Exodus 17: Douay-Rheims and Septuagint (Sixtine edition, 1587)
Douay-RheimsSeptuagint (Sixtine edition, 1587)
1Then all the multitude of the children of Israel setting forward from the desert of Sin, by their mansions, according to the word of the Lord, encamped in Raphidim, where there was no water for the people to drink.Καὶ ἀπῇρε πᾶσα συναγωγὴ υἱῶν Ἰσραὴλ ἐκ τῆς ἐρήμου Σὶν κατὰ παρεμβολὰς αὐτῶν, διὰ ῥήματος Κυρίου· καὶ παρενεβάλοσαν ἐν Ῥαφιδείν· οὐκ ἦν δὲ ὕδωρ τῷ λαῷ πιεῖν.
2And they chode with Moses, and said: Give us water, that we may drink. And Moses answered them: Why chide you with me? Wherefore do you tempt the Lord?Καὶ ἐλοιδορεῖτο ὁ λαὸς πρὸς Μωυσῆν, λέγοντες, δὸς ἡμῖν ὕδωρ, ἵνα πίωμεν· καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς Μωυσῆς, τί λοιδορεῖσθέ μοι, καὶ τί πειράζετε Κύριον;
3So the people were thirsty there for want of water, and murmured against Moses, saying: Why didst thou make us go forth out of Egypt, to kill us and our children, and our beasts with thirst?Ἐδίψησε δὲ ἐκεῖ ὁ λαὸς ὕδατι· καὶ διεγόγγυσεν ἐκεῖ ὁ λαὸς πρὸς Μωυσῆν, λέγοντες, ἱνατί τοῦτο; ἀνεβίβασας ἡμᾶς ἐξ Αἰγύπτου ἀποκτεῖναι ἡμᾶς καὶ τὰ τέκνα ἡμῶν καὶ τὰ κτήνη τῷ δίψει;
4And Moses cried to the Lord, saying: What shall I do to this people? Yet a little more and they will stone me.Ἐβόησε δὲ Μωυσῆς πρὸς Κύριον, λέγων, τί ποιήσω τῷ λαῷ τούτῳ; ἔτι μικρὸν, καὶ καταλιθοβολὴσουσί με.
5And the Lord said to Moses: God before the people, and take with thee of the ancients of Israel: and take in thy hand the rod wherewith thou didst strike the river, and go.Καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν, προπορεύου τοῦ λαοῦ τούτου· λάβε δὲ σεαυτῷ ἀπὸ τῶν πρεσβυτέρων τοῦ λαοῦ· καὶ τὴν ῥάβδον, ἐν ᾗ ἐπάταξας τὸν ποταμὸν, λάβε ἐν τῇ χειρί σου, καὶ πορεύσῃ.
6Behold I will stand there before thee, upon the rock Horeb: and thou shalt strike the rock, and water shall come out of it that the people may drink. Moses did so before the ancients of Israel:Ὅδε ἐγὼ ἕστηκα ἐκεῖ πρὸ τοῦ σὲ ἐπὶ τῆς πέτρας ἐν Χωρήβ· καὶ πατάξεις τὴν πέτραν, καὶ ἐξελεύσεται ἐξ αὐτῆς ὕδωρ, καὶ πίεται ὁ λαός. Ἐποίησε δὲ Μωυσῆς οὕτως ἐναντίον τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραήλ.
7And he called the name of that place Temptation, because the chiding of the children of Israel, and for that they tempted the Lord, saying: Is the Lord amongst us or not?Καὶ ἐπωνόμασε τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ τόπου ἐκείνου, Πειρασμὸς, καὶ Λοιδόρησις, διὰ τὴν λοιδορίαν τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ διὰ τὸ πειράζειν Κύριον, λέγοντας, εἰ ἔστι Κύριος ἐν ἡμῖν, ἢ οὔ;
8And Amalec came, and fought against Israel in Raphidim.Ἦλθε δὲ Ἀμαλὴκ καὶ ἐπολέμει Ἰσραὴλ ἐν Ῥαφιδείν.
9And Moses said to Josue: Choose out men: and go out and fight against Amalec: tomorrow I will stand on the top of the hill having the rod of God in my hand.Εἶπε δὲ Μωυσῆς τῷ Ἰησοῖ, Ἐπίλεξον σεαυτῷ ἄνδρας δυνατοὺς, καὶ ἐξελθὼν παράταξαι τῷ Ἀμαλὴκ αὔριον· καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἕστηκα ἐπὶ τῆς κορυφῆς τοῦ βουνοῦ, καὶ ἡ ῥάβδος τοῦ Θεοῦ ἐν τῇ χειρί μου.
10Josue did as Moses had spoken, and he fought against Amalec; but Moses, and Aaron, and Hur went up upon the top of the hill.Καὶ ἐποίησεν Ἰησοῦς καθάπερ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Μωυσῆς, καὶ ἐξελθὼν παρετάξατο τῷ Ἀμαλήκ· καὶ Μωυσῆς καὶ Ἀαρὼν καὶ Ὢρ ἀνέβησαν ἐπὶ τὴν κορυφὴν τοῦ βουνοῦ.
11And when Moses lifted up his hands, Israel overcame: but if he let them down a little, Amalec overcame.Καὶ ἐγένετο ὅταν ἐπῇρε Μωυσῆς τὰς χεῖρας, κατίσχυεν Ἰσραήλ· ὅταν δὲ καθῆκε τὰς χεῖρας, κατίσχυεν Ἀμαλήκ.
12And Moses’ hands were heavy: so they took a stone, and put under him, and he sat on it: and Aaron and Hur stayed up his hands on both sides. And it came to pass that his hands were not weary until sunset.Αἱ δὲ χεῖρες Μωυσῆ βαρεῖαι· καὶ λαβόντες λίθον ὑπέθηκαν ὑπʼ αὐτὸν, καὶ ἐκάθητο ἐπʼ αὐτοῦ· καὶ Ἀαρὼν καὶ Ὢρ ἐστήριζον τὰς χεῖρας αὐτοῦ ἐντεῦθεν εἷς, καὶ ἐντεῦθεν εἷς· καὶ ἐγένοντο αἱ χεῖρες Μωυσῆ ἐστηριγμέναι ἕως δυσμῶν ἡλίου.
13And Josue put Amalec and his people to flight, by the edge of the sword.Καὶ ἐτρέψατο Ἰησοῦς τὸν Ἀμαλὴκ, καὶ πάντα τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ ἐν φόνῳ μαχαίρας.
14And the Lord said to Moses: Write this for a memorial in a book, and deliver it to the ears of Josue: for I will destroy the memory of Amalec from under heaven.Εἶπε δὲ Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν, Κατάγραψον τοῦτο εἰς μνημόσυνον εἰς βιβλίον, καὶ δὸς εἰς τὰ ὦτα Ἰησοῖ· ὅτι ἀλοιφῇ ἐξαλείψω τὸ μνημόσυνον Ἀμαλὴκ ἐκ τῆς ὑπὸ τὸν οὐρανόν.
15And Moses built an altar: and called the name thereof, The Lord my exaltation, saying:Καὶ ᾠκοδόμησε Μωυσῆς θυσιαστήριον Κυρίῳ· καὶ ἐπωνόμασε τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ, Κύριος καταφυγή μου.
16Because the hand of the throne of the Lord, and the war of the Lord shall be against Amalec, from generation to generation.Ὅτι ἐν χειρὶ κρυφαίᾳ πολεμεῖ Κύριος ἐπὶ Ἀμαλὴκ ἀπὸ γενεῶν εἰς γενεάς.

The same day, there came some of the Pharisees, saying to him: Depart, and get thee hence, for Herod hath a mind to kill thee. And he said to them: Go and tell that fox, Behold, I cast out devils, and do cures today and…
