Deuteronomy 25:17-19

International Standard Version

Annihilation of the Amalekites

¹⁷ “Remember what the Amalekites did to you along the road while you were coming out of Egypt, ¹⁸ how when you were very tired and weary, they lay in wait for you on the road and eliminated everyone who was lagging behind. They had no fear of God. ¹⁹ Therefore, when the Lord your God has given you rest from all your enemies who surround you in the land that he^[a] is about to give you to possess as an inheritance, you must completely erase the memory of the Amalekites from under heaven. Don’t forget!”
