⁹ Moses said to Joshua,^(A) “Choose some of our men and go out to fight the Amalekites. Tomorrow I will stand on top of the hill with the staff^(B) of God in my hands.”

¹⁴ Then the Lord said to Moses, “Write^(A) this on a scroll as something to be remembered and make sure that Joshua hears it, because I will completely blot out^(B) the name of Amalek^(C) from under heaven.”

¹³ Then Moses set out with Joshua^(A) his aide, and Moses went up on the mountain^(B) of God.

¹¹ The Lord would speak to Moses face to face,^(A) as one speaks to a friend. Then Moses would return to the camp, but his young aide Joshua^(B) son of Nun did not leave the tent.
