¹And all the congregation of the children of Israel journeyed from the wilderness of Sin, after their journeys, according to the commandment of the LORD, and pitched in Rephidim: and there was no water for the people to drink.

¹Eb laj Israel queßel saß li chaki chßochß Sin xcßabaß. Moco yal jun ta nak queßcôeb nak yôqueb chi xic. Cocß aj saß nequeßhilan, joß quiyeheß reheb xban li Kâcuaß Dios. Coxeßxtau li naßajej Refidim xcßabaß ut aran queßxyîb xmuhebâleb. Aran mâcßaß haß re teßrucß.

²Wherefore the people did chide with Moses, and said, Give us water that we may drink. And Moses said unto them, Why chide ye with me? wherefore do ye tempt the LORD?

²Ut eb laj Israel queßoc cuißchic chixcuechßinquil laj Moisés. —Qßue kucßa, chanqueb re. Laj Moisés quixye reheb: —¿Cßaßut nak yôquex chincuechßinquil? ¿Cßaßut nak nequecuechßi rix li Dios? chan.

³And the people thirsted there for water; and the people murmured against Moses, and said, Wherefore is this that thou hast brought us up out of Egypt, to kill us and our children and our cattle with thirst?

³Cßajoß nak teßchakik reheb li cristian. Queßxcuechßi laj Moisés ut queßxye re: —¿Cßaßut nak xoâcuisi chak Egipto? ¿Cßaßut nak xoâcßam chak arin? Yô chikacamsinquil li chaki el. Eb li kacocßal ut eb li kaquetômk teßcâmk xban chaki el, chanqueb.

⁴And Moses cried unto the LORD, saying, What shall I do unto this people? they be almost ready to stone me.

⁴Laj Moisés quitijoc chiru li Kâcuaß Dios ut quixye: —¿Cßaßru tinbânu riqßuineb li tenamit? Oqueb re chincamsinquil chi pec, chan.

⁵And 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.

⁵Ut li Kâcuaß Dios quixye re laj Moisés: —Ayu. Numen chiruheb li tenamit. Cßameb châcuix li cuînk li nequeßcßamoc be saß xyânkeb. Ut tâcßam lâ xukß saß âcuukß li xataksi saß xbên li nimaß Nilo xcßabaß.

⁶Behold, 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.

⁶Aran toxinâtau saß li nimla pec li cuan saß li naßajej Horeb. Tâsacß li pec ut tâêlk chak li haß saß li pec re nak naru teßucßak, chan li Dios. Ut eb li cuînk yôqueb chi rilbal nak laj Moisés quixbânu joß quitaklâc cuiß xban li Dios.

⁷And he called the name of the place Massah, and Meribah, because of the chiding of the children of Israel, and because they tempted the LORD, saying, Is the LORD among us, or not?

⁷Laj Moisés quixqßue chokß xcßabaß li naßajej aßan Masah ut Meriba, xban nak eb laj Israel queßxcuechßi rix li Kâcuaß Dios ut queßxye: —¿Ma cuan li Dios kiqßuin malaj incßaß? chanqueb.

⁸Then came Amalek, and fought with Israel in Rephidim.

⁸Nak cuanqueb laj Israel saß li naßajej Refidim queßchal eb laj Amalec chi pletic riqßuineb.

⁹And Moses said unto Joshua, Choose us out men, and go out, fight with Amalek: to morrow I will stand on the top of the hill with the rod of God in mine hand.

⁹Laj Moisés quixye re laj Josué: —Tâsiqßueb ru li cuînk li teßxic chi pletic riqßuineb laj Amalec. Ut cuulaj tinxaklîk saß xbên li tzûl ut cuânk lin xukß saß cuukß li nacßutuc xcuanquil li Dios.

¹⁰So 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.

¹⁰Ut queßcôeb laj Josué chi pletic riqßuineb laj Amalec joß quiyeheß re laj Josué xban laj Moisés. Queßcôeb laj Moisés saß xbên tzûl rochbeneb laj Aarón ut laj Hur.

¹¹And it came to pass, when Moses held up his hand, that Israel prevailed: and when he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed.

¹¹Nak quixtaksi li rukß laj Moisés, kßaxal cauheb rib laj Israel. Ut nak quixcubsi li rukß laj Moisés, eb laj Amalec chic cauheb rib.

¹²But 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.

¹²Quilub chixtaksinquil li rukß laj Moisés. Tojoßnak laj Aarón rochben laj Hur queßxcßam chak jun li pec ut queßxqßue chokß xcßojaribâl. Laj Aarón ut laj Hur queßoc chixtenkßanquil lix tel re nak incßaß tâlûbk chixtaksinquil. Jun quixqßue rib saß xnim ukß ut li jun chic quixqßue rib saß xtzße. Chi joßcan queßxtaksi li rukß laj Moisés toj nak qui-oc li sakße.

¹³And Joshua discomfited Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword.

¹³Ut riqßuin aßan queßnumta laj Josué saß xbêneb laj Amalec.

¹⁴And 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.

¹⁴Ut li Dios quixye re laj Moisés: —Tâtzßîba retalil aßin saß junak hu re nak junelic cuânk saß xchßôleb. Tâye re laj Josué nak lâin tinrakok âtin saß xbêneb laj Amalec ut teßosokß chixjunileb, chan.

¹⁵And Moses built an altar, and called the name of it Jehovahnissi:

¹⁵Laj Moisés quixyîb jun li artal ut quixqßue chokß xcßabaß Jehová-nisi. Li cßabaßej aßan naraj naxye: “li Kâcuaß Dios naxqßue kacuanquil”.Ut laj Moisés quixye: —Xban nak eb laj Amalec queßxtiquib li plêt riqßuineb laj Israel, li Dios tâpletik riqßuin laj Amalec ut joß ajcuiß riqßuineb li ralal xcßajol ut riqßuineb li ri xmam, chan.

¹⁶For he said, Because the LORD hath sworn that the LORD will have war with Amalek from generation to generation.

¹⁶Ut laj Moisés quixye: —Xban nak eb laj Amalec queßxtiquib li plêt riqßuineb laj Israel, li Dios tâpletik riqßuin laj Amalec ut joß ajcuiß riqßuineb li ralal xcßajol ut riqßuineb li ri xmam, chan.
