^8 (A)“Take the rod; you and your brother Aaron gather the congregation together. Speak to the rock before their eyes, and it will yield its water; thus ^(B)you shall bring water for them out of the rock, and give drink to the congregation and their animals.”

¹⁰ And Moses and Aaron gathered the assembly together before the rock; and he said to them, ^(A)“Hear now, you rebels! Must we bring water for you out of this rock?”

¹¹ Then Moses lifted his hand and struck the rock twice with his rod; ^(A)and water came out abundantly, and the congregation and their animals drank.
