Exodus 17:1-3

International Standard Version

God Provides Water from a Rock^(A)

17 The whole congregation of the Israelis set out from the desert^[a] of Sin, traveling from place to place according to the command^[b] of the Lord. They camped at Rephidim, but there was no water for the people to drink.

² The people quarreled with Moses: “Give us water to drink.”

Moses told them, “Why are you quarreling with me? Why are you testing the Lord?”

³ But the people were thirsty there for water, so they^[c] complained against Moses: “Why did you bring us up from Egypt to kill us, our children, and our livestock with thirst?”
