Numbers 20:11-13
1599 Geneva Bible
11 Then Moses lift up his hand, and with his rod he smote the rock twice, and the water came out abundantly: so the Congregation, and their beasts drank.
12 ¶ Again, the Lord spake unto Moses, and to Aaron, Because ye believed me not, to [a]sanctify me in the presence 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 [b]Meribah, because the children of Israel strove with the Lord, and he [c]was sanctified in them.
