Context
9Mose akamwambia Yoshua, “Chagua baadhi ya watu wetu na uende kupigana na Waamaleki. Kesho nitasimama juu ya kilima nikiwa na fimbo ya Mungu mkononi mwangu.” 10Kwa hiyo Yoshua akapigana na Waamaleki kama Mose alivyomwagiza, nao Mose, Aroni na Huri wakapanda juu ya kilima. 11Ikawa wakati wote Mose alipokuwa amenyanyua mikono yake, Waisraeli walikuwa wakishinda, lakini kila aliposhusha mikono yake Waamaleki walishinda. 12Mikono ya Mose ilipochoka, wakachukua jiwe na kumpa alikalie. Aroni na Huri wakaishikilia juu mikono ya Mose, mmoja upande huu na mwingine upande huu. Wakaitegemeza mikono yake ikabaki thabiti mpaka jua lilipozama. 13Kwa hiyo Yoshua akalishinda jeshi la Waamaleki kwa upanga.
