Keluaran 17
1 Kemudian seluruh umat Israel meninggalkan padang gurun Sin dan berpindah-pindah dari satu tempat ke tempat yang lain sebagaimana diperintahkan TUHAN. Pada suatu waktu mereka berkemah di Rafidim, tetapi di situ tak ada air minum.
All the congregation of the children of Israel traveled from the wilderness of Sin, by their journeys, according to Jehovah's commandment, and camped in Rephidim; but there was no water for the people to drink.
2 Lalu mereka mengomel kepada Musa dan berkata, "Berilah kami air minum." Musa menjawab, "Mengapa kamu mengomel dan mencobai TUHAN?"
Therefore the people quarreled with Moses, and said, "Give us water to drink." Moses said to them, "Why do you quarrel with me? Why do you test Jehovah?"
3 Tetapi orang-orang itu sangat kehausan dan mereka terus mengomel kepada Musa. Kata mereka, "Mengapa kaubawa kami keluar dari Mesir? Supaya kami, anak-anak kami dan ternak kami mati kehausan?"
The people were thirsty for water there; and the people murmured against Moses, and said, "Why have you brought us up out of Egypt, to kill us, our children, and our livestock with thirst?"
4 Maka berserulah Musa kepada TUHAN, katanya, "Apa yang harus saya buat kepada orang-orang ini? Lihatlah, mereka mau melempari saya dengan batu."
Moses cried to Jehovah, saying, "What shall I do with these people? They are almost ready to stone me."
5 Kata TUHAN kepada Musa, "Panggillah beberapa orang pemimpin dan berjalanlah bersama-sama dengan mereka mendahului bangsa itu. Bawa juga tongkat yang kaupakai untuk memukul Sungai Nil.
Jehovah said to Moses, "Walk on before the people, and take the elders of Israel with you, and take the staff in your hand with which you struck the Nile, and go.
6 Aku akan berdiri di depanmu di atas sebuah batu besar di Gunung Sinai. Pukullah batu itu, maka air akan keluar sehingga orang-orang itu bisa minum." Musa berbuat begitu disaksikan oleh para pemimpin Israel.
Look, I will stand before you there on the rock in Horeb. You shall strike the rock, and water will come out of it, that the people may drink." Moses did so in the sight of the elders of Israel.
7 Tempat itu dinamakan Masa karena di tempat itu orang Israel mencobai TUHAN waktu mereka bertanya, "Apakah TUHAN menyertai kita atau tidak?" Tempat itu juga dinamakan Meriba karena di tempat itu orang Israel mengomel.
He called the name of the place Massah, and Meribah, because the children of Israel quarreled, and because they tested Jehovah, saying, "Is Jehovah among us, or not?"
8 Kemudian orang Amalek datang dan menyerang orang Israel di Rafidim.
Then Amalek came and fought with Israel in Rephidim.
9 Kata Musa kepada Yosua, "Pilihlah beberapa orang untuk memerangi orang Amalek. Besok saya akan berdiri di puncak bukit memegang tongkat yang Allah suruh bawa."
Moses said to Joshua, "Choose men for us, and go out, fight with Amalek. Tomorrow I will stand on the top of the hill with God's staff in my hand."
10 Yosua melakukan apa yang diperintahkan Musa kepadanya. Ia pergi memerangi orang Amalek, sedang Musa, Harun dan Hur mendaki bukit sampai di puncaknya.
So Joshua did as Moses had told him, and fought with Amalek; and Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to the top of the hill.
11 Selama Musa mengangkat tangannya, orang Israel menang. Tetapi kalau Musa menurunkan tangannya, orang Amaleklah yang menang.
It happened, when Moses held up his hand, that Israel prevailed; and when he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed.
12 Ketika Musa menjadi lelah, Harun dan Hur mengambil sebuah batu supaya Musa bisa duduk; Harun dan Hur berdiri di kiri dan di kanan Musa untuk menopang tangannya supaya tetap terangkat sampai matahari terbenam.
But Moses' hands were heavy; and they took a stone, and put it under him, and he sat on it. Aaron 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.
13 Akhirnya orang Amalek dikalahkan oleh Yosua.
Joshua defeated Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword.
14 Kata TUHAN kepada Musa, "Tulislah tentang kemenangan ini supaya tetap diingat. Katakan kepada Yosua bahwa Aku akan membinasakan orang Amalek."
Jehovah said to Moses, "Write this for a memorial on a scroll, and rehearse it in the ears of Joshua: that I will utterly blot out the memory of Amalek from under the sky."
15 Lalu Musa membangun sebuah mezbah dan menamakannya "TUHAN adalah Panjiku."
Moses built an altar, and called its name Jehovah our Banner.
16 Kata Musa, "Peganglah tinggi-tinggi panji TUHAN! TUHAN berperang melawan orang Amalek untuk selama-lamanya!"
He said, "A hand upon the throne of JAH. Jehovah will have war with Amalek from generation to generation.'"
