Moses Strikes the Rock

10 Then Moses and Aaron gathered the assembly together before the rock, and he said to them, (A)“Hear now, you rebels: shall we bring water for you out of this rock?” 11 And Moses lifted up his hand and struck the rock with his staff twice, (B)and water came out abundantly, and the congregation drank, and their livestock. 12 And the Lord said to Moses and Aaron, “Because (C)you did not believe in me, (D)to uphold me as holy in the eyes of the people of Israel, therefore you shall not bring this assembly into the land that I have given them.” 13 (E)These are the waters of Meribah,[a] where the people of Israel quarreled with the Lord, and through them he showed himself holy.
