1 Timothy 2:8

Therefore I want the men in every place to pray, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and dissension.

8 सो मैं चाहता हूं, कि हर जगह पुरूष बिना क्रोध और विवाद के पवित्र हाथों को उठा कर प्रार्थना किया करें ।
9 वैसे ही स्त्रियां भी संकोच और संयम के साथ सुहावने वस्त्रों से अपने आप को संवारे ; न कि बाल गूंथने, और सोने, और मोतियों,
और बहुमोल कपड़ों से, पर भले कामों से।
10 क्योंकि परमेश्वर की भक्ति ग्रहण करने वाली स्त्रियों को यही उचित भी है ।

Exodus 17:11 The Amalekites Defeated

8 The Amalekites(R) came and attacked the Israelites at Rephidim.(S) 9 Moses said to Joshua,(T) “Choose some of
our men and go out to fight the Amalekites. Tomorrow I will stand on top of the hill with the staff(U) of God in my
hands.”

10 So Joshua fought the Amalekites as Moses had ordered, and Moses, Aaron and Hur(V) went to the top of the
hill. 11 As long as Moses held up his hands, the Israelites were winning,(W) but whenever he lowered his hands, the
Amalekites were winning. 12 When Moses’ hands grew tired, they took a stone and put it under him and he sat on it.
Aaron and Hur held his hands up—one on one side, one on the other—so that his hands remained steady till sunset.
(X) 13 So Joshua overcame the Amalekite(Y) army with the sword.

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

15 Moses built an altar(AC) and called(AD) it The Lord is my Banner. 16 He said, “Because hands were lifted up
against[c] the throne of the Lord,[d] the Lord will be at war against the Amalekites(AE) from generation to
generation.”(AF)

17:9 इसलिए मूसा ने यहोशू से कहा, “कुछ लोगों को चुनों और अगले दिन अमालेकियों से जाकर लड़ो। मैं पर्वत की चोटी पर खड़ा
होकर तम्
ु हें दे खग
ूँ ा। मैं परमेश्वर द्वारा दी गई छड़ी को पकड़े रहूँगा।”

17:10 यहोशू ने मस
ू ा की आज्ञा मानी और अगले दिन अमालेकियों से लड़ने गया। उसी समय मस
ू ा, हारून और हूर पहाड़ी की चोटी
पर गए।

17:11 जब कभी मस
ू ा अपने हाथ को हवा में उठाता तो इस्राएल के लोग यद्ध
ु जीत लेते। किन्तु जब मस
ू ा अपने हाथ को नीचे करता
तो इस्राएल के लोग यद्ध
ु में हारने लगते।

17:12 कुछ समय बाद मस

ू ा की बाहें थक गईं। मस
ू ा के साथ के लोग ऐसा उपाय करना चाहते थे, जिससे मस
ू ा की बाहें हवा में रह
सकें। इसलिए उन्होंने एक बड़ी चट्टान मस
ू ा के नीचे बैठने के लिए रखी तथा हारून और हूर ने मस
ू ा की बाहों को हवा में पकड़े रखा।
हारून मस
ू ा की एक ओर था तथा हूर दस
ू री ओर। वे उसके हाथों को वैसे ही ऊपर तब तक पकड़े रहे जब तक सरू ज नहीं डूबा।

17:13 इसलिए यहोशू और उसके सैनिकों ने अमालेकियों को इस यद्ध

ु में हरा दिया।

17:14 तब यहोवा ने मस
ू ा से कहा, “इस यद्ध
ु के बारे में लिखो। इस यद्ध
ु की घटनाओं को एक पस्
ु तक में लिखो जिससे लोग याद
करें गे कि यहाँ क्या हुआ था और यहोशू से कहो कि मैं अमालेकी लोगों को धरती से पर्ण
ू रूप से नष्ट कर दँ ग
ू ा।”

17:15 तब मस
ू ा ने एक वेदी बनायी। मस
ू ा ने वेदी का नाम “यहोवा निस्सी” रखा।

17:16 मस
ू ा ने कहा, “मैंने यहोवा के सिंहासन की ओर अपने हाथ फैलाए। इसलिए यहोवा अमालेकी लोगों से लड़ा जैसा उसने सदा
किया है ।

The Plague of Hail

22 Then the Lord said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand toward the sky so that hail will fall all over Egypt—on people
and animals and on everything growing in the fields of Egypt.” 23 When Moses stretched out his staff toward the
sky, the Lord sent thunder(W) and hail,(X) and lightning flashed down to the ground. So the Lord rained hail on the
land of Egypt;

Solomon’s Prayer of Dedication(AH)

22 Then Solomon stood before the altar of the Lord in front of the whole assembly of Israel, spread out his
hands(AI) toward heaven 23 and said:

“Lord, the God of Israel, there is no God like(AJ) you in heaven above or on earth below—you who keep your
covenant of love(AK) with your servants who continue wholeheartedly in your way. 24 You have kept your promise
to your servant David my father; with your mouth you have promised and with your hand you have fulfilled it—as it
is today.

22 तब सल

अपने को तेरे सम्मुख जानकर चलते हैं, उनके लिये तू अपनी वाचा पूरी करता, और करुणा करता रहता है ।
24 जो वचन तू ने मेरे पिता दाऊद को दिया था, उसका तू ने पालन किया है , जैसा तू ने अपने मुंह से कहा था, वैसा ही अपने हाथ से
उसको परू ा किया है , जैसा आज है ।

1 Kings 8:54

54 When Solomon had finished all these prayers and supplications to the Lord, he rose from before the altar of
the Lord, where he had been kneeling with his hands spread out toward heaven. 55 He stood and blessed(CN) the
whole assembly of Israel in a loud voice, saying:

56 “Praise be to the Lord, who has given rest(CO) to his people Israel just as he promised. Not one word has failed of
all the good promises(CP) he gave through his servant Moses. 57 May the Lord our God be with us as he was with
our ancestors; may he never leave us nor forsake(CQ) us. 58 May he turn our hearts(CR) to him, to walk in obedience
to him and keep the commands, decrees and laws he gave our ancestors.
