¹⁷ Remember what the Amalekites^(A) did to you along the way when you came out of Egypt. ¹⁸ When you were weary and worn out, they met you on your journey and attacked all who were lagging behind; they had no fear of God.^{(B) 19} When the Lord your God gives you rest^(C) from all the enemies^(D) around you in the land he is giving you to possess as an inheritance, you shall blot out the name of Amalek^(E) from under heaven. Do not forget!

² This is what the Lord Almighty says: ‘I will punish the Amalekites^(A) for what they did to Israel when they waylaid them as they came up from Egypt.
