(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said that/for/because/then/when hand on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in throne_of Yah war to/for=YHWH with,Amalek from,generation generation )
The Hebrew here is very difficult, and there are a variety of opinions regarding the meaning. Questions include: (1) Whose hand is referred to? Amalek’s, Yahweh’s, or Moses’? (2) What is the hand on (or against)? Yahweh’s throne or banner? (3) What is the meaning of the Hebrew preposition meaning on, against, or above? What does that signify? Rebellion, or taking an oath, or holding onto a symbol of power? If there is another translation in your region, it may be best to simply follow the interpretation it gives. Alternate translation: [Because a hand was on the throne of Yah] or [Because a hand was on the banner of Yah]

This phrase has no verbs in Hebrew. You may need to translate the noun war as a verb. Alternate translation: [Yahweh will make war with Amalek] or [Yahweh will war against Amalek]
