¹³ They soon forgot his works. They didn't wait for his counsel,

²⁴ The people murmured against Moses, saying, "What shall we drink?"

² The whole congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron in the wilderness;

¹¹ They forgot his doings, His wondrous works that he had shown them.

¹⁷ Thus says Yahweh, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: I am Yahweh your God, who teaches you to profit, who leads you by the way that you should go.

¹⁸ Oh that you had listened to my commandments! then had your peace been as a river, and your righteousness as the waves of the sea:

³⁰ They wanted none of my counsel. They despised all my reproof.

²⁵ But you have ignored all my counsel, And wanted none of my reproof;

¹¹ Because they rebelled against the words of God, And condemned the counsel of the Most High.

⁷ He called the name of the place Massah,{Massah means testing.} and Meribah,{Meribah means quarreling.} because the children of Israel quarreled, and because they tested Yahweh, saying, "Is Yahweh among us, or not?"

² Therefore the people quarreled with Moses, and said, "Give us water to drink." Moses said to them, "Why do you quarrel with me? Why do you test Yahweh?"

¹⁷ You shall bring them in, and plant them in the mountain of your inheritance, The place, Yahweh, which you have made for yourself to dwell in; The sanctuary, Lord, which your hands have established.
