< Exodus 17 >

1 And all the Congregation of the children of Israel departed from the wildernesse of Sin, by their iourneyes at the commandement of the Lord, and camped in Rephidim, where was no water for the people to drinke.
Oganda jo-Israel duto nochako wuoth kawuok e thim mar Sin, ka giwuotho ka gi kacha mana kaka Jehova Nyasaye nochikogi. Ne gibworo Refidim, to ne onge pi mane ji nyalo modho.
2 Wherefore the people contended with Moses, and sayde, Giue vs water that we may drinke. And Moses sayde vnto them, Why contende yee with me? wherefore do ye tempt the Lord?
Kuom mano negidhawo gi Musa kagiwacho niya, “Miwa pi wamodhi.” To Musa nodwokogi niya “En angʼo momiyo udhawo koda? En angʼo momiyo uketo Jehova Nyasaye e tem?”
3 So the people thirsted there for water, and the people murmured against Moses, and said, Wherefore hast thou thus brought vs out of Egypt to kill vs and our children and our cattel with thirst?
To kata kamano ji ne riyo mar pi oloyo kanyo, kendo ji nongʼur ni Musa. Negiwachone niya, “En angʼo momiyo nigolowa Misri mondo nyithindwa kaachiel gi jambwa otho?”
4 And Moses cried to the Lord, saying, What shall I do to this people? for they be almost ready to stone me.
Eka Musa noywak ni Jehova Nyasaye niya, “En angʼo mowinjore atim kod jogi? Gichiegni kata mana goya gi kite.”
5 And ye Lord answered to Moses, Goe before the people, and take with thee of the Elders of Israel: and thy rod, wherewith thou smotest the riuer, take in thine hand, and go:
Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya, “Wuothi idhi e nyim oganda. Kaw jodong jo-Israel moko mondo odhi kodi kendo kaw luth mane ichwadogo aora Nael mondo idhigo.
6 Behold, I will stand there before thee vpon the rocke in Horeb, and thou shalt smite on the rocke, and water shall come out of it, that the people may drinke. And Moses did so in the sight of the Elders of Israel.
Abiro chungʼ e nyimi e bath lwanda mantie Horeb. Chwad lwanda to pi nowuog kuome mi oganda nomodhi.” Kuom Mano Musa notimo kamano e nyim jodong jo-Israel duto.
7 And he called the name of the place, Massah and Meribah, because of the contention of the children of Israel, and because they had tempted the Lord, saying, Is the Lord among vs, or no?
Eka nochako kanyo ni Masa kod Meriba nikech jo-Israel nogwandore kanyo to bende nikech ne gitemo Jehova Nyasaye kagiwacho niya, “Bende Jehova Nyasaye ni e dierwa koso?”
8 Then came Amalek and fought with Israel in Rephidim.
Jo-Amalek nobiro momonjo jo-Israel Refidim.
9 And Moses sayde to Ioshua, Chuse vs out men, and go fight with Amalek: to morowe I will stande on the toppe of the hill with the rod of God in mine hand.
Eka Musa nonyiso Joshua niya, “Yier jomoko kuom jowa mondo idhi iked gi jo-Amalek. Kiny anachungʼ ewi got gi ludh Nyasaye e lweta.”
10 So Ioshua did as Moses bad him, and fought with Amalek: and Moses, Aaron, and Hur, went vp to the top of the hill.
Kuom mano Joshua nokedo gi jo-Amalek mana kaka Musa nochiko, kendo Musa gi Harun kod Hur nodhi ewi got.
11 And when Moses helde vp his hande, Israel preuailed: but when he let his hande downe, Amalek preuailed.
E kinde duto mane Musa osiko kotingʼo bedene malo, to jo-Israel ne loyo, to kane Musa odwoko bedene piny, to jo-Amalek ema ne loyo.
12 Nowe Moses handes were heauy: therefore they tooke a stone and put it vnder him, and hee sate vpon it: and Aaron and Hur stayed vp his hands, the one on the one side, and the other on the other side: so his hands were steady vntill the going downe of the sunne.
Ka bede Musa nojony, to negikawo kidi mi giketone mondo obedie. Harun gi Hur ne ojuko bedene kotingʼo malo, ka ngʼato achiel omako bade konchiel, to machielo omako komachielo, omiyo bedene nosiko kochungʼ tir nyaka podho chiengʼ.
13 And Ioshua discomfited Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword.
Kuom mano Joshua noloyo jolwenj jo-Amalek mana gi ligangla.
14 And the Lord sayde to Moses, Write this for a remembrance in the booke, and rehearse it to Ioshua: for I will vtterly put out the remembrance of Amalek from vnder heauen.
Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya, “Ndik wachni e kitap ndiko kaka gima ibiro par bende nyaka ine ni Joshua owinje, nimar abiro tieko jo-Amalek duto e piny ka.”
15 (And Moses builte an altar and called the name of it, Iehouah-nissi)
Musa nogero kendo mar misango mochake ni “Jehova Nyasaye en banderana.”
16 Also he said, The Lord hath sworne, that he will haue warre with Amalek from generation to generation.
Nowacho kama, “Nimar bede notingʼ malo e nyim kom duongʼ mar Jehova Nyasaye. Kendo Jehova Nyasaye noked gi jo-Amalek e tienge duto.”
