And all the congregation of the children of Israel departed from the wilderness of Sin, according to their encampments, by the word of the Lord; and they encamped in Raphidin: and there was no water for the people to drink.
2 Mipi jong Mose heng'a avel lin a phunchel kit tauvin, “Don ding twi neipe uvin,” ati tauve. Mose'n a donbut in ajah uva, “Ipi ding'a kei koma ki phin'a na hiuvem? Chule ipi ding'a nang hon Pakai na patep u ham?”
And the people reviled Moses, saying, Give us water, that we may drink; and Moses said to them, Why do you revile me, and why tempt you the Lord?
3 Mipihon twi angaicha jing uvin Mose dounan thu aseijun akiphin gam tauvin, “Ipi ding'a Egypt gamsung'a kon'na nei hin puidoh mong mong'u hitam? Nangman keiho le, ka chate'u chule ka gan chate'u ka boncha uva dangchah'a thigam sah ding nei got uva hitam?” tin asei uve.
And the people thirsted there for water, and there the people murmured against Moses, saying, Why is this? have you brought us up out of Egypt to kill us and our children and our cattle with thirst?
4 Chuin Mose jong Pathen heng'a kap pum'in ataovin, “Hiche miteho ding'a ipi kabol ding hitam? Song'a selih ding eigo tauve,” ati.
And Moses cried to the Lord, saying, What shall I do to this people? yet a little while and they will stone me.
5 “Chuin Pakaiyin Mose heng'a aseijin, “Mipiho ma'sang a konchun ki khen doh tem'in chule Nile vadung San najepna tenggol chu kichoiyin lang Israel upa ho phabep kipuijin.”
And the Lord said to Moses, Go before this people, and take to yourself of the elders of the people; and the rod with which you struck the river, take in your hand, and you shall go.
6 “Keiman Sinai molsang songpi chungvum'ma ka dinpi ding nahiye, chuteng songpi chu jep lechun twi hung kikho doh jeng ding, Israel miten adon thei diu ahitai,” ati.
Behold, I stand there before you [come], on the rock in Choreb, and you shall strike the rock, and water shall come out from it, and the people shall drink. And Moses did so before the sons of Israel.
7 Mose'n jong hiche mun chu Massah asah tan ahi (hichu ‘patepna’ tia kihe ahi) Chule Maribah (hichu ‘ki khoh doh’ tina ahi) ajeh chu Isreal mite Mose heng'a aphunchil uva, Pakai doumah jing asei doh uvin, “Na Pakaiyin keiho hikoma hi ei umpi mong uva hinam?” atiuvin ahi.
And he called the name of that place, Temptation, and Reviling, because of the reviling of the children of Israel, and because they tempted the Lord, saying, Is the Lord among us or not?
8 Israel mite Rephidim mun aum jinglai yun, Amalek mite ahung kon uvin akisat petauve.
And Amalec came and fought with Israel in Raphidin.
9 Chuin Mose'n jong Joshua heng'a thupeh aneiyin, “Amalek mite toh kisat ding pasal galsat ding phabep khat lheng doh tem'in. Jing nikho le keima gamlah molsang'a ka din ding hichea chu Pathen bantha hat ka dopsang'a ka pan ding ahi,” ati.
And Moses said to Joshua, Choose out for yourself mighty men, and go forth and set the army in array against Amalec to-morrow; and, behold, I [shall] stand on the top of the hill, and the rod of God [will be] in my hand.
10 Mose thupeh bang'in, Joshua'n jong Galsat ding pasal phabep alheng doh tan Amalek mite chu gal akisat pi tauvin ahi. Chuin Mose, Aaron leh Hur amaho cheng chu gam lah molsang lam'a akal tou tauvin ahi.
And Joshua did as Moses said to him, and he went out and set the army in array against Amalec, and Moses and Aaron and Or went up to the top of the hill.
11 Mose'n akhut teni a dopsang chan in Israel mite ahat be cheh jiuvin, chule akhutteni akham teng le vang Amelek mite ahat jita uvin ahi.
And it came to pass, when Moses lifted up his hands, Israel prevailed; and when he let down his hands, Amalec prevailed.
12 Mose khut teni chu ahung khaam tan ahile aman jong adomsang joutapon chuin Aaron le Hur'in jong akhut ngap nading'in song ahol le hontan, a khut teni chu song chung'a angam lhan toumun in nilhum keijin akhut chu chol lou helin a domsang thei tan ahiye.
But the hands of Moses were heavy, and they took a stone and put it under him, and he sat upon it; and Aaron and Or supported his hands one on this side and the other on that, and the hands of Moses were supported till the going down of the sun.
13 Ajonan Joshua le agalsat mihon Amelek mite chu ajoutaovin ahi.
And Joshua routed Amalec and all his people with the slaughter of the sword.

And the Lord said to Moses, Write this for a memorial in a book, and speak [this] in the ears of Joshua; for I will utterly blot out the memorial of Amalec from under heaven.
15 Mose'n jong hiche lai munna chun maicham asem in, “YAWEH-NISSI” (Pakai chu kaponlop ahi) tin asah tai.
And Moses built an altar to the Lord, and called the name of it, The Lord my Refuge.
16 Aman aseijin, “Amalek mite'n Pakai doumah'a chon masao ahin, tunvang! Pakaiyin imatih channa Amalek mite akidou peding ahitai,” ati.
For with a secret hand the Lord wages war upon Amalec to all generations.
