וְהָיָ֗ה כַּאֲשֶׁ֨ר יָרִ֥ים מֹשֶׁ֛ה יָד֖וֹ וְגָבַ֣ר יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל וְכַאֲשֶׁ֥ר יָנִ֛יחַ יָד֖וֹ וְגָבַ֥ר עֲמָלֵֽק׃
At nangyari, kapag itinataas ni Moises ang kanyang kamay, nananaig ang Israel; at kapag ibinababa niya ang kanyang kamay, nananaig ang Amalek.

But any time that Israel looked up high and directed their thoughts103The insistence on intent is the theme connecting this Mishnah to the preceding. to their Father in Heaven they were dominating, otherwise they were falling.
