Exodus 17
1 All the congregation of the children of Israel [God prevails] traveled from the wilderness of Cin [Clay], by their journeys, according to Adonai’s order, and encamped in Rephidim; but there was no water for the people to drink.
Kemudian berangkatlah segenap jemaah Israel dari padang gurun Sin, berjalan dari tempat persinggahan ke tempat persinggahan, sesuai dengan titah TUHAN, lalu berkemahlah mereka di Rafidim, tetapi di sana tidak ada air untuk diminum bangsa itu.
2 Therefore the people quarreled with Moses [Drawn out], and said, “Give us water to drink.” Moses [Drawn out] said to them, “Why do you quarrel with me? Why do you test Adonai?”
Jadi mulailah mereka itu bertengkar dengan Musa, kata mereka: "Berikanlah air kepada kami, supaya kami dapat minum." Tetapi Musa berkata kepada mereka: "Mengapakah kamu bertengkar dengan aku? Mengapakah kamu mencobai TUHAN?"
3 The people were thirsty for water there; and the people murmured against Moses [Drawn out], and said, “Why have you brought us up out of Egypt [Abode of slavery], to kill us, our children, and our livestock with thirst?”
Hauslah bangsa itu akan air di sana; bersungut-sungutlah bangsa itu kepada Musa dan berkata: "Mengapa pula engkau memimpin kami keluar dari Mesir, untuk membunuh kami, anak-anak kami dan ternak kami dengan kehausan?"
4 Moses [Drawn out] cried to Adonai, saying, “What shall I do with these people? They are almost ready to stone me.”
Lalu berseru-serulah Musa kepada TUHAN, katanya: "Apakah yang akan kulakukan kepada bangsa ini? Sebentar lagi mereka akan melempari aku dengan batu!"
5 Adonai said to Moses [Drawn out], “Walk on before the people, and take the elders of Israel [God prevails] with you, and take the rod in your hand with which you struck the Nile, and go.
Berfirmanlah TUHAN kepada Musa: "Berjalanlah di depan bangsa itu dan bawalah beserta engkau beberapa orang dari antara para tua-tua Israel; bawalah juga di tanganmu tongkatmu yang kaupakai memukul sungai Nil dan pergilah.
6 Behold, I will stand before you there on the rock in Horeb [Desert]. You shall strike the rock, and water will come out of it, that the people may drink.” Moses [Drawn out] did so in the sight of the elders of Israel [God prevails].
Maka Aku akan berdiri di sana di depanmu di atas gunung batu di Horeb; haruslah kaupukul gunung batu itu dan dari dalamnya akan keluar air, sehingga bangsa itu dapat minum." Demikianlah diperbuat Musa di depan mata tua-tua Israel.
7 He called the name of the place Massah [Testing], and Meribah [Quarreling], because the children of Israel [God prevails] quarreled, and because they tested Adonai, saying, “Is Adonai among us, or not?”
Dinamailah tempat itu Masa dan Meriba, oleh karena orang Israel telah bertengkar dan oleh karena mereka telah mencobai TUHAN dengan mengatakan: "Adakah TUHAN di tengah-tengah kita atau tidak?"
8 Then Amalek [Man who licks up] came and fought with Israel [God prevails] in Rephidim.
Lalu datanglah orang Amalek dan berperang melawan orang Israel di Rafidim.
9 Moses [Drawn out] said to Joshua [Yah Salvation], “Choose men for us, and go out, fight with Amalek [Man who licks up]. Tomorrow I will stand on the top of the hill with God’s rod in my hand.”
Musa berkata kepada Yosua: "Pilihlah orang-orang bagi kita, lalu keluarlah berperang melawan orang Amalek, besok aku akan berdiri di puncak bukit itu dengan memegang tongkat Allah di tanganku."
10 So Joshua [Yah Salvation] did as Moses [Drawn out] had told him, and fought with Amalek [Man who licks up]; and Moses [Drawn out], Aaron [Light-bringer], and Hur went up to the top of the hill.
Lalu Yosua melakukan seperti yang dikatakan Musa kepadanya dan berperang melawan orang Amalek; tetapi Musa, Harun dan Hur telah naik ke puncak bukit.
11 When Moses [Drawn out] held up his hand, Israel [God prevails] prevailed. When he let down his hand, Amalek [Man who licks up] prevailed.
Dan terjadilah, apabila Musa mengangkat tangannya, lebih kuatlah Israel, tetapi apabila ia menurunkan tangannya, lebih kuatlah Amalek.
12 But Moses [Drawn out]’ hands were heavy; and they took a stone, and put it under him, and he sat on it. Aaron [Light-bringer] 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.
Maka penatlah tangan Musa, sebab itu mereka mengambil sebuah batu, diletakkanlah di bawahnya, supaya ia duduk di atasnya; Harun dan Hur menopang kedua belah tangannya, seorang di sisi yang satu, seorang di sisi yang lain, sehingga tangannya tidak bergerak sampai matahari terbenam.
13 Joshua [Yah Salvation] defeated Amalek [Man who licks up] and his people with the edge of the sword.
Demikianlah Yosua mengalahkan Amalek dan rakyatnya dengan mata pedang.
14 Adonai said to Moses [Drawn out], “Write this for a memorial in a book, and rehearse it in the ears of Joshua [Yah Salvation]: that I will utterly blot out the memory of Amalek [Man who licks up] from under the sky.”
Kemudian berfirmanlah TUHAN kepada Musa: "Tuliskanlah semuanya ini dalam sebuah kitab sebagai tanda peringatan, dan ingatkanlah ke telinga Yosua, bahwa Aku akan menghapuskan sama sekali ingatan kepada Amalek dari kolong langit."
15 Moses [Drawn out] built an altar, and called its name Adonai our Banner.
Lalu Musa mendirikan sebuah mezbah dan menamainya: "Tuhanlah panji-panjiku!"
16 He said, “Yah has sworn: ‘Adonai will have war with Amalek [Man who licks up] from generation to generation.’”
Ia berkata: "Tangan di atas panji-panji TUHAN! TUHAN berperang melawan Amalek turun-temurun."
