20:7-13:
The
LORD said to Moses, 8 "Take the staff, and you and
your brother Aaron gather the assembly together.
Speak to that rock before their eyes and it will
pour out its water. You will bring water out of the
rock for the community so they and their livestock
can drink." 9 So Moses took the staff from the
LORD's presence, just as he commanded him. 10 He and
Aaron gathered the assembly together in front of the
rock and Moses said to them, "Listen, you rebels,
must we bring you water out of this rock?" 11 Then
Moses raised his arm and struck the rock twice with
his staff. Water gushed out, and the community and
their livestock drank. 12 But the LORD said to Moses
and Aaron, "Because you did not trust in me enough
to honor me as holy in the sight of the Israelites,
you will not bring this community into the land I
give them." 13 These were the waters of Meribah,
where the Israelites quarreled with the LORD and
where he showed himself holy among them. (NIV)
Then
the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, 8 "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 you shall bring water
for them out of the rock, and give drink to the
congregation and their animals." 9 So Moses took the
rod from before the LORD as He commanded him. 10 And
Moses and Aaron gathered the congregation together
before the rock; and he said to them, "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; and water came out
abundantly, and the congregation and their animals
drank. 12 Then the LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron,
"Because you did not believe Me, to hallow Me in the
eyes of the children of Israel, therefore you shall
not bring this assembly into the land which I have
given them." 13 This was the water of Meribah,
because the children of Israel contended with the
LORD, and He was hallowed among them. (NKJ)
And
Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying, 8 Take the rod,
and assemble the congregation, thou, and Aaron thy
brother, and speak ye unto the rock before their
eyes, that it give forth its water; and thou shalt
bring forth to them water out of the rock; so thou
shalt give the congregation and their cattle drink.
9 And Moses took the rod from before Jehovah, as he
commanded him. 10 And Moses and Aaron gathered the
assembly together before the rock, and he said unto
them, Hear now, ye rebels; shall we bring you forth
water out of this rock? 11 And Moses lifted up his
hand, and smote the rock with his rod twice: and
water came forth abundantly, and the congregation
drank, and their cattle. 12 And Jehovah said unto
Moses and Aaron, Because ye believed not in me, to
sanctify me in the eyes of the children of Israel,
therefore ye shall not bring this assembly into the
land which I have given them. 13 These are the
waters of Meribah; because the children of Israel
strove with Jehovah, and he was sanctified in them.
(ASV)
And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 8 Take the rod,
and gather thou the assembly together, thou, and
Aaron thy brother, and speak ye unto the rock before
their eyes; and it shall give forth his water, and
thou shalt bring forth to them water out of the
rock: so thou shalt give the congregation and their
beasts drink. 9 And Moses took the rod from before
the LORD, as he commanded him. 10 And Moses and
Aaron gathered the congregation together before the
rock, and he said unto them, Hear now, ye rebels;
must we fetch you water out of this rock? 11 And
Moses lifted up his hand, and with his rod he smote
the rock twice: and the water came out abundantly,
and the congregation drank, and their beasts also.
12 And the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron, Because
ye believed me not, to sanctify me in the eyes of
the children of Israel, therefore ye shall not bring
this congregation into the land which I have given
them. 13 This is the water of Meribah; because the
children of Israel strove with the LORD, and he was
sanctified in them. (KJV) |
