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.

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

He said, "A hand upon the throne of the LORD. The LORD will have war with Amalek from generation to generation.'"
