Numbers 20:9-13

9So Moses took the staff 1from before the Lord, just as He had commanded him; 10and Moses and Aaron summoned the assembly in front of the rock. And he said to them, “2Listen now, you rebels; shall we bring water for you out of this rock?” 11Then Moses raised his hand and struck the rock twice with his staff; and 3water came out abundantly, and the congregation and their livestock drank. 12But the Lord said to Moses and Aaron, “4Since you did not trust in Me, to treat Me as holy in the sight of the sons of Israel, for that reason you shall not bring this assembly into the land which I have given them.” 13Those were called the waters of 56Meribah, 7because the sons of Israel argued with the Lord, and He proved Himself holy among them.
