Exodus 17
1 And all the congregation of the sons of Israel journey from the wilderness of Sin, on their journeys, by the command of YHWH, and encamp in Rephidim, and there is no water for the people to drink;
Na ka haere te huihui katoa o nga tama a Iharaira i te koraha o Hini i o ratou haerenga, i pera tonu me ta Ihowa i ako ai, a noho rawa atu ki Repirimi: otiia kahore he wai hei inu ma te iwi.
2 and the people strive with Moses, and say, “Give us water, and we drink.” And Moses says to them, “Why do you strive with me? Why do you try YHWH?”
Na ka ngangau te iwi ki a Mohi, ka mea, Homai ra he wai mo matou, kia inu ai matou. A ka mea a Mohi ki a ratou, He aha koutou i ngangau ai ki ahau? he aha koutou i whakamatautau ai i a Ihowa?
3 And the people thirst for water there, and the people murmur against Moses, and say, “Why [is] this [that] you have brought us up out of Egypt to put us to death, also our sons and our livestock, with thirst?”
Na ka mate te iwi i te wai i reira; a amuamu ana te iwi ki a Mohi, a ka mea, He aha matou i kawea mai ai e koe i Ihipa kia kohurutia ai matou, me a matou tamariki, me a matou kararehe ki te matewai?
4 And Moses cries to YHWH, saying, “What do I do to this people? Yet a little, and they have stoned me.”
Na ka karanga a Mohi ki a Ihowa, ka mea, Me pehea ahau ki te iwi nei? whano ratou aki i ahau ki te kohatu.
5 And YHWH says to Moses, “Pass over before the people, and take with you from [the] elderly of Israel, and take your rod in your hand, with which you have struck the River, and you have gone.
Na ka mea a Ihowa ki a Mohi, Haere i mua i te iwi, ka tango hoki i etahi o nga kaumatua o Iharaira hei hoa mou; ko tau tokotoko hoki i patua e koe ki te awa, me mau atu i tou ringa, ka haere.
6 Behold, I am standing before you there on the rock in Horeb, and you have struck on the rock, and waters have come out from it, and the people have drunk.” And Moses does so before the eyes of [the] elderly of Israel,
Nana, tena ahau te tu atu na i tou aroaro i reira, i runga i te kamaka i Horepa, a mau e patu te kamaka, a ka puta he wai i reira, hei inu ma te iwi. A peratia ana e Mohi i te tirohanga a nga kaumatua o Iharaira.
7 and he calls the name of the place Massah, and Meribah, because of the strife of the sons of Israel, and because of their trying YHWH, saying, “Is YHWH in our midst or not?”
A huaina ana e ia te ingoa o taua wahi ko Maha, ko Meripa; mo te ngangautanga a nga tama a Iharaira, mo ta ratou whakamatau hoki i a Ihowa, i a ratou i mea ra, Kei roto ranei a Ihowa i a tatou, kahore ranei?
8 And Amalek comes, and fights with Israel in Rephidim,
Na ka haere mai a Amareke, kei te whawhai ki a Iharaira ki Repirimi.
9 and Moses says to Joshua, “Choose men for us, and go out, fight with Amalek: tomorrow I am standing on the top of the hill, and the rod of God in my hand.”
Na ka mea a Mohi ki a Hohua, Whiriwhiria mai etahi tangata ma taua, ka haere ki te whawhai ki a Amareke: ka tu ahau apopo ki runga i te tihi o te pukepuke, me te rakau ano hoki a te Atua ki toku ringa.
10 And Joshua does as Moses has said to him, to fight with Amalek, and Moses, Aaron, and Hur have gone up [to] the top of the height;
Na peratia ana e Hohua me ta Mohi i korero ai ki a ia; ko te tino whawhaitanga ki a Amareke: ko Mohi ia, ratou ko Arona, ko Huru, i piki ki te tihi o te pukepuke.
11 and it has come to pass, when Moses lifts up his hand, that Israel has been mighty, and when he lets his hands rest, that Amalek has been mighty.
A ka maiangi ake te ringa o Mohi, na, ka kaha a Iharaira; a ka tukua iho tona ringa, na, ka kaha a Amareke.
12 And the hands of Moses [are] heavy, and they take a stone and set [it] under him, and he sits on it, and Aaron and Hur have taken hold on his hands, one on this [side] and one on that [side]; and his hands are steadfast until the going in of the sun;
Otiia ka taimaha nga ringa o Mohi; a ka mau raua ki tetahi kohatu, a whakatakotoria ana ki raro i a ia, a noho ana ia i runga; a puritia ake ana ona ringa e Arona raua ko Huru, kotahi i tetahi taha, kotahi i tetahi taha: katahi ka tuturu tonu on a ringa, a to noa te ra.
13 and Joshua weakens Amalek and his people by the mouth of the sword.
Na patua ana a Amareke, ratou ko tona iwi, e Hohua ki te mata o te hoari.
14 And YHWH says to Moses, “Write this, a memorial in a Scroll, and set [it] in the ears of Joshua, that I utterly wipe away the remembrance of Amalek from under the heavens”;
Na ka mea a Ihowa ki a Mohi, Tuhituhia tenei ki te pukapuka, hei whakamaharatanga; korerotia hoki ki nga taringa o Hohua: ka tino horoia atu hoki e ahau te maharatanga o Amareke i raro i te rangi.
15 and Moses builds an altar, and calls its name YHWH-Nissi,
A hanga ana e Mohi he aata, a huaina iho tona ingoa ko Ihowanihi.
16 and says, “Because a hand [is] on the throne of YAH, war [is] to YHWH with Amalek from generation [to] generation.”
I mea hoki ia, Kua ara nei te ringa ki te torona o Ihowa, na he pakanga ta Ihowa ki a Amareke i tenei whakapaparanga, i tenei whakapaparanga.
