Chap. XVII.
The people murmuring againe in Raphidim for want of drinck, our Lord
giueth them water out of a rock. 8. Amalech fighteth vvith them. And
Moyses lifting vp his hand in prayer, Israel ouercometh, otherwise Amalech
preuaileth.
1 Therfore al the multitude of the children of Israel
setting forward from the desert Sin, by their mansions,
-- --
Amalec.
according to the word of our Lord, camped in Raphidim,
where there was no water for the people to drinke.
2 Who
chiding against Moyses, said: Geue vs water, that we may
drinke. To whom Moyses answered: Why chide you against
me? Wherfore doe you tempt our Lord?
3 The people therfore
was thirstie there for lacke of water, and murmured
against Moyses, saying: Why didst thou make vs goe forth
out of Ægypt, to kil vs, and our children, and our beastes
with thirst.
4 And Moyses cried to our Lord, saying: What
shal I doe to this people? Yet a litle while, and they wil stone
me.
5 And our Lord said to Moyses: Goe before the people,
and take with thee of the ancients of Israel: and the rodde
wherwith thou didst strike the riuer, take in thy hand, and
goe.
6 Behold I wil stand there before thee, vpon the rocke
Horeb: and thou shalt strike the rocke, and water shal goe
out therof, that the people may drinke. Moyses did so before
the ancientes of Israel:
7 and he called the name of that
place, Temptation, because of the chiding of the children of
Israel, and for that they tempted our Lord, saying: Is the
Lord amongst vs or not?
8 And Amalec came, and fought
against Israel in Raphidim.
9 And Moyses sayd to Iosue:
Choose out men: and goe forth and fight against Amalec: to
morow I wil stand in the toppe of the hil, hauing the rodde
of God in my hand.
10 Iosue did as Moyses had spoken, and
he fought against Amalec: but Moyses and Aaron and Hur
went vp vpon the toppe of the hil.
11 And when Moyses
lifted vp his hands, Israel ouercame: but note if he did lette
them downe a little, Amalec ouercame.
12 And the handes
of Moyses were heauie: therfore they tooke a stone, and
putte vnder him, wherupon he sate: and Aaron and Hur
staied vp his handes on both sides. And it came to passe that
his handes were not wearie vntil sunne sette.
13 And Iosue
put Amalec to flight, & his people by the edge of the sword.
14 And our Lord said to Moyses: Write this for a monument
in a booke, & deliuer it to the eares of Iosue: for I wil destroy
the memorie of Amalec from vnder heauen.
15 And Moyses
builded an Altar: and called the name therof, Our Lord
my exaltation, saying:
16 Because the hand of our Lords
throne, and the warre of our Lord shal be against Amalec,
from generation vnto generation.
