Exodus 17:2-4

New International Version - UK

² So they quarrelled with Moses and said, ‘Give us water to drink.’

Moses replied, ‘Why do you quarrel with me? Why do you put the Lord to the test?’

³ But the people were thirsty for water there, and they grumbled against Moses. They said, ‘Why did you bring us up out of Egypt to make us and our children and livestock die of thirst?’

⁴ Then Moses cried out to the Lord, ‘What am I to do with these people? They are almost ready to stone me.’
