< Exodus 17 >

1 All the congregation of the children of Israel traveled from the wilderness of Sin, by their journeys, according to Jehovah's commandment, and camped in Rephidim; but there was no water for the people to drink.
Nienga i fatrambey Siney mb’ ami’ty lia’ iareo ty valobohò’ o ana’ Israeleo ty ami’ty falie’ Iehovà vaho nañialo e Refidìme fe tsy aman-drano ho kamae’ ondatio.
2 Therefore the people quarreled with Moses, and said, "Give us water to drink." Moses said to them, "Why do you quarrel with me? Why do you test Jehovah?"
Le nidoha raha amy Mosè ondatio nanao ty hoe, Meo rano hinome’ay. Hoe t’i Mosè am’ iereo, Ino ty idabasidà’ areo amako? Ino ty itsoha’ areo t’Iehovà?
3 The people were thirsty for water there; and the people murmured against Moses, and said, "Why have you brought us up out of Egypt, to kill us, our children, and our livestock with thirst?"
Fe nifeake hataliñiereñe ondatio vaho nitoreo amy Mosè ami’ty hoe, Ino ty nampiavota’o anay amy Mitsraime hamonoa’o anay naho o keleia’aio naho o hare’aio an-karan-dranoañe?
4 Moses cried to Jehovah, saying, "What shall I do with these people? They are almost ready to stone me."
Aa le nitoreo am’ Iehovà t’i Mosè, ami’ty hoe: Ino ty hanoeko am’ondaty retoañe? Didý tsy ametsaha’ iareo vato.
5 Jehovah said to Moses, "Walk on before the people, and take the elders of Israel with you, and take the staff in your hand with which you struck the Nile, and go.
Hoe t’Iehovà amy Mosè, Miaria aolo’ ondatio, le ampindrezo o androanavi’ Israeleo; tintino am-pitañe i kobay napao’o i Naileiy, le akia.
6 Look, I will stand before you there on the rock in Horeb. You shall strike the rock, and water will come out of it, that the people may drink." Moses did so in the sight of the elders of Israel.
Inao, hijohañe añatrefa’o ambone’ i vato’ i Korèbey iraho. Paoho i vatoy, le hiakaran-drano, hikamà’ ondatio. Nanoe’ i Mosè izay, ampahaisaha’ o androanavi’ Israeleo.
7 He called the name of the place Massah, and Meribah, because the children of Israel quarreled, and because they tested Jehovah, saying, "Is Jehovah among us, or not?"
Natao’e Masà naho Meribà i toetsey amy te nidoha raha naho nitsoke Iehovà o ana’Israeleo ami’ ty hoe, Amantika hao t’Iehovà ke ts’ie?
8 Then Amalek came and fought with Israel in Rephidim.
Niheo mb’eo amy zao t’i Amalèke nifañotak’ am’Israele e Refidime eo.
9 Moses said to Joshua, "Choose men for us, and go out, fight with Amalek. Tomorrow I will stand on the top of the hill with God's staff in my hand."
Hoe t’i Mosè am’ Iehosoa, Joboño ondaty ho antika, le mionjona hialy amy Amalèke. Hijohañe ambone’ o vohitseo iraho te hamaray le ho an-tañako i kobain’ Añaharey.
10 So Joshua did as Moses had told him, and fought with Amalek; and Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to the top of the hill.
Le nanoe’ Iehosoa i nampanoe’ i Mosèy vaho nialy amy Amalèke, le nañambone’ i vohitsey t’i Mosè naho i Aharone vaho i Khòre.
11 It happened, when Moses held up his hand, that Israel prevailed; and when he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed.
Aa ndra mbiambia te nahafañonga-pitàñe t’i Mosè le nahagioke t’Israele, fa ie nazè’e i fitàñey le nahareketse ka t’i Amalèke.
12 But Moses' hands were heavy; and they took a stone, and put it under him, and he sat on it. Aaron and Hur held up his hands, the one on the one side, and the other on the other side. His hands were steady until sunset.
Nihamokotse amy zao o fità’ i Mosèo le nandrambe vato naho napo’ iereo ambane’e hiambesara’e, naho nongahe’ i Aharone naho i Khòre o fità’eo, ty raik’ añ’ ila’e etia le ty raik’ atia vaho tsy nitroetroe o fità’eo ampara’ te ni­tsofotse i àndroy.
13 Joshua defeated Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword.
Le ginio’ Iehosoa am-bavam-pibara t’i Amalèke naho ondati’eo.
14 Jehovah said to Moses, "Write this for a memorial on a scroll, and rehearse it in the ears of Joshua: that I will utterly blot out the memory of Amalek from under the sky."
Le hoe t’Iehovà amy Mosè, Sokiro am-boke ao izay ho tiahy vaho apoho an-dravembia’ Iehosoa te ho faoheko ambanen-dikerañe ty fitiahiañe i Amalèke.
15 Moses built an altar, and called its name Jehovah our Banner.
Le nandrafitse kitrely t’i Mosè vaho natao’e ty hoe, Iehovà Nissy,
16 He said, "A hand upon the throne of JAH. Jehovah will have war with Amalek from generation to generation.'"
le hoe re, Aa kanao nañonjom-pitàñe amy fiambesa’ Iehovày t’i Amalèke, le hifañotak’ ama’e t’Iehovà, tarirats’ an-tariratse.
