Exodus 17
1 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.
परमप्रभुको निर्देशन मानी इस्राएलीहरूको सारा समुदाय सीनको उजाड-स्थानबाट यात्रा गरे । तिनीहरूले रपीदीममा छाउनी हाले, तर त्यहाँ मानिसहरूलाई पिउन पानी थिएन ।
2 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?
त्यसैले मानिसहरूले तिनीहरूको अवस्थाको निम्ति मोशालाई दोष लगाए र भने, “हामीलाई पिउन पानी दिनुहोस् ।” मोशाले भने, “तिमीहरू किन मसित झगडा गर्छौ? तिमीहरू किन परमप्रभुको जाँच गर्छौ?”
3 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?
मानिसहरू तिर्खाएका थिए । त्यसैले तिनीहरूले मोशाको विरुद्धमा गनगन गरे । तिनीहरूले भने, “तपाईंले हामीलाई मिश्रबाट किन निकालेर ल्याउनुभएको? हामी, हाम्रा छोराछोरी र हाम्रा गाईवस्तुलाई तिर्खाले मार्नलाई?”
4 And Moses cried to the Lord, saying, What shall I do to this people? yet a little while and they will stone me.
तब मोशाले परमप्रभुलाई पुकारा गरे, “यी मानिसहरूलाई मैले के गर्ने? तिनीहरू मलाई ढुङ्गा हान्न झण्डै तयार छन् ।”
5 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.
परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्नुभयो, “मानिसहरूभन्दा अगाडि जा, र इस्राएलका केही धर्म-गुरुहरूलाई पनि आफूसँगै लैजा । तैँले नदीमा प्रहार गरेको लट्ठी पनि सँगै लिएर जा ।
6 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.
म होरेब पर्वतमा चट्टानमा तेरो सामु खडा हुनेछु, र तैँले चट्टानलाई हिर्का । मानिसहरूलाई पिउन चट्टानबाट पानी निस्केर आउनेछ ।” तब मोशाले इस्राएलका धर्म-गुरुहरूको दृष्टिमा त्यसै गरे ।
7 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 amongst us or not?
इस्राएलीहरूको गनगन र “परमप्रभु हाम्रा बिचमा हुनुहुन्छ कि हुनुहुन्न?” भनी तिनीहरूले प्रभुको जाँच गरेकाले तिनले त्यस ठाउँको नाउँ मस्साह र मेरीबा राखे ।
8 And Amalec came and fought with Israel in Raphidin.
तब रपीदीममा अमालेक जातिका सेना आएर इस्राएललाई आक्रमण गरे ।
9 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.
त्यसैले मोशाले यहोशूलाई भने, “केही मानिसहरू छानेर जाऊ र अमालेकीहरूसित युद्ध गर । भोलि म परमेश्वरको लट्ठी मेरो हातमा लिएर पर्वतको टुप्पोमा उभिनेछु ।”
10 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.
त्यसैले मोशाको आज्ञामुताबिक यहोशू अमालेकीहरूको विरुद्धमा लडे जब कि मोशा, हारून र हूरचाहिँ पर्वतको टुप्पोमा उक्ले ।
11 And it came to pass, when Moses lifted up his hands, Israel prevailed; and when he let down his hands, Amalec prevailed.
मोशाले आफ्ना हात माथि उठाउँदा इस्राएलले जित्थो भने तिनले आफ्ना हात तल झार्दा अमालेकीहरूले जित्न थाल्थे ।
12 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.
मोशाका हात थाक्दा हारून र हूरले एउटा ढुङ्गा ल्याएर तीमुनि राखिदिन्थे । त्यसै बेला हारून एकापट्टि र हूर अर्कोपट्टि बसेर तिनका हात माथि उठाउँथे । सूर्यास्त नहोउञ्जेलसम्म मोशाका हात थामिए ।
13 And Joshua routed Amalec and all his people with the slaughter of the sword.
अनि यहोशूले अमालेकीहरूलाई तरवारले पराजित गरे ।
14 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.
परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्नुभयो, “यो कुरा एउटा पुस्तकमा लेख् र त्यो यहोशूलाई बताइदे किनकि म अमालेकीहरूको स्मृति आकाशमुनिबाट पूर्ण रूपमा नामेट पारिदिनेछु ।”
15 And Moses built an altar to the Lord, and called the name of it, The Lord my Refuge.
तब मोशाले त्यहाँ एउटा वेदी बनाए र त्यसको नाउँ “परमप्रभु मेरो झण्डा हुनुहुन्छ” राखे ।
16 For with a secret hand the Lord wages war upon Amalec to all generations.
तिनले भने, “पुस्तादेखि पुस्तासम्म परमप्रभु नै अमालेकीहरूसित लड्नुभएको होस् भनेर उहाँको सिंहासनतिर हात उचालिएको थियो ।”
