How he met thee by the way, and smote the hindmost of thee, even all that were feeble behind thee, when thou wast faint and weary; and he feared not God.

Verse 18 is found in chapter 25 of Deuteronomy. Measures against commercial deception are established, and Israel is commanded to erase the memory of Amalek because of its attack when the people were vulnerable. Honesty in transactions and memory of historical aggression appear together as matters of justice. Israel must remember both how it should behave toward its neighbors and the violence it suffered on the journey from Egypt.

wie sie dich angriffen auf dem Wege und schlugen die letzten deines Heeres, alle die Schwachen, die dir hinten nachzogen, da du müde und matt warst, und fürchteten Gott nicht.
Que te salió al camino, y te desbarató la retaguardia de todos los flacos que iban detrás de ti, cuando tú estabas cansado y trabajado; y no temió a Dios.
te salió al encuentro por el camino y atacó por detrás a todos los débiles que iban rezagados, mientras tú estabas cansado y agotado. No temió a Dios.
comment il te rencontra dans le chemin, et, sans aucune crainte de Dieu, tomba sur toi par derrière, sur tous ceux qui se traînaient les derniers, pendant que tu étais las et épuisé toi-même.
come egli ti venne ad incontrare nel cammino, e alla coda percosse tutte le persone deboli che venivano dietro a te, essendo tu stanco e affaticato; e non temette Iddio.
Como te saiu ao encontro no caminho, e feriu na tua retaguarda todos os fracos que iam atrás de ti, estando tu cansado e afadigado; e não temeu a Deus.
在路上迎擊你,趁你疲乏困倦時擊殺所有在你後面軟弱的人;並不敬畏上帝。
