1 Ungano yose yavaIsraeri yakasimuka kubva paRenje reSini, vachifamba nzvimbo nenzvimbo sokurayira kwaJehovha. Vakadzika musasa paRefidhimu, asi pakanga pasina mvura yokuti vanhu vanwe.
Oganda jo-Israel duto nochako wuoth kawuok e thim mar Sin, ka giwuotho ka gi kacha mana kaka Jehova Nyasaye nochikogi. Ne gibworo Refidim, to ne onge pi mane ji nyalo modho.
2 Saka vanhu vakakakavadzana naMozisi uye vakati, “Tipe mvura tinwe.” Mozisi akapindura akati, “Seiko muchikakavadzana neni? Seiko muchiedza Jehovha?”
Kuom mano negidhawo gi Musa kagiwacho niya, “Miwa pi wamodhi.” To Musa nodwokogi niya “En angʼo momiyo udhawo koda? En angʼo momiyo uketo Jehova Nyasaye e tem?”
3 Asi vanhu vakanga vane nyota yemvura ipapo, saka vakapopotedzana naMozisi. Vakati, “Seiko wakatibudisa muIjipiti kuti isu navana vedu nezvipfuwo zvedu tife nenyota?”
To kata kamano ji ne riyo mar pi oloyo kanyo, kendo ji nongʼur ni Musa. Negiwachone niya, “En angʼo momiyo nigolowa Misri mondo nyithindwa kaachiel gi jambwa otho?”
4 Ipapo Mozisi akachema kuna Jehovha akati, “Ndoiteiko navanhu ava? Votoda kunditaka namabwe.”
Eka Musa noywak ni Jehova Nyasaye niya, “En angʼo mowinjore atim kod jogi? Gichiegni kata mana goya gi kite.”
5 Jehovha akapindura Mozisi akati, “Famba pamberi pavanhu. Tora vamwe vavakuru vavaIsraeri uye ubate muruoko rwako tsvimbo yawakarova nayo mvura yeNairi, ugoenda.
Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya, “Wuothi idhi e nyim oganda. Kaw jodong jo-Israel moko mondo odhi kodi kendo kaw luth mane ichwadogo aora Nael mondo idhigo.
6 Ndichamira ipapo pamberi pako padombo riri paHorebhi. Urove dombo, uye mvura ichabuda pariri, kuti vanhu vanwe.” Saka Mozisi akaita izvi pamberi pavakuru vavaIsraeri.
Abiro chungʼ e nyimi e bath lwanda mantie Horeb. Chwad lwanda to pi nowuog kuome mi oganda nomodhi.” Kuom Mano Musa notimo kamano e nyim jodong jo-Israel duto.
7 Uye akatumidza nzvimbo iyi kuti Masa neMeribha nokuti vaIsraeri vakakavadzana naye uye nokuti vakaedza Jehovha vachiti, “Ko, Jehovha ari pakati pedu here kana kuti kwete?”
Eka nochako kanyo ni Masa kod Meriba nikech jo-Israel nogwandore kanyo to bende nikech ne gitemo Jehova Nyasaye kagiwacho niya, “Bende Jehova Nyasaye ni e dierwa koso?”
8 VaAmareki vakauya vakarwa navaIsraeri paRefidhimu.
Jo-Amalek nobiro momonjo jo-Israel Refidim.
9 Mozisi akati kuna Joshua, “Sarudza vamwe varume vokwedu ugobuda kundorwa navaAmareki. Mangwana ndichandomira pamusoro pechikomo ndine tsvimbo yaMwari mumaoko angu.”
Eka Musa nonyiso Joshua niya, “Yier jomoko kuom jowa mondo idhi iked gi jo-Amalek. Kiny anachungʼ ewi got gi ludh Nyasaye e lweta.”
10 Saka Joshua akarwa navaAmareki sokurayirwa kwaakaitwa naMozisi, uye Mozisi, Aroni naHuri vakakwira pamusoro pechikomo.
Kuom mano Joshua nokedo gi jo-Amalek mana kaka Musa nochiko, kendo Musa gi Harun kod Hur nodhi ewi got.
11 Mozisi paainge akasimudza maoko ake, vaIsraeri vaikunda, asi paaingoderedza maoko ake, vaAmareki vaikunda.
E kinde duto mane Musa osiko kotingʼo bedene malo, to jo-Israel ne loyo, to kane Musa odwoko bedene piny, to jo-Amalek ema ne loyo.
12 Maoko aMozisi akati aneta, vakatora dombo ndokuriisa pasi pake iye akagara pamusoro paro. Aroni naHuri vakabata maoko ake vakamutsigira, mumwe kuno rumwe rutivi, mumwe kuno rumwe rutivi, kuitira kuti maoko ake arambe akatsiga kusvikira madekwana.
Ka bede Musa nojony, to negikawo kidi mi giketone mondo obedie. Harun gi Hur ne ojuko bedene kotingʼo malo, ka ngʼato achiel omako bade konchiel, to machielo omako komachielo, omiyo bedene nosiko kochungʼ tir nyaka podho chiengʼ.
13 Saka Joshua akakunda hondo yavaAmareki nomunondo.
Kuom mano Joshua noloyo jolwenj jo-Amalek mana gi ligangla.
14 Ipapo Jehovha akati kuna Mozisi, “Nyora izvi mubhuku chive chinhu chicharangarirwa uye uve nechokwadi kuti Joshua azvinzwa, nokuti ndichabvisa chirangaridzo chose cheAmareki pasi pedenga.”
Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya, “Ndik wachni e kitap ndiko kaka gima ibiro par bende nyaka ine ni Joshua owinje, nimar abiro tieko jo-Amalek duto e piny ka.”
15 Mozisi akavaka aritari akaitumidza kuti “Jehovha ndiye Mureza wangu.”
Musa nogero kendo mar misango mochake ni “Jehova Nyasaye en banderana.”
16 Akati, “Nokuti maoko akasimudzirwa kumusoro kuchigaro choushe chaJehovha. Jehovha acharwa neAmareki kubva kune chimwe chizvarwa kusvikira kune nechimwe chizvarwa.”
Nowacho kama, “Nimar bede notingʼ malo e nyim kom duongʼ mar Jehova Nyasaye. Kendo Jehova Nyasaye noked gi jo-Amalek e tienge duto.”
