8And Amalec came, and fought against Israel in Raphidim.

9And Moses said to Josue: Choose out men: and go out and fight against Amalec: to morrow I will stand on the top of the hill having the rod of God in my hand.

10Josue did as Moses had said, and he fought against Amalec; but Moses, and Aaron, and Hur went up upon the top of the hill.

11And when Moses lifted up his hands, Israel overcame: but if he let them down a little, Amalec overcame.

12And Moses' hands were heavy: so they took a stone, and put under him, and he sat on it: and Aaron and Hur stayed up his hands on both sides. And it happened that his hands were not weary until sunset.

13And Josue put Amalec and his people to flight, by the edge of the sword.

1In my trouble I cried to the Lord: and he heard me.

2OH Lord, deliver my soul from evil lips, and a deceitful tongue.

3What shall be given to you, or what shall be added to you, to a deceitful tongue.

4The sharp arrows of the mighty, with coals that lay waste.

5Sorrow is me, that my sojourning is prolonged! I have dwelt with the inhabitants of cedar:

6my soul has been long a traveler.

7With them that hate peace I was peaceable: when I spoke to them they fought against me without cause.

1And he spoke also a parable to them, that we ought always to pray, and not to faint,

2Saying: There was a judge in a certain city, who feared not God, nor regarded man.

3And there was a certain widow in that city, and she came to him, saying: Avenge me of my adversary.

4And he would not for a long time. But afterwards he said within himself: Although I fear not God, nor regard man,

5Yet because this widow is troublesome to me, I will avenge her, lest continually coming she weary me.

6And the Lord said: Hear what the unjust judge says.

7And will not God revenge his elect who cry to him day and night: and will he have patience in their regard?

8I say to you, that he will quickly revenge them. But yet the Son of Man, when he comes, shall he find, think you, faith on earth?
