1. 1LUGAwo ekibiina kyonna eky’abaana ba Isirayiri ne kisitula okuva mu ddungu lya Sini, ne batambula ng’ekiragiro kya Mukama bwe kyali. Ne bakuba eweema zaabwe mu Lefidimu, naye nga tewaliiwo mazzi bantu ge banaanywa.BSBBSB: Then the whole congregation of Israel left the Desert of Sin, moving from place to place as the LORD commanded. They camped at Rephidim, but there was no water for the people to drink.
2. 2LUGAbantu ne bayombesa Musa nga bagamba nti, “Tuwe amazzi tunywe.” Musa n’abaddamu nti, “Lwaki munnyombesa? Lwaki mugezesa Mukama?”BSBBSB: So the people contended with Moses, “Give us water to drink.” “Why do you contend with me?” Moses replied. “Why do you test the LORD?”
3. 3LUGNaye abantu ennyonta y’amazzi n’ebaluma, ne beemulugunyiza Musa. Ne bagamba nti, “Lwaki watuggya mu Misiri, ennyonta okututtira wano, ffe n’abaana baffe n’ebisibo byaffe?”BSBBSB: But the people thirsted for water there, and they grumbled against Moses: “Why have you brought us out of Egypt—to make us and our children and livestock die of thirst?”
4. 4LUGMusa n’akaabira Mukama nti, “Abantu bano mbakole ntya? Baabano baagala kunkuba mayinja.”BSBBSB: Then Moses cried out to the LORD, “What should I do with these people? A little more and they will stone me!”
5. 5LUGMukama n’addamu Musa nti, “Abantu abo bakulembere, otwale ne ku bakulembeze ba Isirayiri; n’omuggo gwo gwe wakubisa ku mugga genda nagwo ng’ogukutte mu mukono gwo, mutambule.BSBBSB: And the LORD said to Moses, “Walk on ahead of the people and take some of the elders of Israel with you. Take along in your hand the staff with which you struck the Nile, and go.
6. 6LUGNange nzija kukwesooka mu maaso nyimirire ku lwazi e Kolebu, onookuba olwazi ne muvaamu amazzi abantu banywe.” Musa n’akola bw’atyo nga n’abakulembeze ba Isirayiri balaba.BSBBSB: Behold, I will stand there before you by the rock at Horeb. And when you strike the rock, water will come out of it for the people to drink.” So Moses did this in the sight of the elders of Israel.
7. 7LUGEkifo ekyo n’akituuma erinnya Masa ne Meriba, olw’okuyomba kw’abaana ba Isirayiri, n’olw’okugezesa Mukama nga bagamba nti, “Mukama waali mu ffe oba taliiwo?”BSBBSB: He named the place Massah and Meribah because the Israelites quarreled, and because they tested the LORD, saying, “Is the LORD among us or not?”
8. 8LUGAwo Abamaleki ne bajja balwane ne Isirayiri mu Lefidimu.BSBBSB: After this, the Amalekites came and attacked the Israelites at Rephidim.
9. 9LUGMusa n’agamba Yoswa nti, “Tuyunguliremu abasajja bagende balwanyise Abamaleki. Enkya nzija kuyimirira ku ntikko y’olusozi nga nkutte omuggo gwa Katonda mu mukono gwange.”BSBBSB: So Moses said to Joshua, “Choose some of our men and go out to fight the Amalekites. Tomorrow I will stand on the hilltop with the staff of God in my hand.”
10. 10LUGYoswa n’akola nga Musa bwe yamulagira, n’alwana n’Abamaleki. Musa ne Alooni ne Kuli ne bambuka ku ntikko y’olusozi.BSBBSB: Joshua did as Moses had instructed him and fought against the Amalekites, while Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to the top of the hill.
11. 11LUGMusa bwe yawanikanga emikono gye, Abayisirayiri nga bagoba, naye bwe yagissanga, nga Abamaleki bagoba.BSBBSB: As long as Moses held up his hands, Israel prevailed; but when he lowered them, Amalek prevailed.
12. 12LUGEmikono gya Musa ne gitandika okumufuuyirira. Alooni ne Kuli ne bamuleetera ejjinja, n’atuula okwo; ne bawanirira emikono gye, omu ng’ali ku ludda olumu, ne munne ku ludda olulala, emikono gye olwo ne ginywerera waggulu okutuusa enjuba lwe yagwa.BSBBSB: When Moses’ hands grew heavy, they took a stone and put it under him, and he sat on it. Then Aaron and Hur held his hands up, one on each side, so that his hands remained steady until the sun went down.
13. 13LUGYoswa n’awangula Abamaleki ng’akozesa obwogi bw’ekitala.BSBBSB: So Joshua overwhelmed Amalek and his army with the sword.
14. 14LUGAwo Mukama n’agamba Musa nti, “Kino kiwandiike mu kitabo kiryoke kijjukirwenga ennaku zonna, era Yoswa asaana akimanye, kubanga Abamaleki ŋŋenda kubasangulirawo ddala ku nsi.”BSBBSB: Then the LORD said to Moses, “Write this on a scroll as a reminder and recite it to Joshua, because I will utterly blot out the memory of Amalek from under heaven.”
15. 15LUGMusa n’azimbawo ekyoto n’akituuma erinnya Mukama ye Bendera Yange.BSBBSB: And Moses built an altar and named it The LORD Is My Banner.
16. 16LUGN’agamba nti, “Kubanga Abamaleki baalwanyisa entebe ya Mukama ey’obwakabaka, Mukama alayidde okubalwanyisa emirembe gyonna.”BSBBSB: “Indeed,” he said, “a hand was lifted up toward the throne of the LORD. The LORD will war against Amalek from generation to generation.”
