1 All the congregation of the children of Israel traveled from the wilderness of Sin, starting according to YHWH’s commandment, and encamped in Rephidim; but there was no water for the people to drink. Exodus 17:1WEB
2 Therefore 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 YHWH?” Exodus 17:2WEB
3 The people were thirsty for water there; so 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?” Exodus 17:3WEB
4 Moses cried to YHWH, saying, “What shall I do with these people? They are almost ready to stone me.” Exodus 17:4WEB
5 YHWH 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. Exodus 17:5WEB
6 Behold, 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. Exodus 17:6WEB
7 He called the name of the place Massah, and Meribah, because the children of Israel quarreled, and because they tested YHWH, saying, “Is YHWH among us, or not?” Exodus 17:7WEB
8 Then Amalek came and fought with Israel in Rephidim. Exodus 17:8WEB
9 Moses said to Joshua, “Choose men for us, and go out to fight with Amalek. Tomorrow I will stand on the top of the hill with God’s rod in my hand.” Exodus 17:9WEB
10 So Joshua did as Moses had told him, and fought with Amalek; and Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to the top of the hill. Exodus 17:10WEB
11 When Moses held up his hand, Israel prevailed. When he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed. Exodus 17:11WEB
12 But Moses’ hands were heavy; so 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. Exodus 17:12WEB
13 Joshua defeated Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword. Exodus 17:13WEB
14 YHWH 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.” Exodus 17:14WEB
