17:2 Wherefore the people [H5971] did chide [H7378] with Moses [H4872] , and said [H559] , Give [H5414] us water [H4325] that we may drink [H8354] . And Moses [H4872] said [H559] unto them, Why chide [H7378] ye with me? wherefore do ye tempt [H5254] the LORD [H3068] ?
17:3 And the people [H5971] thirsted [H6770] there for water [H4325] ; and the people [H5971] murmured [H3885] against Moses [H4872] , and said [H559] , Wherefore [is] this [that] thou hast brought [H5927] us up out of Egypt [H4714] , to kill [H4191] us and our children [H1121] and our cattle [H4735] with thirst [H6772] ?
17:4 And Moses [H4872] cried [H6817] unto the LORD [H3068] , saying [H559] , What shall I do [H6213] unto this people [H5971] ? they be almost [H4592] ready to stone [H5619] me.
17:5 And the LORD [H3068] said [H559] unto Moses [H4872] , Go on [H5674] before [H6440] the people [H5971] , and take [H3947] with thee of the elders [H2205] of Israel [H3478] ; and thy rod [H4294] , wherewith thou smotest [H5221] the river [H2975] , take [H3947] in thine hand [H3027] , and go [H1980] .
17:6 Behold, I will stand [H5975] before [H6440] thee there upon the rock [H6697] in Horeb [H2722] ; and thou shalt smite [H5221] the rock [H6697] , and there shall come [H3318] water [H4325] out of it, that the people [H5971] may drink [H8354] . And Moses [H4872] did [H6213] so in the sight [H5869] of the elders [H2205] of Israel [H3478] .
17:7 And he called [H7121] the name [H8034] of the place [H4725] Massah [H4532] , and Meribah [H4809] , because of the chiding [H7379] of the children [H1121] of Israel [H3478] , and because they tempted [H5254] the LORD [H3068] , saying [H559] , Is [H3426] the LORD [H3068] among [H7130] us, or not?(Massah: that is, Temptation)(Meribah: that is, Chiding, or, Strife)
17:8 Then came [H935] Amalek [H6002] , and fought [H3898] with Israel [H3478] in Rephidim [H7508] .
17:9 And Moses [H4872] said [H559] unto Joshua [H3091] , Choose us out [H977] men [H582] , and go out [H3318] , fight [H3898] with Amalek [H6002] : to morrow [H4279] I will stand [H5324] on the top [H7218] of the hill [H1389] with the rod [H4294] of God [H430] in mine hand [H3027] .(Joshua: called Jesus)
17:10 So Joshua [H3091] did [H6213] as Moses [H4872] had said [H559] to him, and fought [H3898] with Amalek [H6002] : and Moses [H4872] , Aaron [H175] , and Hur [H2354] went up [H5927] to the top [H7218] of the hill [H1389] .
17:11 And it came to pass, when Moses [H4872] held up [H7311] his hand [H3027] , that Israel [H3478] prevailed [H1396] : and when he let down [H5117] his hand [H3027] , Amalek [H6002] prevailed [H1396] .
17:12 But Moses' [H4872] hands [H3027] [were] heavy [H3515] ; and they took [H3947] a stone [H68] , and put [H7760] [it] under him, and he sat [H3427] thereon; and Aaron [H175] and Hur [H2354] stayed up [H8551] his hands [H3027] , the one on the one side [H259] , and the other on the other side [H259] ; and his hands [H3027] were steady [H530] until the going down [H935] of the sun [H8121] .
17:13 And Joshua [H3091] discomfited [H2522] Amalek [H6002] and his people [H5971] with the edge [H6310] of the sword [H2719] .
17:14 And the LORD [H3068] said [H559] unto Moses [H4872] , Write [H3789] this [for] a memorial [H2146] in a book [H5612] , and rehearse [H7760] [it] in the ears [H241] of Joshua [H3091] : for I will utterly [H4229] put out [H4229] the remembrance [H2143] of Amalek [H6002] from under heaven [H8064] .
17:15 And Moses [H4872] built [H1129] an altar [H4196] , and called [H7121] the name [H8034] of it Jehovahnissi [H3071] :(Jehovahnissi: that is, The LORD my banner)
17:16 For he said [H559] , Because the LORD [H3050] hath sworn [H3027] [H3676] [that] the LORD [H3068] [will have] war [H4421] with Amalek [H6002] from generation [H1755] to generation [H1755] .(Because: or, Because the hand of Amalek is against the throne of the LORD, therefore, etc)(the LORD hath: Heb. the hand upon the throne of the LORD)
