُوجُ 17
| ثُمَّ ٱرْتَحَلَ كُلُّ جَمَاعَةِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ بَرِّيَّةِ سِينٍ بِحَسَبِ مَرَاحِلِهِمْ عَلَى مُوجِبِ أَمْرِ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَنَزَلُوا فِي رَفِيدِيمَ. وَلَمْ يَكُنْ مَاءٌ لِيَشْرَبَ ٱلشَّعْبُ. | ١ 1 |
All the congregation of the children of Israel traveled from the wilderness of Sin, starting according to Yahweh’s commandment, and encamped in Rephidim; but there was no water for the people to drink.
| فَخَاصَمَ ٱلشَّعْبُ مُوسَى وَقَالُوا: «أَعْطُونَا مَاءً لِنَشْرَبَ». فَقَالَ لَهُمْ مُوسَى: «لِمَاذَا تُخَاصِمُونَنِي؟ لِمَاذَا تُجَرِّبُونَ ٱلرَّبَّ؟» | ٢ 2 |
Therefore the people quarreled with Moses, and said, “Give us water to drink.” Moses said to them, “Why do you quarrel with me? Why do you test Yahweh?”
| وَعَطِشَ هُنَاكَ ٱلشَّعْبُ إِلَى ٱلْمَاءِ، وَتَذَمَّرَ ٱلشَّعْبُ عَلَى مُوسَى وَقَالُوا: «لِمَاذَا أَصْعَدْتَنَا مِنْ مِصْرَ لِتُمِيتَنَا وَأَوْلَادَنَا وَمَوَاشِيَنَا بِٱلْعَطَشِ؟» | ٣ 3 |
The people were thirsty for water there; so the people murmured against Moses, and said, “Why have you brought us up out of Egypt, to kill us, our children, and our livestock with thirst?”
| فَصَرَخَ مُوسَى إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا: «مَاذَا أَفْعَلُ بِهَذَا ٱلشَّعْبِ؟ بَعْدَ قَلِيلٍ يَرْجُمُونَنِي». | ٤ 4 |
Moses cried to Yahweh, saying, “What shall I do with these people? They are almost ready to stone me.”
| فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «مُرَّ قُدَّامَ ٱلشَّعْبِ، وَخُذْ مَعَكَ مِنْ شُيُوخِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. وَعَصَاكَ ٱلَّتِي ضَرَبْتَ بِهَا ٱلنَّهْرَ خُذْهَا فِي يَدِكَ وَٱذْهَبْ. | ٥ 5 |
Yahweh said to Moses, “Walk on before the people, and take the elders of Israel with you, and take the rod in your hand with which you struck the Nile, and go.
| هَا أَنَا أَقِفُ أَمَامَكَ هُنَاكَ عَلَى ٱلصَّخْرَةِ فِي حُورِيبَ، فَتَضْرِبُ ٱلصَّخْرَةَ فَيَخْرُجُ مِنْهَا مَاءٌ لِيَشْرَبَ ٱلشَّعْبُ». فَفَعَلَ مُوسَى هَكَذَا أَمَامَ عُيُونِ شُيُوخِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٦ 6 |
Behold, I will stand before you there on the rock in Horeb. You shall strike the rock, and water will come out of it, that the people may drink.” Moses did so in the sight of the elders of Israel.
| وَدَعَا ٱسْمَ ٱلْمَوْضِعِ «مَسَّةَ وَمَرِيبَةَ» مِنْ أَجْلِ مُخَاصَمَةِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَمِنْ أَجْلِ تَجْرِبَتِهِمْ لِلرَّبِّ قَائِلِينَ: «أَفِي وَسَطِنَا ٱلرَّبُّ أَمْ لَا؟». | ٧ 7 |
He called the name of the place Massah, and Meribah, because the children of Israel quarreled, and because they tested Yahweh, saying, “Is Yahweh among us, or not?”
| وَأَتَى عَمَالِيقُ وَحَارَبَ إِسْرَائِيلَ فِي رَفِيدِيمَ. | ٨ 8 |
Then Amalek came and fought with Israel in Rephidim.
| فَقَالَ مُوسَى لِيَشُوعَ: «ٱنْتَخِبْ لَنَا رِجَالًا وَٱخْرُجْ حَارِبْ عَمَالِيقَ. وَغَدًا أَقِفُ أَنَا عَلَى رَأْسِ ٱلتَّلَّةِ وَعَصَا ٱللهِ فِي يَدِي». | ٩ 9 |
Moses said to Joshua, “Choose men for us, and go out to fight with Amalek. Tomorrow I will stand on the top of the hill with God’s rod in my hand.”
| فَفَعَلَ يَشُوعُ كَمَا قَالَ لَهُ مُوسَى لِيُحَارِبَ عَمَالِيقَ. وَأَمَّا مُوسَى وَهَارُونُ وَحُورُ فَصَعِدُوا عَلَى رَأْسِ ٱلتَّلَّةِ. | ١٠ 10 |
So Joshua did as Moses had told him, and fought with Amalek; and Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to the top of the hill.
| وَكَانَ إِذَا رَفَعَ مُوسَى يَدَهُ أَنَّ إِسْرَائِيلَ يَغْلِبُ، وَإِذَا خَفَضَ يَدَهُ أَنَّ عَمَالِيقَ يَغْلِبُ. | ١١ 11 |
When Moses held up his hand, Israel prevailed. When he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed.
| فَلَمَّا صَارَتْ يَدَا مُوسَى ثَقِيلَتَيْنِ، أَخَذَا حَجَرًا وَوَضَعَاهُ تَحْتَهُ فَجَلَسَ عَلَيْهِ. وَدَعَمَ هَارُونُ وَحُورُ يَدَيْهِ، ٱلْوَاحِدُ مِنْ هُنَا وَٱلْآخَرُ مِنْ هُنَاكَ. فَكَانَتْ يَدَاهُ ثَابِتَتَيْنِ إِلَى غُرُوبِ ٱلشَّمْسِ. | ١٢ 12 |
But Moses’ hands were heavy; so they took a stone, and put it under him, and he sat on it. Aaron and Hur held up his hands, the one on the one side, and the other on the other side. His hands were steady until sunset.
| فَهَزَمَ يَشُوعُ عَمَالِيقَ وَقَوْمَهُ بِحَدِّ ٱلسَّيْفِ. | ١٣ 13 |
Joshua defeated Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword.
| فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «ٱكْتُبْ هَذَا تَذْكَارًا فِي ٱلْكِتَابِ، وَضَعْهُ فِي مَسَامِعِ يَشُوعَ. فَإِنِّي سَوْفَ أَمْحُو ذِكْرَ عَمَالِيقَ مِنْ تَحْتِ ٱلسَّمَاءِ». | ١٤ 14 |
Yahweh said to Moses, “Write this for a memorial in a book, and rehearse it in the ears of Joshua: that I will utterly blot out the memory of Amalek from under the sky.”
| فَبَنَى مُوسَى مَذْبَحًا وَدَعَا ٱسْمَهُ «يَهْوَهْ نِسِّي». | ١٥ 15 |
Moses built an altar, and called its name “Yahweh our Banner”.
| وَقَالَ: «إِنَّ ٱلْيَدَ عَلَى كُرْسِيِّ ٱلرَّبِّ. لِلرَّبِّ حَرْبٌ مَعَ عَمَالِيقَ مِنْ دَوْرٍ إِلَى دَوْرٍ». | ١٦ 16 |
He said, “Yah has sworn: ‘Yahweh will have war with Amalek from generation to generation.’”
