< Exodus 17 >

1 And so, the entire multitude of the sons of Israel, having set out from the desert of Sin in stages, according to the word of the Lord, made camp at Rephidim, where there was no water for the people to drink.
Tad visa Israēla bērnu draudze aizgāja pa saviem gājumiem no Sina tuksneša uz Tā Kunga pavēli un apmeta lēģeri iekš Refidim, un tur nebija ūdens, tiem ļaudīm ko dzert.
2 And arguing against Moses, they said, “Give us water, so that we may drink.” And Moses answered them: “Why argue against me? For what reason do you tempt the Lord?”
Tad tie ļaudis bārās ar Mozu un sacīja: dod mums ūdeni, ka dzeram. Tad Mozus uz tiem sacīja: ko jūs ar mani baraties? Kāpēc jūs To Kungu kārdinājat?
3 And so the people were thirsty in that place, due to the scarcity of water, and they murmured against Moses, saying: “Why did you cause us to go out of Egypt, so as to kill us and our children, as well as our cattle, with thirst?”
Kad nu tiem ļaudīm tur pēc ūdens slāpa, tad viņi kurnēja pret Mozu un sacīja: kāpēc tu mūs esi izvedis no Ēģiptes, lai mirstam aiz slāpēm, mēs un mūsu bērni un mūsu lopi?
4 Then Moses cried out to the Lord, saying: “What shall I do with this people? A little while more and they will stone me.”
Un Mozus brēca uz To Kungu un sacīja: ko lai es daru ar šiem ļaudīm? Daudz netrūkst, tad tie mani ar akmeņiem nomētās.
5 And the Lord said to Moses: “Go before the people, and take with you some of the elders of Israel. And take in your hand the staff, with which you struck the river, and advance.
Tad Tas Kungs sacīja uz Mozu: ej tiem ļaudīm priekšā un ņem līdz Israēla vecajus un ņem savā rokā to zizli, ar ko tu to upi esi sitis un noej.
6 Lo, I will stand in that place before you, on the rock of Horeb. And you shall strike the rock, and water will go forth from it, so that the people may drink.” Moses did so in the sight of the elders of Israel.
Redzi, Es tur stāvēšu tavā priekšā uz klints pie Horeba, un tev būs uz to klinti sist, tad ūdens no tā iztecēs, tiem ļaudīm ko dzert. Un Mozus tā darīja priekš Israēla vecaju acīm.
7 And he called the name of that place ‘Temptation,’ because of the arguing of the sons of Israel, and because they tempted the Lord, saying: “Is the Lord with us, or not?”
Un tās vietas vārdu nosauca Masu un Meribu (kārdināšana un strīdus), Israēla bērnu strīdus dēļ, un tāpēc ka tie To Kungu bija kārdinājuši sacīdami: vai Tas Kungs ir mūsu vidū vai nav?
8 And Amalek came and fought against Israel at Rephidim.
Un Amaleks nāca un kāvās ar Israēli iekš Refidim.
9 And Moses said to Joshua: “Choose men. And when you go out, fight against Amalek. Tomorrow, I will stand at the top of the hill, holding the staff of God in my hand.”
Tad Mozus sacīja uz Jozua: izlasi mums vīrus un izej un kaujies pret Amaleku; rīt es stāvēšu pakalna galā, un Dieva zizlis būs manā rokā.
10 Joshua did as Moses had spoken, and he fought against Amalek. But Moses and Aaron and Hur ascended to the top of the hill.
Tad Jozuas darīja kā Mozus tam bija sacījis, un kāvās pret Amaleku; un Mozus un Ārons un Hurs kāpa tai pakalna galā.
11 And when Moses lifted up his hands, Israel prevailed. But when he released them a little while, Amalek overcame.
Un kamēr Mozus turēja savas rokas pacēlis, Israēls uzvarēja, un kad viņš savu roku nolaida, tad Amaleks uzvarēja.
12 Then the hands of Moses became heavy. And so, taking a stone, they placed it beneath him, and he sat on it. Then Aaron and Hur sustained his hands from both sides. And it happened that his hands did not tire until the setting of the sun.
Bet Mozus rokas palika smagas; tad tie ņēma akmeni un lika to viņam apakšā, ka viņš uz tā sēdēja, un Ārons un Hurs turēja viņa rokas, viens vienā, otrs otrā pusē; tā viņa rokas palika stingras, kamēr saule nogāja.
13 And Joshua put to flight Amalek and his people by the edge of the sword.
Un Jozuas Amaleku un viņa ļaudis izdeldēja caur zobena asmeni.
14 Then the Lord said to Moses: “Write this, as a memorial in a book, and deliver it to the ears of Joshua. For I will wipe away the memory of Amalek from under heaven.”
Tad Tas Kungs sacīja uz Mozu: raksti to par piemiņu grāmatā, un pavēli to Jozuam ausīs; jo Es izdeldēšu Amaleka piemiņu apakš debess.
15 And Moses built an altar. And he called its name, ‘The Lord, my Exaltation.’ For he said:
Un Mozus uztaisīja altāri un nosauca viņa vārdu: Tas Kungs mans karogs,
16 “The hand of the throne of the Lord, and the war of the Lord, will be against Amalek from generation to generation.”
Un sacīja: roka pacelta pret Tā Kunga goda krēslu! Tam Kungam būs karš pret Amaleku uz bērnu bērniem!
