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 congregation of the children of Israel journeyed from the wilderness of Sin, after their journeys, according to the commandment of the Lord, and pitched 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?
Wherefore the people did chide with Moses, and said, Give us water that we may drink. And Moses said unto them, Why chide ye with me? wherefore do ye tempt the Lord?
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, Wherefore is this 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 unto the Lord, saying, What shall I do unto this people? they be almost ready to 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 the Lord said unto Moses, Go on before the people, and take with thee of the elders of Israel; and thy rod, wherewith thou smotest the river, take in thine 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 in Horeb; and thou shalt smite the rock, and there shall come water out of it, that the people may drink. And Moses did so in the sight 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 chiding of the children of Israel, and because they tempted the Lord, saying, Is the Lord among us, or not?
8 Hele mai la ka Ameleka, a kaua mai i ka Iseraela ma Repidima.
Then came Amalek, 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 unto 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 mine 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.
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.
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 held up 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.
But Moses’ hands were heavy; and they took a stone, and put it under him, and he sat thereon; and Aaron and Hur stayed up 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.
13 Hooauhee aku la o Iosua i ka Ameleka, a me kona kanaka, me ka maka o ka pahikaua.
And Joshua discomfited 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 the Lord said unto Moses, Write this for a memorial in a book, and rehearse it in the ears of Joshua: for I will utterly put out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven.
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.
For he said, Because the Lord hath sworn that the Lord will have war with Amalek from generation to generation.
