Exodus 17:5-6
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
5 The Lord answered Moses: Go on ahead of the people, and take along with you some of the elders of Israel, holding in your hand, as you go, the staff with which you struck the Nile. 6 I will be standing there in front of you on the rock in Horeb. Strike the rock, and the water will flow from it for the people to drink.(A) Moses did this, in the sight of the elders of Israel.
