Otra Mozus 17
1 Tad visa Israēla bērnu draudze aizgāja pa saviem gājumiem no Sina tuksneša uz Tā Kunga pavēli un apmeta lēģeri iekš Refidim, un tur nebija ūdens, tiem ļaudīm ko dzert.
Obeying what Yahweh commanded, all the Israeli people moved from the Sin Desert. They/We traveled from one place to another. They/We camped at [a place named] Rephidim, but there was no water there for (the people/us) to drink.
2 Tad tie ļaudis bārās ar Mozu un sacīja: dod mums ūdeni, ka dzeram. Tad Mozus uz tiem sacīja: ko jūs ar mani baraties? Kāpēc jūs To Kungu kārdinājat?
So the people complained to Moses/me again, saying, “Give us water to drink!” Moses/I replied to them, “Why are you (criticizing/arguing with) me [RHQ]? And why are you trying to determine whether Yahweh [has the power to provide for you]?”
3 Kad nu tiem ļaudīm tur pēc ūdens slāpa, tad viņi kurnēja pret Mozu un sacīja: kāpēc tu mūs esi izvedis no Ēģiptes, lai mirstam aiz slāpēm, mēs un mūsu bērni un mūsu lopi?
But the people were very thirsty, and they continued to complain to Moses/me. They were saying things like “Why did you bring us out of Egypt?”, and “Did you bring us here to cause us and our children and livestock to die (from thirst/because we had no water to drink) [RHQ]?”
4 Un Mozus brēca uz To Kungu un sacīja: ko lai es daru ar šiem ļaudīm? Daudz netrūkst, tad tie mani ar akmeņiem nomētās.
So Moses/I prayed earnestly to Yahweh. He/I said, “(How shall I deal with these people?/I do not know how to deal with these people!) [RHQ] They are almost ready to [kill me by throwing] stones at me!”
5 Tad Tas Kungs sacīja uz Mozu: ej tiem ļaudīm priekšā un ņem līdz Israēla vecajus un ņem savā rokā to zizli, ar ko tu to upi esi sitis un noej.
Yahweh replied to Moses/me, “Take some of the elders/leaders of the Israeli people with you and [tell the rest of] the people to follow you [to Sinai Mountain]. Take along the stick with which you struck the Nile [River].
6 Redzi, Es tur stāvēšu tavā priekšā uz klints pie Horeba, un tev būs uz to klinti sist, tad ūdens no tā iztecēs, tiem ļaudīm ko dzert. Un Mozus tā darīja priekš Israēla vecaju acīm.
Listen carefully: I will stand in front of you on top of a [large] rock at the foot of the mountain. Strike the rock with your stick. [When you do that], water for the people to drink will flow out of the rock.” [When they/we arrived at the mountain], Moses/I did that while the Israeli elders were watching, [and water flowed from the rock].
7 Un tās vietas vārdu nosauca Masu un Meribu (kārdināšana un strīdus), Israēla bērnu strīdus dēļ, un tāpēc ka tie To Kungu bija kārdinājuši sacīdami: vai Tas Kungs ir mūsu vidū vai nav?
Moses/I gave that place two names [in the Hebrew language: ] Massah, [which means ‘testing’], and Meribah, [which means ‘complaining’]. He/I gave it the name Massah because the Israeli people were testing Yahweh, saying “Is Yahweh really among us [and able to help us], or not?”, and he/I gave it the name Meribah because they were [continually] complaining.
8 Un Amaleks nāca un kāvās ar Israēli iekš Refidim.
Then the descendants of the Amalek people-group came and fought against the Israeli people at Rephidim.
9 Tad Mozus sacīja uz Jozua: izlasi mums vīrus un izej un kaujies pret Amaleku; rīt es stāvēšu pakalna galā, un Dieva zizlis būs manā rokā.
Moses/I said to Joshua, [who was one of our army/Israeli leaders], “Choose some men to go out and fight against the Amalek people-group tomorrow. I will stand on the top of the hill, holding the stick that God told me to carry.”
10 Tad Jozuas darīja kā Mozus tam bija sacījis, un kāvās pret Amaleku; un Mozus un Ārons un Hurs kāpa tai pakalna galā.
So Joshua did what Moses/I told him to do. He took some men to fight against the Amalek people-group. [While they were fighting], Aaron, Hur, and Moses/I went up to the top of the hill [so that they/we could see the whole battle area].
11 Un kamēr Mozus turēja savas rokas pacēlis, Israēls uzvarēja, un kad viņš savu roku nolaida, tad Amaleks uzvarēja.
Whenever Moses/I lifted up his/my arms, the Israeli men started to win [the battle]. And whenever he/I lowered his/my arms, the Amalek people-group started to win.
12 Bet Mozus rokas palika smagas; tad tie ņēma akmeni un lika to viņam apakšā, ka viņš uz tā sēdēja, un Ārons un Hurs turēja viņa rokas, viens vienā, otrs otrā pusē; tā viņa rokas palika stingras, kamēr saule nogāja.
But his/my arms became tired. So Aaron and Hur [rolled] a [large] stone for Moses/me to sit on. [While he/I was sitting on it], those two held up his/my arms, [one on one side and the other on the other side]. In that way, they kept his/my arms lifted up, and his/my arms held steady until the sun went down.
13 Un Jozuas Amaleku un viņa ļaudis izdeldēja caur zobena asmeni.
So Joshua and the men with him completely defeated the Amalek people-group, using their swords [to fight against them].
14 Tad Tas Kungs sacīja uz Mozu: raksti to par piemiņu grāmatā, un pavēli to Jozuam ausīs; jo Es izdeldēšu Amaleka piemiņu apakš debess.
Then Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Write an account of this battle, and then read it to Joshua. [Also write that some day] I will completely get rid of the Amalek people-group.”
15 Un Mozus uztaisīja altāri un nosauca viņa vārdu: Tas Kungs mans karogs,
Then Moses/I built a [stone] altar there and named it ‘Yahweh is [like] my flag’.
16 Un sacīja: roka pacelta pret Tā Kunga goda krēslu! Tam Kungam būs karš pret Amaleku uz bērnu bērniem!
He/I said, “Hold high Yahweh’s flag! Yahweh will continue to fight against the Amalek people-group (forever/in all future generations)!”
