Exodus 17
1 The whole community of the Israelites journeyed from the wilderness of Sin, following Yahweh's instructions. They camped at Rephidim, but there was no water for the people to drink.
Gbogbo ìjọ ènìyàn Israẹli si gbéra láti jáde kúrò láti aginjù Sini wọ́n ń lọ láti ibi kan de ibi kan gẹ́gẹ́ bí Olúwa ti pàṣẹ. Wọ́n pàgọ́ sí Refidimu, ṣùgbọ́n kò sí omi fún àwọn ènìyàn láti mú.
2 So the people blamed Moses for their situation and said, “Give us water to drink.” Moses said, “Why do you quarrel with me? Why do you test Yahweh?”
Àwọn ènìyàn sì sọ̀ fún Mose, wọ́n wí pé, “Fún wa ni omi mu.” Mose dá wọn lóhùn wí pé, “Èéṣe ti ẹ̀yin fi ń bá mi jà? Èéṣe ti ẹ̀yin fi ń dán Olúwa wò?”
3 The people were very thirsty, and they complained against Moses. They said, “Why have you brought us up out of Egypt? To kill us and our children and our cattle with thirst?”
Ṣùgbọ́n òǹgbẹ ń gbẹ àwọn ènìyàn, wọ́n sì ń kùn sí Mose, wọ́n wí pé, “Èéṣe tí ìwọ fi mú wa jáde kúrò ní Ejibiti láti mú kí òǹgbẹ pa àwa, àwọn ọmọ wa àti ohun ọ̀sìn wa ku fún òǹgbẹ.”
4 Then Moses cried out to Yahweh, “What should I do with this people? They are almost ready to stone me.”
Nígbà náà ni Mose gbé ohùn rẹ̀ sókè sí Olúwa pé, “Kí ni kí èmi kí ó ṣe fún àwọn ènìyàn yìí? Wọ́n múra tan láti sọ mi ni òkúta.”
5 Yahweh said to Moses, “Go on ahead of the people, and take with you some elders of Israel. Take with you the staff with which you struck the river, and go.
Olúwa sì dá Mose lóhùn pé, “Máa lọ síwájú àwọn ènìyàn, mú nínú àwọn àgbàgbà Israẹli pẹ̀lú rẹ, mú ọ̀pá tí ìwọ fi lu odò Naili lọ́wọ́ kí ó sì máa lọ.
6 I will stand before you there on the rock at Horeb, and you will strike the rock. Water will come out of it for the people to drink.” Then Moses did so in the sight of the elders of Israel.
Èmi yóò dúró ni ibẹ̀ dè ọ ni orí àpáta ni Horebu. Ìwọ ó sì lu àpáta, omi yóò sì jáde nínú rẹ̀ fún àwọn ènìyàn láti mu.” Mose sì ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀ ni iwájú àwọn àgbàgbà Israẹli.
7 He called that place Massah and Meribah because of the Israelites' complaining, and because they had tested the Lord by saying, “Is Yahweh among us or not?”
Ó sì sọ orúkọ ibẹ̀ ni Massa àti Meriba, nítorí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli sọ̀, wọ́n sì dán Olúwa wò, wọ́n wí pé, “Ǹjẹ́ Olúwa ń bẹ láàrín wa tàbí kò sí?”
8 Then an army of the Amalek people came and attacked Israel at Rephidim.
Àwọn ara Amaleki jáde, wọ́n sì dìde ogun sí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli ni Refidimu.
9 So Moses said to Joshua, “Choose some men and go out. Fight with Amalek. Tomorrow I will stand on top of the hill with the staff of God in my hand.”
Mose sì sọ fún Joṣua pé, “Yàn lára àwọn ọkùnrin fún wa, kí wọn ó sì jáde lọ bá àwọn ará Amaleki jà. Ní ọ̀la, èmi yóò dúró ni orí òkè pẹ̀lú ọ̀pá Ọlọ́run ní ọwọ́ mi.”
10 So Joshua fought Amalek as Moses had instructed, while Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to the top of the hill.
Joṣua ṣe bí Mose ti wí fún un, ó sì bá àwọn ará Amaleki jagun; nígbà tí Mose, Aaroni àti Huri lọ sí orí òkè náà.
11 While Moses was holding his hands up, Israel was winning; when he let his hands rest, Amalek would begin to win.
Níwọ́n ìgbà tí Mose bá gbé apá rẹ̀ sókè, Israẹli n borí ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí ó bá sì rẹ apá rẹ̀ sílẹ̀, Amaleki a sì borí.
12 When Moses' hands became heavy, Aaron and Hur took a stone and put it under him for him to sit on. At the same time, Aaron and Hur held his hands up, one person on one side of him, and the other person on the other side. So Moses' hands were held steady until the sun went down.
Ṣùgbọ́n apá ń ro Mose, wọ́n mú òkúta, wọ́n sì fi sí abẹ́ rẹ̀, ó sì jókòó lé òkúta náà; Aaroni àti Huri sì mu ní apá rẹ̀, ọ̀kan ní apá ọ̀tún àti èkejì ni apá òsì; apá rẹ̀ méjèèjì sì dúró gangan títí di ìgbà ti oòrùn wọ.
13 So Joshua defeated the people of Amalek with the sword.
Joṣua sì fi ojú idà ṣẹ́gun àwọn ará Amaleki.
14 Yahweh said to Moses, “Write this in a book and read it in Joshua's hearing, because I will completely blot out the memory of Amalek from under the skies.”
Olúwa sì sọ fun Mose pé. “Kọ èyí sì inú ìwé fún ìrántí, kí o sì sọ fún Joṣua pẹ̀lú; nítorí èmi yóò pa ìrántí Amaleki run pátápátá kúrò lábẹ́ ọ̀run.”
15 Then Moses built an altar and he called it “Yahweh is my banner.”
Mose sì tẹ́ pẹpẹ kan, ó sì sọ orúkọ pẹpẹ náà ní Olúwa ni Àsíá mi.
16 He said, “For a hand was lifted up to the throne of Yahweh—that Yahweh will wage war with Amalek from generation to generation.”
Ó wí pé, “A gbé ọwọ́ sókè sí ìtẹ́ Olúwa. Olúwa yóò bá Amaleki jagun láti ìran dé ìran.”
