Joshuadidas Mosestoldhim, and foughtagainst Amalek;and Moses,Aaron,and Hurwentup to the topof the hill.
But Moses' handswere heavy.Then they tooka stoneand putit underhim, and he saton it; and Aaronand Hursupportedhis hands,oneon onesideand oneon the other.Thus his handswere steadyuntilthe sunset.
NowHe was tellingthem a parableto show that at all timesthey oughtto prayand not to lose heart,
ThereforeI wantthe menin everyplaceto pray,liftingup holyhands,withoutwrathand dissension.
Therefore,confessyour sinsto oneanother,and prayfor one anothersothat you may be healed.The effectiveprayerof a righteous mancanaccomplishmuch.
