Water From the Rock...
1.
And all the congregation of the children of Yisra`el set out on their journey from the Wilderness of Sin, according to the command of YHWH, and camped in Rephidim. And there was no water for the people to drink.
2.
Therefore the people strove with Mosheh, and said, 'Give us water to drink.' And Mosheh said to them, 'Why do you strive with me? Why do you try YHWH?'
3.
And the people thirsted there for water, and the people grumbled against Mosheh, and said, 'Why did you bring us out of Mitsrayim, to kill us and our children and our livestock with thirst?'
4.
Then Mosheh cried out to YHWH, saying, 'What am I to do with this people? Yet a little and they shall stone me!'
5.
And YHWH said to Mosheh, 'Pass over before the people, and take with you some of the elders of Yisra'el. And take in your hand your rod with which you smote the river, and go.
6.
'See, I am standing before you there on the rock in Horeb. And you shall smite the rock, and water shall come out of it, and the people shall drink.' And Mosheh did so before the eyes of the elders of Yisra'el.
7.
And he called the name of the place Massah and Meribah, because of the 'strife' of the children of Yisra'el, and because they 'tried' YHWH, saying, 'Is YHWH in our midst or not?'
The Amalekites Defeated...
8.
And Amaleq came and fought with Yisra`el in Rephidim.
9.
And Mosheh said to Yehoshua, 'Choose for us men and go out, fight with Amaleq. Tomorrow I am stationing myself on the top of the hill with the rod of Elohim in my hand.'
10.
And Yehoshua did as Mosheh said to him, to fight with Amaleq. And Mosheh, Aharon, and Hur went up to the top of the hill.
11.
And it came to be, when Mosheh held up his hand, that Yisra'el prevailed. And when he let down his hand, Amaleq prevailed.
12.
But Mosheh's hands were heavy, so they took a stone and put it under him, and he sat on it. And Aharon and Hur supported his hands, one on one side, and the other on the other side. And his hands were steady until the going down of the sun.
13.
And Yehoshua defeated Amaleq and his people with the edge of the sword.
14.
And YHWH said to Mosheh, 'Write this for a remembrance in the book and recite it in the hearing of Yehoshua, that I shall completely blot out the remembrance of Amaleq from under the heavens.'
15.
And Mosheh built an altar and called its name, YHWH Nissi,
16.
for he said, 'Because a hand is on the throne of Yah, YHWH is to fight against Amaleq, from generation to generation.'
