Exodus 15:22-26

New American Standard Bible

The Lord Provides Water

^22 (A)Then Moses ^[a]led Israel from the ^[b]Red Sea, and they went out into ^(B)the wilderness of ^(C)Shur; and they went three days in the wilderness and found no water. ²³ When they came to ^(D)Marah, they could not drink the waters ^[c]of Marah, because they were ^[d]bitter; for that reason it was named ^[e]Marah. ²⁴ So the people ^(E)grumbled at Moses, saying, “What are we to drink?” ²⁵ Then he ^(F)cried out to the Lord, and the Lord showed him ^(G)a tree; and he threw it into the waters, and the waters became sweet.

There He ^(H)made for them a statute and regulation, and there He ^(I)tested them. ²⁶ And He said, “^(J)If you will listen carefully to the voice of the Lord your God, and do what is right in His sight, and listen ^(K)to His commandments, and keep all His statutes, ^(L)I will put none of the diseases on you which I have put on the Egyptians; for I, ^(M)the Lord, am your healer.”
