12 Kodwa izandla zikaMose zaba nzima; bathatha itshe, walibeka phambi kwakhe, wahlala kulo; o-Aroni noHure basekela izandla zakhe, omunye engalapha, omunye engalapha; zase zihlala ziqinile izandla zakhe laze lashona ilanga.
13 UJoshuwa wamchitha u-Amaleki nabantu bakhe ngosiko lwenkemba.
14 UJehova wathi kuMose: “Kulobe lokhu kube yisikhumbuzo encwadini, ukubeke ezindlebeni zikaJoshuwa ukuthi ngizakuqothula ukukhunjulwa kuka-Amaleki phansi kwezulu.”
15 UMose walakha i-altare, waliqamba igama lokuthi iJehova-Nisi.
16 Wathi: “Isandla singasesihlalweni sobukhosi sikaJehova sokuthi uJehova uyakulwa no-Amaleki izizukulwane ngezizukulwane.”
