Tâconae 17
1 Isarel rangpuinaw ni BAWIPA e kâ patetlah Sin kahrawng dawk hoi a tâco awh teh kahlawng bout a cei awh nah Rephidim vah rim a tuk awh. Hote hmuen koe taminaw nei hanelah tui awm hoeh.
And all the company of the sons of Israel journey from the wilderness of Sin, on their journeyings, by the command of Jehovah, and encamp in Rephidim, and there is no water for the people to drink;
2 Hatdawkvah, taminaw ni Mosi koe nei hane tui na poe telah a titeh Mosi a yue awh. Mosi ni bangkongmaw kai koe thoenae na tawng awh. BAWIPA hah bangkongmaw na tanouk awh vaw telah atipouh.
and the people strive with Moses, and say, 'Give us water, and we drink.' And Moses saith to them, 'What? — ye strive with me, what? — ye try Jehovah?'
3 Taminaw tui a kahran dawkvah, Mosi yon a pen awh teh a phuenang awh. Kamamouh khue hoi ka canaw, saringnaw pueng tui kahran sak hanelah, Izip ram hoi bangkongmaw na hrawi telah atipouh awh.
and the people thirst there for water, and the people murmur against Moses, and say, 'Why [is] this? — thou hast brought us up out of Egypt, to put us to death, also our sons and our cattle, with thirst.'
4 Hat navah, Mosi ni BAWIPA hah a kaw teh, hete taminaw heh kai ni bangtelamaw ka ti han. Talung hoi kai dêi hanelah meimei coungkacoe ao awh toe telah atipouh.
And Moses crieth to Jehovah, saying, 'What do I to this people? yet a little, and they have stoned me.'
5 BAWIPA ni hai taminaw e hmalah cet nateh, Isarel tami kacuenaw hah kaw. Tuipui na hemnae sonron hah sin nateh Horeb mon lah cet.
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Pass over before the people, and take with thee of the elders of Israel, and thy rod with which thou hast smitten the River take in thy hand, and thou hast gone:
6 Hote hmuen koe kaawm e lungsong van vah kai ka kangdue han. Nang ni hote lungsong hah na hem han. Taminaw ni a nei hane tui hote lungsong dawk hoi a tâco han telah Mosi koe atipouh. Mosi ni Isarel kacuenaw e hmalah hottelah a sak.
Lo, I am standing before thee there on the rock in Horeb, and thou hast smitten on the rock, and waters have come out from it, and the people have drunk.' And Moses doth so before the eyes of the elders of Israel,
7 Isarelnaw ni BAWIPA teh kaimouh koe ao hoi ao hoeh e a tanouk awh dawkvah, hote hmuen teh Massah hoi Meribah telah ati awh.
and he calleth the name of the place Massah, and Meribah, because of the 'strife' of the sons of Israel, and because of their 'trying' Jehovah, saying, 'Is Jehovah in our midst or not?'
8 Hat navah, Amaleknaw ni a tho awh teh Isarelnaw Refidim vah a tuk awh.
And Amalek cometh, and fighteth with Israel in Rephidim,
9 Mosi ni taminaw hah a rawi teh Amaleknaw tuk hanelah cet awh. Tangtho vah, Cathut e sonron ka sin vaiteh, mon vah ka kangdue han telah Joshua koe atipouh.
and Moses saith unto Joshua, 'Choose for us men, and go out, fight with Amalek: to-morrow I am standing on the top of the hill, and the rod of God in my hand.'
10 Mosi ni a dei pouh e patetlah Joshua ni a sak teh Amaleknaw hah a tuk. Mosi, Aron hoi Hur tinaw mon vah a luen awh.
And Joshua doth as Moses hath said to him, to fight with Amalek, and Moses, Aaron, and Hur, have gone up [to] the top of the height;
11 Mosi ni a kut a dâw nah, Isarelnaw ni a tâ awh. A kut a pabo nah, Amaleknaw ni a tâ awh.
and it hath come to pass, when Moses lifteth up his hand, that Israel hath been mighty, and when he letteth his hands rest, that Amalek hath been mighty.
12 Hatei, Mosi e kut tha a tawn dawkvah, ahnimouh ni talung a la awh teh, Mosi talung van a tahung sak hnukkhu, Aron hoi Hur ni avoivang lahoi a kut a tawm pouh roi. Hatdawkvah, Kanîloum totouh a kut teh ama paroup lah ao.
And the hands of Moses [are] heavy, and they take a stone, and set [it] under him, and he sitteth on it: and Aaron and Hur have taken hold on his hands, on this side one, and on that one, and his hands are stedfast till the going in of the sun;
13 Joshua ni hai Amalek bawinaw hoi a taminaw hah tahloi hoi a thei.
and Joshua weakeneth Amalek and his people by the mouth of the sword.
14 BAWIPA ni hai hete hno dawk pahnim hoeh nahanlah ca thut nateh touk telah Joshua koe atipouh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, kalvan rahim vah Amalek pahnimhoehnae hah kai ni ka takhoe han telah Mosi koe atipouh.
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Write this, a memorial in a Book, and set [it] in the ears of Joshua, that I do utterly wipe away the remembrance of Amalek from under the heavens;'
15 Mosi ni khoungroe a sak teh BAWIPA teh ka tânae (Jehovah-nissi) doeh telah ati.
and Moses buildeth an altar, and calleth its name Jehovah-Nissi,
16 Bangkongtetpawiteh, Amaleknaw e kut ni BAWIPA e khoungroe e taran lah ao dawkvah, BAWIPA ni Amaleknaw teh a yungyoe hoi taran lah a tuk han telah ati.
and saith, 'Because a hand [is] on the throne of Jah, war [is] to Jehovah with Amalek from generation — generation.'
