Then Amalek came and fought with Israel in Rephidim.

Moses said to Joshua, "Choose men for us, and go out, fight with Amalek. Tomorrow I will stand on the top of the hill with God's rod in my hand."

So Joshua did as Moses had told him, and fought with Amalek; and Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to the top of the hill.

It happened, when Moses held up his hand, that Israel prevailed; and when he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed.

Joshua defeated Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword.

Yahweh said to Moses, "Write this for a memorial in a book, and rehearse it in the ears of Joshua: that I will utterly blot out the memory of Amalek from under the sky."

He said, "Yah has sworn: 'Yahweh will have war with Amalek from generation to generation.'"
