耶和华对摩西说,你手里拿着你先前击打河水的杖,带领以色列的几个长老,从百姓面前走过去。
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.
我必在何烈的磐石那里,站在你面前。你要击打磐石,从磐石里必有水流出来,使百姓可以喝。摩西就在以色列的长老眼前赦样行了。
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.
于是约书亚照着摩西对他所说的话行,和亚玛力人争战。摩西,亚伦,与户珥都上了山顶。
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.
摩西何时举手,以色列人就得胜,何时垂手,亚玛力人就得胜。
And it came to pass, when Moses held up his hand, that Israel prevailed: and when he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed.
但摩西的手发沉,他们就搬石头来,放在他以下,他就坐在上面。亚伦与户珥扶着他的手,一个在这边,一个在那边,他的手就稳住,直到日落的时候。
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.
约书亚用刀杀了亚玛力王和他的百姓。
And Joshua discomfited Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword.
耶和华对摩西说,我要将亚玛力的名号从天下全然涂抹了,你要将这话写在书上作纪念,又念给约书亚听。
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.
摩西筑了一座坛,起名叫耶和华尼西(就是耶和华是我旌旗的意思),
And Moses built an altar, and called the name of it Jehovahnissi:
又说,耶和华已经起了誓,必世世代代和亚玛力人争战。
For he said, Because the LORD hath sworn that the LORD will have war with Amalek from generation to generation.
耶和华对摩西说,
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
