Pukaana 17
1 HELE mai la ka poe mamo a pau a Iseraela, mai ka waonahele o Sina, i ko lakou hele ana, e like no me ke kauoha a Iehova, a hoomoana iho la lakou ma Repidima: aohe hoi wai e inu no na kanaka.
And all the assembly of the children of Israel journeyed from the wilderness of Sin, according to their journeys, at the command of Jehovah; and they encamped in Rephidim; and there was no water for the people to drink.
2 Nuku mai la na kanaka ia Mose, i mai la, E haawi mai i wai no makou e inu ai. I aku la, o Mose ia lakou, No ke aha la oukou i nuku mai ai ia'u? no ke aha la oukou i aa aku ai ia Iehova?
And the people contended with Moses, and said, Give us water, that we may drink! And Moses said to them, Why do ye dispute with me? Why do ye tempt Jehovah?
3 Malaila na kanaka i makewai ai; ohumu ae la na kanaka ia Mose, i mai la lakou, No ke aha la oe i lawe mai ai ia makou, mai Aigupita mai, e make makou, a me ka makou keiki, a me ka makou holoholona, i ka makewai?
And the people thirsted there for water; and the people murmured against Moses, and said, Why is it that thou hast brought us up out of Egypt, to kill us and our children and our cattle with thirst?
4 Uwe aku la o Mose ia Iehova, i aka la, Pehea la ka'u e hana mai ai i keia poe kanaka? ua kokoke lakou e hailuku mai ia'u.
And Moses cried to Jehovah, saying, What shall I do with this people? Yet a little, and they will stone me!
5 I mai la o Iehova ia Mose, E hele ae oe mamua o na kanaka; a e lawe pu aku me oe i na lunakahiko o ka Iseraela; a e lawe no hoi ma kou lima i ke kookoo au i hahau ai i na wai, a e hele:
And Jehovah said to Moses, Go on before the people, and take with thee of the elders of Israel, and thy staff with which thou didst smite the river, take in thy hand, and go.
6 Aia hoi, e ku no wau ilaila imua ou maluna o ka pohaku ma Horeba; a e hahau oe i ka pohaku, a e puka mai no ka wai mailoko mai o ia mea i inu ai na kanaka. Hana iho la no o Mose pela imua o na lunakahiko a pau o ka Iseraela.
Behold, I will stand before thee there upon the rock on Horeb; and thou shalt strike the rock, and there shall come water out of it, that the people may drink. And Moses did so before the eyes of the elders of Israel.
7 Kapa aku la oia i ka inoa o ia wahi, o Masa, a me Meriba, no ka nuku ana o na mamo o Iseraela, a me ko lakou aa ana ia Iehova, i ae la, O Iehova anei kekahi iwaena o kakou, aole paha?
And he called the name of the place Massah, and Meribah, because of the contention of the children of Israel, and because they had tempted Jehovah, saying, Is Jehovah among us, or not?
8 Hele mai la ka Ameleka, a kaua mai i ka Iseraela ma Repidima.
And Amalek came and fought with Israel in Rephidim.
9 Olelo ae la o Mose ia Iosua, E wae ae oe i kanaka no kakou, a e hele e kaua aku i ka Ameleka: apopo e ku wau maluna pono o ka puu, me ke kookoo o ke Akua ma ko'u lima.
And Moses said to Joshua, Choose us men, and go out, fight with Amalek; to-morrow I will stand on the top of the hill with the staff of God in my hand.
10 Hana iho la o Iosua e like me ka mea a Mose i olelo mai ai ia ia, a kaua aku la i ka Ameleka: a o Mose, a me Aarona, a me Hura, pii aku la lakou maluna pono o ka puu.
And Joshua did as Moses had said to him, to fight with Amalek; and Moses, Aaron and Hur went up to the top of the hill.
11 A i ka wa a Mose i kikoo aku ai i kona lima, ikaika ka Iseraela: a i ka wa i alu mai ai kona lima, ikaika ka Ameleka.
And it came to pass when Moses raised his hand, that Israel prevailed; and when he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed.
12 Kaumaha iho la ko Mose mau lima; a lawe lakou i ka pohaku, a hoonoho iho la malalo iho ona, a noho iho la ia maluna; a o Aarona laua o Hura, paepae ae la laua i kona mau lima, o kekahi ma kekahi aoao, a o kela, ma kela aoao; a paa iho la kona mau lima a napoo ka la.
And Moses' hands were heavy; then they took a stone, and put [it] under him, and he sat on it; and Aaron and Hur supported his hands, one on this side, and one on that side; and his hands were steady until the going down of the sun.
13 Hooauhee aku la o Iosua i ka Ameleka, a me kona kanaka, me ka maka o ka pahikaua.
And Joshua broke the power of Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword.
14 I mai la o Iehova ia Mose, E palapala oe i keia maloko o ka buke, i mea e hoomanao ai, a e hai ma ka pepeiao o Iosua; no ka mea, e anai loa ana au i ka Ameleka mailalo ae o ka lani.
And Jehovah said to Moses, Write this [for] a memorial in the book, and rehearse [it] in the ears of Joshua, that I will utterly blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under the heavens.
15 Hana iho la o Mose i kuahu malaila, a kapa aku la ia i ka inoa o ia mea O IEHOVA-NISI.
And Moses built an altar, and called the name of it Jehovah-nissi.
16 Ua olelo no ia, No ka lima ma ka nohoalii o Iehova, e mau loa no ke kaua ana o Iehova i ka Ameleka, mai keia hanauna a ia hanauna aku.
And he said, For the hand is on the throne of Jah; Jehovah will have war with Amalek from generation to generation!
