uMoses unika abantu amanzi ngokubetha iliwa ngentonga yakhe
1Lemka ke lonke ibandla loonyana bakaSirayeli entlango yaseTsin ngokweehambo zabo, ngokomlomo kaYehova, baya eRefidim. Akwabakho manzi okuba basele abantu. 2Balwa abantu noMoses, bathi, Siphe amanzi, sisele; Wathi uMoses kubo, Yini na ukuba nihlukane nam? uyambuza na uYehova? 3Banxanelwe amanzi apho abantu; abantu bamkrokrela uMoses, bathi, Nguwe owasikhupha eYiputa, ukuze usibulale ngenxano, thina, noonyana bethu, nemfuyo yethu? 4uMoses wabiza uYehova, wathi, Ndiya kubathini na aba bantu? Baza kundixuluba ngamatye. 5Wathi uYehova kuMoses, Phuma phambi kwabantu, uthabathe inxenye yamadoda amakhulu akwaSirayeli; nentonga yakho obuzibophe ngayo, yiphathe ngesandla sakho, uhambe. 6Yabona, ndiya kuma nawe khona, phezu kweliwa laseHorebhe; yaye uya kulibetha iliwa, kuphume amanzi kulo ukuze basele abantu. Wenjenjalo ke uMoses phambi kwamadoda amakhulu akwaSirayeli. 7Wathi igama laloo ndawo yiMasa neMeribha, ngenxa yengxabano yoonyana bakaSirayeli, nangenxa yokubuza kwabo kuYehova, besithi, uYehova uphakathi kwethu, akakho, kusini na? 8Emva koko uAmaleki weza kulwa noonyana bakaSirayeli eRefidim. 9Wathi uMoses kuYoshuwa, Sinyulele amadoda, uphume uwaxabele ama-Amaleki; Mna ngomso ndiya kuma encotsheni yenduli, ndiphethe intonga kaThixo ngesandla sam. 10Wenza uYoshuwa njengoko uMoses wamwiselayo umthetho, walwa nama-Amaleki; benyuka ooMoses, noAron, noHure, baya encotsheni yenduli. 11Wasiphakamisa uMoses isandla sakhe, boyisa oonyana bakaSirayeli; wathi akuthambathisa isandla sakhe, kweyisa uAmaleki. 12Zaba nzima ke izandla zikaMoses; Bathabatha ilitye, balibeka phantsi kwakhe, wahlala phezu kwalo; Baziphakamisa ooAron noHure izandla zabo, omnye engapha, omnye engaphaya; zaza izandla zakhe zomelela lada latshona ilanga. 13uYoshuwa wamdubaduba uAmaleki nabantu bakhe ngohlangothi lwentshuntshe. 14Wathi uYehova kuMoses, Kubhale encwadini ibe sisikhumbuzo, ukuthethe apho asekuva uYoshuwa; ngokuba ndiya kukuphelisa ukukhunjulwa kuka-Amaleki phantsi kwezulu. 15Wakha uMoses isibingelelo, wathi igama laso nguYehova-Nisi. 16Ngenxa yokuba wathi: “Ngenxa yokuba uYehova efungile ukuba uYehova uya kumhlasela uAmaleki kwizizukulwana ngezizukulwana.
