Week 51 (Book 7): The Wiesel is Saying

 

The Weasel is saying, 

 

And he said to them: Why do you do the likes of these things,

Because you betrayed Me in the midst of the children of Israel

Which Your enemies disgraced, O Lord,

That I will surely obliterate the remembrance of Amalek from beneath the heavens 

 

For I hear evil reports about you, from all these people.  

At the waters of Merivath Kadesh, the desert of Zin,

Which they disgraced the ends of Your anointed.  

Because you did not sanctify Me in the midst of the children of Israel.

 

And the Lord turned toward him and said,

The Lord said to Moses, Inscribe this [as] a memorial in the book,

He gives great salvation to His king,

And He performs kindness to His anointed;

 

Let every soul praise G-d, Halleluyah!

Hallelujah! Praise G-d in His holy place,

Praise Him in the firmament of His might.

To David and to his seed, forevermore. 

 

Joshua weakened Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword.  

"Go, with this your strength, and save Israel from the hand of Midian.

And recite it into Joshua's ears,

Have I not sent you?"

 

You, who sit in the gardens the friends hearken to your voice;  Let me hear [it].

And he said to Him, "Please O Lord, with what shall I save Israel?

Praise Him with His mighty deeds,

Praise Him as befits His superb greatness.

 

Behold, my thousand is the poorest in Menasseh,

And I am the youngest in my father's household."

Praise Him with a shofar blast,

Praise Him with psaltery and lyre.
