1. All the congregation of the children of Israel travelled from the wilderness of Sin, starting according to the Lord’s commandment, and encamped in Rephidim; but there was no water for the people to drink.
2. Therefore the people quarrelled with Moses, and said, “Give us water to drink.”Moses said to them, “Why do you quarrel with me? Why do you test the Lord?”
3. The people were thirsty for water there; and the people murmured against Moses, and said, “Why have you brought us up out of Egypt, to kill us, our children, and our livestock with thirst?”
