Exodus 17
1 And all the congregation of the children of Israel journeyed from the wilderness of Sin, after their journeys, according to the commandment of the LORD, and encamped in Rephidim: and [there was] no water for the people to drink.
| وَتَنَقَّلَ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ عَلَى مَرَاحِلَ، مِنْ صَحْرَاءِ سِينَ بِمُقْتَضَى أَمْرِ الرَّبِّ إِلَى أَنْ خَيَّمُوا فِي رَفِيدِيمَ حَيْثُ لَمْ يَجِدُوا مَاءً لِلشُّرْبِ. | ١ |
2 Wherefore the people contended with Moses, and said, Give us water that we may drink. And Moses said to them, Why chide you with me? why do ye tempt the LORD?
| فَتَخَاصَمَ الشَّعْبُ مَعَ مُوسَى قَائِلِينَ: «أَعْطُونَا مَاءً لِنَشْرَبَ». فَأَجَابَ مُوسَى: «لِمَاذَا تُخَاصِمُونَنِي؟ وَلِمَاذَا تَجَرِّبُونَ الرَّبَّ؟» | ٢ |
3 And the people thirsted there for water; and the people murmured against Moses, and said, Why [is] this [that] thou hast brought us out of Egypt to kill us and our children and our cattle with thirst?
| وَلَكِنَّ الشَّعْبَ كَانَ مُتَعَطِّشاً إِلَى الْمَاءِ، فَتَذَمَّرُوا عَلَى مُوسَى وَقَالُوا: «لِمَاذَا أَخْرَجْتَنَا مِنْ مِصْرَ لِتُمِيتَنَا وَأَوْلادَنَا وَمَوَاشِينَا عَطَشاً؟» | ٣ |
4 And Moses cried to the LORD, saying, What shall I do to this people? they are almost ready to stone me.
| فَصَرَخَ مُوسَى إِلَى الرَّبِّ: «مَاذَا أَصْنَعُ بِهَذَا الشَّعْبِ؟ إِنَّهُمْ يَكَادُونَ يَرْجُمُونَنِي» | ٤ |
5 And the LORD said to Moses, Go on before the people, and take with thee of the elders of Israel: and thy rod, with which thou smotest the river, take in thy hand, and go.
| فَأَجَابَهُ الرَّبُّ: «تَقَدَّمِ الشَّعْبَ وَخُذْ مَعَكَ بَعْضَ شُيُوخِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَخُذْ بِيَدِكَ عَصَاكَ أَيْضاً الَّتِي ضَرَبْتَ بِها النَّهْرَ، | ٥ |
6 Behold, I will stand before thee there on the rock in Horeb; and thou shalt smite the rock, and water shall come out of it, that the people may drink. And Moses did so in the sight of the elders of Israel.
| فَهَا أَنَا أَقِفُ هُنَاكَ أَمَامَكَ عَلَى الصَّخْرَةِ فِي حُورِيبَ. اضْرِبِ الصَّخْرَةَ فَيَنْفَجِرَ مِنْهَا الْمَاءُ لِيَشْرَبَ الشَّعْبُ». وَهَكَذَا فَعَلَ مُوسَى أَمَامَ شُيُوخِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٦ |
7 And he called the name of the place Massah, and Meribah, because of the chiding of the children of Israel, and because they tempted the LORD, saying, Is the LORD among us, or not?
| وَدَعَا اسْمَ الْمَوْضِعِ مَسَّةَ وَمَرِيبَةَ (وَمَعْنَاهُ الامْتِحَانُ وَالمُخَاصَمَةُ) نَتِيجَةً لِتَخَاصُمِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ وَامْتِحَانِهِمْ لِلرَّبِّ قَائِلِينَ: «هَلِ الرَّبُّ فِي وَسْطِنَا أَمْ لا؟» | ٧ |
8 Then came Amalek, and fought with Israel in Rephidim.
| وَخَرَجَ الْعَمَالِقَةُ وَحَارَبُوا إِسْرَائِيلَ فِي رَفِيدِيمَ. | ٨ |
9 And Moses said to Joshua, Choose us out men, and go out, fight with Amalek: to-morrow I will stand on the top of the hill with the rod of God in my hand.
| فَقَالَ مُوسَى لِيَشُوعَ: «انْتَخِبْ بَعْضَ رِجَالِنَا وَامْضِ لِمُحَارَبَةِ عَمَالِيقَ. وَهَا أَنَا أَقِفُ غَداً عَلَى قِمَّةِ التَّلِّ وَعَصَا اللهِ فِي يَدِي». | ٩ |
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.
| فَحَارَبَ يَشُوعُ الْعَمَالِقَةَ كَمَا أَمَرَ مُوسَى. وَصَعِدَ مُوسَى وَهَرُونُ وَحُورُ عَلَى قِمَّةِ التَّلَّةِ. | ١٠ |
11 And it came to pass, when Moses held up his hand, that Israel prevailed: and when he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed.
| فَطَالَمَا كَانَ مُوسَى رَافِعاً يَدَهُ، يَغْلِبُ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَإذَا خَفَضَهَا يَفُوزُ الْعَمَالِقَةُ. | ١١ |
12 But Moses's hands [were] heavy; and they took a stone, and put [it] under him, and he sat upon it: and Aaron and Hur supported 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.
| وَعِنْدَمَا دَبَّ التَّعَبُ فِي يَدَيْ مُوسَى أَخَذَ هَرُونُ وَحُورُ حَجَراً وَوَضَعَاهُ تَحْتَهُ، فَجَلَسَ عَلَيْهِ، وَأَسْنَدَ هَرُونُ وَحُورُ يَدَيْهِ، كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمَا مِنْ جَانِبٍ. وَهَكَذَا بَقِيَتْ يَدَاهُ مَرْفُوعَتَيْنِ حَتَّى مَغْرِبِ الشَّمْسِ. | ١٢ |
13 And Joshua discomfited Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword.
| فَهَزَمَ يَشُوعُ الْعَمَالِقَةَ وَجَيْشَهُمْ بِحَدِّ السَّيْفِ. | ١٣ |
14 And the LORD said to Moses, Write this [for] a memorial in a book, and rehearse [it] in the ears of Joshua: for I will utterly blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven.
| فَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «دَوِّنْ هَذَا فِي الْكِتَابِ لِلتَّذْكَارِ، وَاتْلُهُ عَلَى يَشُوعَ، لأَنَّنِي سَأَمْحُو ذِكْرَ الْعَمَالِقَةِ مِنْ تَحْتِ السَّمَاءِ». | ١٤ |
15 And Moses built an altar, and called the name of it JEHOVAH-nissi:
| وَشَيَّدَ مُوسَى مَذْبَحاً لِلرَّبِّ دَعَاهُ «يَهْوَهْ نِسِّي» (وَمَعْنَاهُ: الرَّبُّ رَايَتِي أَوْ عَلَمِي)، | ١٥ |
16 For he said, Because the LORD hath sworn [that] the LORD [will have] war with Amalek from generation to generation.
| قَائِلاً: «لأَنَّ يَداً ارْتَفَعَتْ ضِدَّ عَرْشِ الرَّبِّ، فَإِنَّ الرَّبَّ سَيُحَارِبُ الْعَمَالِقَةَ جِيلاً بَعْدَ جِيلٍ». | ١٦ |
