Exo 17:1

Exo 17:3

Exo 17:3The people were thirsty for water there; and the people murmured against Moshe, and said, "Why have you brought us up out of Mitzrayim, to kill us, our children, and our livestock with thirst?"

Exo 17:4

Exo 17:4Moshe cried to the LORD, saying, "What shall I do with these people? They are almost ready to stone me."

Exo 17:6

Exo 17:6Behold, I will stand before you there on the rock in Horev. You shall strike the rock, and water will come out of it, that the people may drink." Moshe did so in the sight of the Zakenim of Yisra'el.

Exo 17:7

Exo 17:7He called the name of the place Massah, and Merivah, because the children of Yisra'el quarreled, and because they tested the LORD, saying, "Is the LORD among us, or not?"
