Exodus 17

1 The people murmur for water at Rephidim. 5 God sendeth them for water to the rock in Horeb. 8 Amalek is overcome by the holding up of Moses' hands. 15 Moses buildeth the altar JEHOVAH-nissi.

 17:1 ¶ And all x3605 the congregation 5712 of the children 1121 of Israel 3478 journeyed 5265 z8799 from the wilderness 4057 x4480 of Sin, 5512 after their journeys, 4550 according to x5921 the commandment 6310 of the LORD, 3068 and pitched 2583 z8799 in Rephidim: 7508 and [there was] no x369 water 4325 for the people 5971 to drink. 8354 z8800

 17:2 Wherefore the people 5971 did chide 7378 z8799 with x5973 Moses, 4872 and said, 559 z8799 Give 5414 z8798 us water 4325 that we may drink. 8354 z8799 And Moses 4872 said 559 z8799 unto them, Why x4100 chide 7378 z8799 ye with x5978 me? wherefore x4100 do ye tempt 5254 z8762 x853 the LORD? 3068

 17:3 And the people 5971 thirsted 6770 z8799 there x8033 for water; 4325 and the people 5971 murmured 3885 z8686 against x5921 Moses, 4872 and said, 559 z8799 Wherefore x4100 [is] this x2088 [that] thou hast brought y5927 z8689 us up x5927 out of Egypt, 4714 x4480 to kill 4191 z8687 us and our children 1121 and our cattle 4735 with thirst? 6772

 17:4 And Moses 4872 cried 6817 z8799 unto x413 the LORD, 3068 saying, 559 z8800 What x4100 shall I do 6213 z8799 unto this x2088 people? 5971 they be almost 4592 ready x5750 to stone 5619 z8804 me.

 17:5 And the LORD 3068 said 559 z8799 unto x413 Moses, 4872 Go on 5674 z8798 before 6440 the people, 5971 and take 3947 z8798 with x854 thee of the elders 2205 x4480 of Israel; 3478 and thy rod, 4294 wherewith x834 thou smotest 5221 z8689 x853 the river, 2975 take 3947 z8798 in thine hand, 3027 and go. 1980 z8804

 17:6 Behold, x2009 I will stand 5975 z8802 before 6440 thee there x8033 upon x5921 the rock 6697 in Horeb; 2722 and thou shalt smite 5221 z8689 the rock, 6697 and there shall come 3318 z8804 water 4325 out of x4480 it, that the people 5971 may drink. 8354 z8804 And Moses 4872 did 6213 z8799 so x3651 in the sight 5869 of the elders 2205 of Israel. 3478

 17:7 And he called 7121 z8799 the name 8034 of the place 4725 Massah, 4532 and Meribah, 4809 because of x5921 the chiding 7379 of the children 1121 of Israel, 3478 and because x5921 they tempted 5254 z8763 x853 the LORD, 3068 saying, 559 z8800 Is 3426 the LORD 3068 among 7130 us, or x518 not? x369

 17:8 ¶ Then came 935 z8799 Amalek, 6002 and fought 3898 z8735 with x5973 Israel 3478 in Rephidim. 7508

 17:9 And Moses 4872 said 559 z8799 unto x413 Joshua, 3091 Choose us out 977 z8798 men, y582 x376 and go out, 3318 z8798 fight 3898 z8734 with Amalek: 6002 tomorrow 4279 I x595 will stand 5324 z8737 on x5921 the top 7218 of the hill 1389 with the rod 4294 of God 430 in mine hand. 3027

 17:10 So Joshua 3091 did 6213 z8799 as x834 Moses 4872 had said 559 z8804 to him, and fought 3898 z8736 with Amalek: 6002 and Moses, 4872 Aaron, 175 and Hur 2354 went up 5927 z8804 to the top 7218 of the hill. 1389

 17:11 And it came to pass, x1961 when x834 Moses 4872 held up 7311 z8686 his hand, 3027 that Israel 3478 prevailed: 1396 z8804 and when x834 he let down 5117 z8686 his hand, 3027 Amalek 6002 prevailed. 1396 z8804

 17:12 But Moses' 4872 hands 3027 [were] heavy; 3515 and they took 3947 z8799 a stone, 68 and put 7760 z8799 [it] under x8478 him, and he sat 3427 z8799 thereon; x5921 and Aaron 175 and Hur 2354 stayed up 8551 z8804 his hands, 3027 the one x259 on the one side, y259 x4480 x2088 and the other x259 on the other side; y259 x4480 x2088 and his hands 3027 were x1961 steady 530 until x5704 the going down 935 z8800 of the sun. 8121

 17:13 And Joshua 3091 discomfited 2522 z8799 x853 Amalek 6002 and his people 5971 with the edge 6310 of the sword. 2719

 17:14 And the LORD 3068 said 559 z8799 unto x413 Moses, 4872 Write 3789 z8798 this x2063 [for] a memorial 2146 in a book, 5612 and rehearse 7760 z8798 [it] in the ears 241 of Joshua: 3091 for x3588 I will utterly y4229 z8800 put out 4229 z8799 x853 the remembrance 2143 of Amalek 6002 from under x4480 x8478 heaven. 8064

 17:15 And Moses 4872 built 1129 z8799 an altar, 4196 and called 7121 z8799 the name 8034 of it Jehovah-nissi: 3071

 17:16 For he said, 559 z8799 Because x3588 the LORD 3050 hath sworn 3027 3676 x5921 [that] the LORD 3068 [will have] war 4421 with Amalek 6002 from generation 1755 x4480 to generation. 1755
