Numbers 20:11-13

11Then MosesH4872 raisedH7311 his handH3027 and struckH5221 the rockH5553 twiceH6471 with his staffH4294, so that a great amount ofH7227 waterH4325 gushed outH3318, and the congregationH5712 and their livestockH1165 were able to drinkH8354.

12But the LORDH3068 saidH559 toH413 MosesH4872 andH413 AaronH175, “BecauseH3282 you did notH3808 trustH539 Me to show My holinessH6942 in the sightH5869 of the IsraelitesH1121H3478H3651, you will notH3808 bringH935 thisH2088H413 assemblyH6951 into the landH776 thatH834 I have givenH5414 them.”

13TheseH1992 were the watersH4325 of MeribahH4809,1 whereH834 the IsraelitesH1121H3478 quarreledH7378 withH854 the LORDH3068, and He showed His holinessH6942 among them.
