Exodus 17
1 And all the congregation of the children of Israel journeyed from the wilderness of Sin, by their stages, according to the commandment of the LORD, and encamped in Rephidim; and there was no water for the people to drink.
Oganda jo-Israel duto nochako wuoth kawuok e thim mar Sin, ka giwuotho ka gi kacha mana kaka Jehova Nyasaye nochikogi. Ne gibworo Refidim, to ne onge pi mane ji nyalo modho.
2 Wherefore the people strove with Moses, and said: 'Give us water that we may drink.' And Moses said unto them: 'Why strive ye with me? wherefore do ye try the LORD?'
Kuom mano negidhawo gi Musa kagiwacho niya, “Miwa pi wamodhi.” To Musa nodwokogi niya “En angʼo momiyo udhawo koda? En angʼo momiyo uketo Jehova Nyasaye e tem?”
3 And the people thirsted there for water; and the people murmured against Moses, and said: 'Wherefore hast thou brought us up out of Egypt, to kill us and our children and our cattle with thirst?'
To kata kamano ji ne riyo mar pi oloyo kanyo, kendo ji nongʼur ni Musa. Negiwachone niya, “En angʼo momiyo nigolowa Misri mondo nyithindwa kaachiel gi jambwa otho?”
4 And Moses cried unto the LORD, saying: 'What shall I do unto this people? they are almost ready to stone me.'
Eka Musa noywak ni Jehova Nyasaye niya, “En angʼo mowinjore atim kod jogi? Gichiegni kata mana goya gi kite.”
5 And the LORD said unto Moses: 'Pass on before the people, and take with thee of the elders of Israel; and thy rod, wherewith thou smotest the river, take in thy hand, and go.
Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya, “Wuothi idhi e nyim oganda. Kaw jodong jo-Israel moko mondo odhi kodi kendo kaw luth mane ichwadogo aora Nael mondo idhigo.
6 Behold, I will stand before thee there upon the rock in Horeb; and thou shalt smite the rock, and there shall come water out of it, that the people may drink.' And Moses did so in the sight of the elders of Israel.
Abiro chungʼ e nyimi e bath lwanda mantie Horeb. Chwad lwanda to pi nowuog kuome mi oganda nomodhi.” Kuom Mano Musa notimo kamano e nyim jodong jo-Israel duto.
7 And the name of the place was called Massah, and Meribah, because of the striving of the children of Israel, and because they tried the LORD, saying: 'Is the LORD among us, or not?'
Eka nochako kanyo ni Masa kod Meriba nikech jo-Israel nogwandore kanyo to bende nikech ne gitemo Jehova Nyasaye kagiwacho niya, “Bende Jehova Nyasaye ni e dierwa koso?”
8 Then came Amalek, and fought with Israel in Rephidim.
Jo-Amalek nobiro momonjo jo-Israel Refidim.
9 And Moses said unto Joshua: 'Choose us out men, and go out, fight with Amalek; tomorrow I will stand on the top of the hill with the rod of God in my hand.'
Eka Musa nonyiso Joshua niya, “Yier jomoko kuom jowa mondo idhi iked gi jo-Amalek. Kiny anachungʼ ewi got gi ludh Nyasaye e lweta.”
10 So Joshua did as Moses had said to him, and fought with Amalek; and Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to the top of the hill.
Kuom mano Joshua nokedo gi jo-Amalek mana kaka Musa nochiko, kendo Musa gi Harun kod Hur nodhi ewi got.
11 And it came to pass, when Moses held up his hand, that Israel prevailed; and when he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed.
E kinde duto mane Musa osiko kotingʼo bedene malo, to jo-Israel ne loyo, to kane Musa odwoko bedene piny, to jo-Amalek ema ne loyo.
12 But Moses' hands were heavy; and they took a stone, and put it under him, and he sat thereon; and Aaron and Hur stayed up his hands, the one on the one side, and the other on the other side; and his hands were steady until the going down of the sun.
Ka bede Musa nojony, to negikawo kidi mi giketone mondo obedie. Harun gi Hur ne ojuko bedene kotingʼo malo, ka ngʼato achiel omako bade konchiel, to machielo omako komachielo, omiyo bedene nosiko kochungʼ tir nyaka podho chiengʼ.
13 And Joshua discomfited Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword.
Kuom mano Joshua noloyo jolwenj jo-Amalek mana gi ligangla.
14 And the LORD said unto Moses: 'Write this for a memorial in the book, and rehearse it in the ears of Joshua: for I will utterly blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven.'
Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya, “Ndik wachni e kitap ndiko kaka gima ibiro par bende nyaka ine ni Joshua owinje, nimar abiro tieko jo-Amalek duto e piny ka.”
15 And Moses built an altar, and called the name of it Adonai-nissi.
Musa nogero kendo mar misango mochake ni “Jehova Nyasaye en banderana.”
16 And he said: 'The hand upon the throne of the LORD: the LORD will have war with Amalek from generation to generation.'
Nowacho kama, “Nimar bede notingʼ malo e nyim kom duongʼ mar Jehova Nyasaye. Kendo Jehova Nyasaye noked gi jo-Amalek e tienge duto.”
