23 And they came to (A)Marah, but they could not drink the waters [a]of Marah, for they were [b]bitter; therefore it was named [c]Marah. 24 So the people (B)grumbled at Moses, saying, “What shall we drink?” 25 Then he (C)cried out to Yahweh, and Yahweh showed him (D)a tree; and he threw it into the waters, and the waters became sweet.
There He (E)set for them a statute and a judgment, and there He (F)tested them.

23 When they came to Marah, they could not drink its water because it was bitter. (That is why the place is called Marah.[a](A)) 24 So the people grumbled(B) against Moses, saying, “What are we to drink?”(C)
25 Then Moses cried out(D) to the Lord, and the Lord showed him a piece of wood. He threw(E) it into the water, and the water became fit to drink.
There the Lord issued a ruling and instruction for them and put them to the test.(F)
