Contemporary English Version

The Lord Gives Water from a Rock

17 ^(A) The Israelites left the desert and moved from one place to another each time the Lord ordered them to. Once they camped at Rephidim,^[a] but there was no water for them to drink.

² The people started complaining to Moses, “Give us some water!”

Moses replied, “Why are you complaining to me and trying to put the Lord to the test?”
