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.
1 Israyla izey marga kulu tun ka dira Sin ganjo ra, gata ka koy gata, Rabbi lordo* boŋ. I zumbu Refidim. I jaŋ hari kaŋ borey ga haŋ.
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?”
2 Woodin se no borey kaŋ Musa boŋ da deeni. I ne: «M'iri no hari iri ma haŋ!» Musa ne: «Ifo se no araŋ ga kaŋ ay boŋ da deeni. Ifo se no araŋ ga Rabbi si mo?»
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?”
3 Noodin no jama maa jaw. Borey binde na Musa jance ka ne: «Ifo se no ni n'iri kaa Misira ra, zama ni m'iri wi da jaw, iri nd'iri izey d'iri almaney?»
4Moses cried to Yahweh, saying, “What shall I do with these people? They are almost ready to stone me.”
4 Musa binde hẽ Rabbi gaa ka ne: «Mate n'ay ga te borey wo se? A cindi kayna i m'ay catu-catu nda tondiyaŋ.»
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.
5 Rabbi ne Musa se: «Furo borey jine. Ma Israyla arkusey sambu ni banda. Ni goobo mo kaŋ ni na isa kar d'a, m'a sambu ni kamba ra ka koy.
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.
6 Guna, ay ga kay ni jine noodin Horeb ra, tondi falala boŋ. Ni ga tondo kar, hari ga fun a ra, borey ga haŋ mo.» Musa mo te yaadin Israyla arkusey jine.
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?”
7 A na nango maa daŋ Masa da Meriba, Israyla izey janca sabbay se. Zama i na Rabbi si ka ne: « Rabbi go iri do, wala a si no?»
8Then Amalek came and fought with Israel in Rephidim.
8 Alwaato din ra no Amalek kaa ka wongu nda Israyla Refidim ra.
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.”
9 Musa mo ne Yasuwa se: «Ma suuban ay se alboroyaŋ ka fatta ka wongu nda Amalek. Suba ay mo ga koy ka kay tudo yolla gaa da Rabbi goobo ay kambe ra.»
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.
10 Yasuwa binde te danga mate kaŋ Musa ci nga se ka wongu nda Amalek. Musa nda Haruna nda Hur kaaru tudo yolla gaa.
11It happened, when Moses held up his hand, that Israel prevailed; and when he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed.
11 A ciya binde, da Musa kambey go sallante beene, Israyla no ga te zaama, amma d'a na nga kambey ye ganda, Amalek no ga te zaama.
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.
12 Amma Musa kambey dusu. I binde na tondi fo sambu ka daŋ a cire, a ma goro a boŋ. Haruna nda Hur mo go ga kambey tambe, afo kambu woone gaa, afa mo go kambu fa din gaa. A kambey gonda kayyaŋ gaabi hala wayna kaŋyaŋ.
13Joshua defeated Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword.
13 Yasuwa na Amalek da nga jama zeeri mo da takuba.
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.”
14 Rabbi ne Musa se: «Ma woone hantum tira fo ra, zama i ma fong'a se. Ni m'a ci mo Yasuwa hangey ra: ay ga Amalek fonguyaŋ tuusu pat! beena cire.»
15Moses built an altar, and called its name Yahweh our Banner. Hebrew, Yahweh Nissi
15 Musa mo na feema cina k'a maa daŋ Rabbi Nissi, _kaŋ a feerijo ga ti Rabbi ya iri liiliwalo no|_.
16He said, “Yah has sworn: ‘Yahweh will have war with Amalek from generation to generation.’”
16 A ne: «Za kaŋ i na kambe salle Rabbi karga do haray, woodin se no Rabbi ga wongu nda Amalek zamana ka koy zamana.»
