New Testament

Exodus 17:12-16 Modern English Version (MEV)

12. But Moses’ hands became heavy. So they took a stone, and put it under him, and he sat on it. And Aaron and Hur supported his hands, one on one side, and the other on the other side. And his hands were steady until the going down of the sun.

13. So Joshua laid low Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword.

14. Then the Lord said to Moses, “Write this as a memorial in a book and rehearse it to Joshua, for I will utterly wipe out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven.”

15. Then Moses built an altar and called the name of it, The Lord Is My Banner;

16. for he said, “For the Lord has sworn that the Lord will have war with Amalek from generation to generation.”
