< 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.
HELE mai la ka poe mamo a pau a Iseraela, mai ka waonahele o Sina, i ko lakou hele ana, e like no me ke kauoha a Iehova, a hoomoana iho la lakou ma Repidima: aohe hoi wai e inu no na kanaka.
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?'
Nuku mai la na kanaka ia Mose, i mai la, E haawi mai i wai no makou e inu ai. I aku la, o Mose ia lakou, No ke aha la oukou i nuku mai ai ia'u? no ke aha la oukou i aa aku ai ia Iehova?
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?'
Malaila na kanaka i makewai ai; ohumu ae la na kanaka ia Mose, i mai la lakou, No ke aha la oe i lawe mai ai ia makou, mai Aigupita mai, e make makou, a me ka makou keiki, a me ka makou holoholona, i ka makewai?
4 And Moses cried unto the LORD, saying: 'What shall I do unto this people? they are almost ready to stone me.'
Uwe aku la o Mose ia Iehova, i aka la, Pehea la ka'u e hana mai ai i keia poe kanaka? ua kokoke lakou e hailuku mai ia'u.
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.
I mai la o Iehova ia Mose, E hele ae oe mamua o na kanaka; a e lawe pu aku me oe i na lunakahiko o ka Iseraela; a e lawe no hoi ma kou lima i ke kookoo au i hahau ai i na wai, a e hele:
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.
Aia hoi, e ku no wau ilaila imua ou maluna o ka pohaku ma Horeba; a e hahau oe i ka pohaku, a e puka mai no ka wai mailoko mai o ia mea i inu ai na kanaka. Hana iho la no o Mose pela imua o na lunakahiko a pau o ka Iseraela.
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?'
Kapa aku la oia i ka inoa o ia wahi, o Masa, a me Meriba, no ka nuku ana o na mamo o Iseraela, a me ko lakou aa ana ia Iehova, i ae la, O Iehova anei kekahi iwaena o kakou, aole paha?
8 Then came Amalek, and fought with Israel in Rephidim.
Hele mai la ka Ameleka, a kaua mai i ka Iseraela ma Repidima.
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.'
Olelo ae la o Mose ia Iosua, E wae ae oe i kanaka no kakou, a e hele e kaua aku i ka Ameleka: apopo e ku wau maluna pono o ka puu, me ke kookoo o ke Akua ma ko'u lima.
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.
Hana iho la o Iosua e like me ka mea a Mose i olelo mai ai ia ia, a kaua aku la i ka Ameleka: a o Mose, a me Aarona, a me Hura, pii aku la lakou maluna pono o ka puu.
11 And it came to pass, when Moses held up his hand, that Israel prevailed; and when he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed.
A i ka wa a Mose i kikoo aku ai i kona lima, ikaika ka Iseraela: a i ka wa i alu mai ai kona lima, ikaika ka Ameleka.
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.
Kaumaha iho la ko Mose mau lima; a lawe lakou i ka pohaku, a hoonoho iho la malalo iho ona, a noho iho la ia maluna; a o Aarona laua o Hura, paepae ae la laua i kona mau lima, o kekahi ma kekahi aoao, a o kela, ma kela aoao; a paa iho la kona mau lima a napoo ka la.
13 And Joshua discomfited Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword.
Hooauhee aku la o Iosua i ka Ameleka, a me kona kanaka, me ka maka o ka pahikaua.
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.'
I mai la o Iehova ia Mose, E palapala oe i keia maloko o ka buke, i mea e hoomanao ai, a e hai ma ka pepeiao o Iosua; no ka mea, e anai loa ana au i ka Ameleka mailalo ae o ka lani.
15 And Moses built an altar, and called the name of it Adonai-nissi.
Hana iho la o Mose i kuahu malaila, a kapa aku la ia i ka inoa o ia mea O IEHOVA-NISI.
16 And he said: 'The hand upon the throne of the LORD: the LORD will have war with Amalek from generation to generation.'
Ua olelo no ia, No ka lima ma ka nohoalii o Iehova, e mau loa no ke kaua ana o Iehova i ka Ameleka, mai keia hanauna a ia hanauna aku.
