Basic HTML Version
chiding of the children of Israel, and because they tempted the L
ORD
, saying, Is the L
ORD
among
us, or not?
8
Then came Amalek, and fought with Israel in Rephidim.
9
And Moses said unto Joshua, Choose
us out men, and go out, fight with Amalek: to morrow I will stand on the top of the hill with the
rod of God in mine hand.
10
So Joshua did as Moses had said to him, and fought with Amalek: and
Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to the top of the hill.
11
And it came to pass, when Moses held up
his hand, that Israel prevailed: and when he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed.
12
But Moses’
hands
were
heavy; and they took a stone, and put
it
under him, and he sat thereon; and Aaron and
Hur stayed up his hands, the one on the one side, and the other on the other side; and his hands
were steady until the going down of the sun.
13
And Joshua discomfited Amalek and his people
with the edge of the sword.
14
And the L
ORD
said unto Moses, Write this
for
a memorial in a book,
and rehearse
it
in the ears of Joshua: for I will utterly put out the remembrance of Amalek from
under heaven.
15
And Moses built an altar, and called the name of it Jehovah-nissi:
16
For he said,
Because the L
ORD
hath sworn
that
the L
ORD
will have
war with Amalek from generation to generation.
CHAPTER 18
When Jethro, the priest of Midian, Moses’ father in law, heard of all that God had done for Moses,
and for Israel his people,
and
that the L
ORD
had brought Israel out of Egypt;
2
Then Jethro, Moses’
father in law, took Zipporah, Moses’ wife, after he had sent her back,
3
And her two sons; of which
the name of the one
was
Gershom; for he said, I have been an alien in a strange land:
4
And the
name of the other
was
Eliezer; for the God of my father,
said he, was
mine help, and delivered me
from the sword of Pharaoh:
5
And Jethro, Moses’ father in law, came with his sons and his wife
unto Moses into the wilderness, where he encamped at the mount of God:
6
And he said unto Moses,
I thy father in law Jethro am come unto thee, and thy wife, and her two sons with her.
7
And Moses went out to meet his father in law, and did obeisance, and kissed him; and they
asked each other of
their
welfare; and they came into the tent.
8
And Moses told his father in law
all that the L
ORD
had done unto Pharaoh and to the Egyptians for Israel’s sake,
and
all the travail
that had come upon them by the way, and
how
the L
ORD
delivered them.
9
And Jethro rejoiced for
all the goodness which the L
ORD
had done to Israel, whom he had delivered out of the hand of the
Egyptians.
10
And Jethro said, Blessed
be
the L
ORD
, who hath delivered you out of the hand of the
Egyptians, and out of the hand of Pharaoh, who hath delivered the people from under the hand of
the Egyptians.
11
Now I know that the L
ORD
is
greater than all gods: for in the thing wherein they
dealt proudly
he was
above them.
12
And Jethro, Moses’ father in law, took a burnt offering and
sacrifices for God: and Aaron came, and all the elders of Israel, to eat bread with Moses’ father in
law before God.
