Exodus 17
1 Gbogbo ìjọ ènìyàn Israẹli si gbéra láti jáde kúrò láti aginjù Sini wọ́n ń lọ láti ibi kan de ibi kan gẹ́gẹ́ bí Olúwa ti pàṣẹ. Wọ́n pàgọ́ sí Refidimu, ṣùgbọ́n kò sí omi fún àwọn ènìyàn láti mú.
And all the congregation of the sons of Israel journey from the wilderness of Sin, on their journeys, by the command of YHWH, and encamp in Rephidim, and there is no water for the people to drink;
2 Àwọn ènìyàn sì sọ̀ fún Mose, wọ́n wí pé, “Fún wa ni omi mu.” Mose dá wọn lóhùn wí pé, “Èéṣe ti ẹ̀yin fi ń bá mi jà? Èéṣe ti ẹ̀yin fi ń dán Olúwa wò?”
and the people strive with Moses, and say, “Give us water, and we drink.” And Moses says to them, “Why do you strive with me? Why do you try YHWH?”
3 Ṣùgbọ́n òǹgbẹ ń gbẹ àwọn ènìyàn, wọ́n sì ń kùn sí Mose, wọ́n wí pé, “Èéṣe tí ìwọ fi mú wa jáde kúrò ní Ejibiti láti mú kí òǹgbẹ pa àwa, àwọn ọmọ wa àti ohun ọ̀sìn wa ku fún òǹgbẹ.”
And the people thirst for water there, and the people murmur against Moses, and say, “Why [is] this [that] you have brought us up out of Egypt to put us to death, also our sons and our livestock, with thirst?”
4 Nígbà náà ni Mose gbé ohùn rẹ̀ sókè sí Olúwa pé, “Kí ni kí èmi kí ó ṣe fún àwọn ènìyàn yìí? Wọ́n múra tan láti sọ mi ni òkúta.”
And Moses cries to YHWH, saying, “What do I do to this people? Yet a little, and they have stoned me.”
5 Olúwa sì dá Mose lóhùn pé, “Máa lọ síwájú àwọn ènìyàn, mú nínú àwọn àgbàgbà Israẹli pẹ̀lú rẹ, mú ọ̀pá tí ìwọ fi lu odò Naili lọ́wọ́ kí ó sì máa lọ.
And YHWH says to Moses, “Pass over before the people, and take with you from [the] elderly of Israel, and take your rod in your hand, with which you have struck the River, and you have gone.
6 Èmi yóò dúró ni ibẹ̀ dè ọ ni orí àpáta ni Horebu. Ìwọ ó sì lu àpáta, omi yóò sì jáde nínú rẹ̀ fún àwọn ènìyàn láti mu.” Mose sì ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀ ni iwájú àwọn àgbàgbà Israẹli.
Behold, I am standing before you there on the rock in Horeb, and you have struck on the rock, and waters have come out from it, and the people have drunk.” And Moses does so before the eyes of [the] elderly of Israel,
7 Ó sì sọ orúkọ ibẹ̀ ni Massa àti Meriba, nítorí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli sọ̀, wọ́n sì dán Olúwa wò, wọ́n wí pé, “Ǹjẹ́ Olúwa ń bẹ láàrín wa tàbí kò sí?”
and he calls the name of the place Massah, and Meribah, because of the strife of the sons of Israel, and because of their trying YHWH, saying, “Is YHWH in our midst or not?”
8 Àwọn ara Amaleki jáde, wọ́n sì dìde ogun sí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli ni Refidimu.
And Amalek comes, and fights with Israel in Rephidim,
9 Mose sì sọ fún Joṣua pé, “Yàn lára àwọn ọkùnrin fún wa, kí wọn ó sì jáde lọ bá àwọn ará Amaleki jà. Ní ọ̀la, èmi yóò dúró ni orí òkè pẹ̀lú ọ̀pá Ọlọ́run ní ọwọ́ mi.”
and Moses says to Joshua, “Choose men for us, and go out, fight with Amalek: tomorrow I am standing on the top of the hill, and the rod of God in my hand.”
10 Joṣua ṣe bí Mose ti wí fún un, ó sì bá àwọn ará Amaleki jagun; nígbà tí Mose, Aaroni àti Huri lọ sí orí òkè náà.
And Joshua does as Moses has said to him, to fight with Amalek, and Moses, Aaron, and Hur have gone up [to] the top of the height;
11 Níwọ́n ìgbà tí Mose bá gbé apá rẹ̀ sókè, Israẹli n borí ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí ó bá sì rẹ apá rẹ̀ sílẹ̀, Amaleki a sì borí.
and it has come to pass, when Moses lifts up his hand, that Israel has been mighty, and when he lets his hands rest, that Amalek has been mighty.
12 Ṣùgbọ́n apá ń ro Mose, wọ́n mú òkúta, wọ́n sì fi sí abẹ́ rẹ̀, ó sì jókòó lé òkúta náà; Aaroni àti Huri sì mu ní apá rẹ̀, ọ̀kan ní apá ọ̀tún àti èkejì ni apá òsì; apá rẹ̀ méjèèjì sì dúró gangan títí di ìgbà ti oòrùn wọ.
And the hands of Moses [are] heavy, and they take a stone and set [it] under him, and he sits on it, and Aaron and Hur have taken hold on his hands, one on this [side] and one on that [side]; and his hands are steadfast until the going in of the sun;
13 Joṣua sì fi ojú idà ṣẹ́gun àwọn ará Amaleki.
and Joshua weakens Amalek and his people by the mouth of the sword.
14 Olúwa sì sọ fun Mose pé. “Kọ èyí sì inú ìwé fún ìrántí, kí o sì sọ fún Joṣua pẹ̀lú; nítorí èmi yóò pa ìrántí Amaleki run pátápátá kúrò lábẹ́ ọ̀run.”
And YHWH says to Moses, “Write this, a memorial in a Scroll, and set [it] in the ears of Joshua, that I utterly wipe away the remembrance of Amalek from under the heavens”;
15 Mose sì tẹ́ pẹpẹ kan, ó sì sọ orúkọ pẹpẹ náà ní Olúwa ni Àsíá mi.
and Moses builds an altar, and calls its name YHWH-Nissi,
16 Ó wí pé, “A gbé ọwọ́ sókè sí ìtẹ́ Olúwa. Olúwa yóò bá Amaleki jagun láti ìran dé ìran.”
and says, “Because a hand [is] on the throne of YAH, war [is] to YHWH with Amalek from generation [to] generation.”
