AAnd the whole multitude of the children
of Israel w&ebar;te on their iourneys
out of the wyldernes of Sin (as the
LORDE c&obar;maunded th&ebar;) ∧ pitched in Raphidim.
noteThen had the people no water to drynke.
And they chode &wt; Moses, ∧ sayde: Geue
vs water, þt; we maye drynke. Moses sayde
vnto th&ebar;: Why chyde ye &wt; me? Wherfore t&ebar;pte
ye þe; LORDE? But whan the people thyrsted
there for water, they murmured agaynst
Moses, ∧ sayde: Wherfore hast thou caused
vs to come out of Egipte? note to let vs, oure children,
and oure catell dye of honger?
B Moses cried vnto the LORDE, and sayde:
What shal I do &wt; this people? They are allmost
ready to stone me. The LORDE saide vnto
him: Go before the people, ∧ take some of
the elders of Israel with þe;, and take in thine
hande thy staff, wherwith thou smotest
the water, and go thy waye: Beholde, I wyl
stonde there before the vpon a rock in Horeb, note
there shalt thou smyte the rocke, so shall
there water runne out, that the people maye
drynke. Moses dyd so before the elders of
Israel. noteThen was that place called Massa
Meriba, because of the chydinge of the children
of Israel, and because they tempted þe;
LORDE, and sayde: Is the LORDE amonge
vs, or not?

C Then came Ameleck, ∧ fought agaynst
Israel in Raphidim. And Moses sayde vnto
Iosua: Chose vs out men, go out, ∧ fight
against Amaleck, tomorow wil I st&obar;de vp&obar;
the toppe of the hyll, ∧ haue þe; staff of God
in my hande. And Iosua dyd as Moses bade
him, ∧ fought agaynst Amalek. Moses
∧ Aaron ∧ Hur wente vp to þe; toppe of the
hyll. And wh&abar; Moses helde vp his h&abar;de, Israel
had the victory: but whan he let downe
his hande, Amalek had the victory. note
But Moses h&abar;des were heuy, therfore toke
they a stone, ∧ layed it vnder him, that he
might syt vpon it. And Aaron ∧ Hur stayed
vp his h&abar;des, the one vpon the one syde, and
the other vpon þe; other syde. So his handes
were stedfast vnto þe; Sonne wente downe.
And Iosua discomfited Amalek, ∧ his people
thorow the edge of the swerde.
And þe; LORDE sayde vnto Moses: Wryte
this for a rem&ebar;braunce in a boke, ∧ c&obar;mytte it
vnto þe; eares of Iosua: note for I wyll rote out
Amalek from vnder heauen, so that he shall
nomore be remembred. And Moses buylded
an altare vnto the LORDE, and called it:
note The LORDE Nissi, for he sayde: The battayll
of the LORDE shalbe agaynst Amalek
thorow an hande vnder the defence of
God from childe to childes childe.
