¹All the congregation of the children of Israel traveled from the wilderness of Sin, by their journeys, according to Yahweh’s commandment, and encamped in Rephidim; but there was no water for the people to drink.

¹Potom sa rušala celá obec synov Izraelových z púšte Sín po svojich stanoviskách na rozkaz Hospodinov, a rozložili sa táborom v Refidíme, kde nebolo vody na pitie pre ľud.

²Therefore the people quarreled with Moses, and said, “Give us water to drink.” Moses said to them, “Why do you quarrel with me? Why do you test Yahweh?”

²Preto sa vadil ľud s Mojžišom, a vraveli: Dajte nám vody, aby sme pili! A Mojžiš im povedal: Prečo sa vadíte so mnou? Prečo pokúšate Hospodina?

³The people were thirsty for water there; and the people murmured against Moses, and said, “Why have you brought us up out of Egypt, to kill us, our children, and our livestock with thirst?”

³A ľud tam bol smädný a žiadal si vody, reptal proti Mojžišovi a vravel: Prečo si nás vyviedol sem hore z Egypta, aby si umoril mňa i mojich synov i moje stáda dobytka smädom?

⁴Moses cried to Yahweh, saying, “What shall I do with these people? They are almost ready to stone me.”

⁴Vtedy kričal Mojžiš k Hospodinovi a vravel: Čo mám urobiť tomuto ľudu? Ešte niečo málo, a ukameňujú ma.

⁵Yahweh said to Moses, “Walk on before the people, and take the elders of Israel with you, and take the rod in your hand with which you struck the Nile, and go.

⁵A Hospodin riekol Mojžišovi: Idi pred ľudom a pojmi so sebou niektorých zo starších Izraelových i svoju palicu, ktorou si uderil rieku, vezmi do svojej ruky a pojdeš.

⁶Behold, I will stand before you there on the rock in Horeb. You shall strike the rock, and water will come out of it, that the people may drink.” Moses did so in the sight of the elders of Israel.

⁶Hľa, ja tam budem stáť pred tebou na skale na Hórebe. A uderíš na skalu, a vyjdú z nej vody, a ľud bude piť. A Mojžiš urobil tak pred očami starších Izraelových.

⁷He called the name of the place Massah, Massah means testing. and Meribah, Meribah means quarreling. because the children of Israel quarreled, and because they tested Yahweh, saying, “Is Yahweh among us, or not?”

⁷A nazval meno toho miesta Massa a Meríba, preto, že sa vadili synovia Izraelovi a preto, že pokúšali Hospodina tým, že vraveli: Či je Hospodin medzi nami, či nie je?

⁸Then Amalek came and fought with Israel in Rephidim.

⁸A prišiel Amalech a bojoval s Izraelom v Refidíme.

⁹Moses said to Joshua, “Choose men for us, and go out, fight with Amalek. Tomorrow I will stand on the top of the hill with God’s rod in my hand.”

⁹Vtedy povedal Mojžiš Jozuovi: Vyber nám mužov a vyjdi, bojuj proti Amalechovi. Ja budem zajtra stáť hore na brehu, a palica Božia bude v mojej ruke.

¹⁰So Joshua did as Moses had told him, and fought with Amalek; and Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to the top of the hill.

¹⁰A Jozua urobil tak, ako mu povedal Mojžiš, bojoval proti Amalechovi. A Mojžiš, Áron a Húr vyšli na vrch toho brehu.

¹¹It happened, when Moses held up his hand, that Israel prevailed; and when he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed.

¹¹A bolo, dokiaľ držal Mojžiš svoju ruku zdvihnutú, premáhal Izrael; ale keď spustil svoju ruku, premáhal Amalech.

¹²But Moses’ hands were heavy; and they took a stone, and put it under him, and he sat on it. Aaron and Hur held up his hands, the one on the one side, and the other on the other side. His hands were steady until sunset.

¹²A keďže boly ruky Mojžišove ťažké, vzali kameň a položili pod neho, a sadol naň, a Áron a Húr podopierali jeho ruky, jeden z jednej a druhý z druhej strany, a tak stály jeho ruky pevne až do západu slnca.

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

¹³Tak porazil Jozua Amalecha i jeho ľud ostrím meča.

¹⁴Yahweh said to Moses, “Write this for a memorial in a book, and rehearse it in the ears of Joshua: that I will utterly blot out the memory of Amalek from under the sky.”

¹⁴A Hospodin riekol Mojžišovi: Napíš to na pamiatku do knihy a vlož do uší Jozuu, že docela vyhladím pamiatku Amalechovu zpod nebies.

¹⁵Moses built an altar, and called its name Yahweh our Banner. Hebrew, Yahweh Nissi

¹⁵A Mojžiš vystavil oltár a nazval jeho meno: Hospodin môj prápor.

¹⁶He said, “Yah has sworn: ‘Yahweh will have war with Amalek from generation to generation.’”

¹⁶A povedal: Preto, že sa odvážil pozdvihnúť ruku proti stolici Hospodinovej, boj bude Hospodinovi proti Amalechovi z pokolenia na pokolenie.
