¹And all the company of the sons of Israel journey from the wilderness of Sin, on their journeyings, by the command of Jehovah, and encamp in Rephidim, and there is no water for the people to drink;

¹Huan Israel suante omkhawm Sin gamdai akipanin a zin ua, TOUPA thupiak banga, a zin nung un Rephidim ah a puanin uh a kai uh: huchiin mite adia dawn ding tui a om kei.

²and the people strive with Moses, and say, `Give us water, and we drink.` And Moses saith to them, `What? — ye strive with me, what? — ye try Jehovah?`

²Huaijiakin mite Mosi toh a kina ua, Ka dawn ding uh tui hon piain, a chi ua. Huan Mosiin a kiang uah, Bang dinga hon kinakpih na hi ua- Bang dinga TOUPA zeet na hi ua? a chi a.

³and the people thirst there for water, and the people murmur against Moses, and say, `Why [is] this? — thou hast brought us up out of Egypt, to put us to death, also our sons and our cattle, with thirst.`

³Huchiin mite lah tui duhin huaiah a dang uha ataka; huan mite Mosi tungah a phun ua, dangtaknaa kou leh ka tate uh leh ka gante uh honthat dinga, bang dinga Aigupta gama kipan honla khia na hia? a chi ua.

⁴And Moses crieth to Jehovah, saying, `What do I to this people? yet a little, and they have stoned me.`

⁴Huan Mosi TOUPA kiangah a kapa, Hiai mite tungah bang ka hih dia? suanga hon deng lum dingin mansa phialin a om uh, a chi a.

⁵And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Pass over before the people, and take with thee of the elders of Israel, and thy rod with which thou hast smitten the River take in thy hand, and thou hast gone:

⁵Huan TOUPAN Mosi kiangah, Mite maah pai jel inla, Israel upate tonpihin; lui na satna chiang, na khutin tawi inla, paiin.

⁶Lo, I am standing before thee there on the rock in Horeb, and thou hast smitten on the rock, and waters have come out from it, and the people have drunk.` And Moses doth so before the eyes of the elders of Israel,

⁶Ngaiin, Horeb ah suangpi tungah huailaiah na maah ka ding ding; huchiin suangpi na sat dinga, huai akipanin tui a hongpawt khe ding, miten a dawn theihna ding un, a chi a Huchiin Israel upate muhin huchibangin Mosiin a hihta hi.

⁷and he calleth the name of the place Massah, and Meribah, because of the `strife` of the sons of Israel, and because of their `trying` Jehovah, saying, `Is Jehovah in our midst or not?`

⁷Huan a mun minin Masa, leh Meriba a chi hi, Israel suante salhna leh TOUPA zeeta, I lak ua TOUPA om hia, om lou- chia a gen jiakun

⁸And Amalek cometh, and fighteth with Israel in Rephidim,

⁸Huchihlaiin Amalek a hongkuana, Rephidim ah Israelte toh hongkidou uh.

⁹and Moses saith unto Joshua, `Choose for us men, and go out, fight with Amalek: to-morrow I am standing on the top of the hill, and the rod of God in my hand.`

⁹Huan Mosiin Joshua kiangah, Mi hontel khia inla, pawt khia niin, Amalek i dou ding: jingchiangin ka khuta Pathian chiang tawiin tang vum ah ka ding ding, a chi a.

¹⁰And Joshua doth as Moses hath said to him, to fight with Amalek, and Moses, Aaron, and Hur, have gone up [to] the top of the height;

¹⁰Huchibangin Mosiin a kianga a genbangin Joshuain a hiha, Amalek a dou ua: Mosi, Aron leh Hur tang vum ah a hoh touta uh.

¹¹and it hath come to pass, when Moses lifteth up his hand, that Israel hath been mighty, and when he letteth his hands rest, that Amalek hath been mighty.

¹¹Huan hichi ahia, Mosiin a khut a zantouh chiangin, Israelte a hat ua: a khut a khiak suk chiangin, Amalek a hat hi.

¹²And the hands of Moses [are] heavy, and they take a stone, and set [it] under him, and he sitteth on it: and Aaron and Hur have taken hold on his hands, on this side one, and on that one, and his hands are stedfast till the going in of the sun;

¹²Himahleh Mosi khut a gika; huchiin suang a la ua, a nuaiah a koih uh, huai tungah amah a tu hi; huchiin Aron leh Hurin a khut a dop touhsak uh, khat khatlam pangah, a dang adang lam pangah; huchiin ni tum matan a khut te a pang zou hi.

¹³and Joshua weakeneth Amalek and his people by the mouth of the sword.

¹³Huchiin Joshuain Amalek leh a mite a namsau hiamin a zouta hi.

¹⁴And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Write this, a memorial in a Book, and set [it] in the ears of Joshua, that I do utterly wipe away the remembrance of Amalek from under the heavens;`

¹⁴Huan TOUPAN Mosi kiangah, Theihgigena dingin hiai laibu ah gelh in huan Joshua bil ah gen nawnin: van nuai akipan Amalek theihgigena ka koih mang sipsip ding a hih jiakin, a chi hi.

¹⁵and Moses buildeth an altar, and calleth its name Jehovah-Nissi,

¹⁵Huchiin Mosiin maitam a doha a minin Jehovanissi a chi;Akhang akhanga TOUPAN Amalek toh kidouna a neih ding thua TOUPA a kichiam jiakin, a chih jiakin.

¹⁶and saith, `Because a hand [is] on the throne of Jah, war [is] to Jehovah with Amalek from generation — generation.`

¹⁶Akhang akhanga TOUPAN Amalek toh kidouna a neih ding thua TOUPA a kichiam jiakin, a chih jiakin.
