Exodus 15:22-27
22So MosesH4872 broughtH5265 IsraelH3478 from the RedH5488 seaH3220, and they went outH3318 into the wildernessH4057 of ShurH7793; and they wentH3212 threeH7969 daysH3117 in the wildernessH4057, and foundH4672 no waterH4325.
23And when they cameH935 to MarahH4785, they couldH3201 not drinkH8354 of the watersH4325 of MarahH4785, for they were bitterH4751: therefore the nameH8034 of it was calledH7121 MarahH4785.1 24And the peopleH5971 murmuredH3885 against MosesH4872, sayingH559, What shall we drinkH8354? 25And he criedH6817 unto YhwhH3068; And YhwhH3068 shewedH3384 him a treeH6086, which when he had castH7993 into the watersH4325, the watersH4325 were made sweetH4985: there he madeH7760 for them a statuteH2706 and an ordinanceH4941, and there he provedH5254 them, 26And saidH559, If thou wilt diligentlyH8085 hearkenH8085 to the voiceH6963 of YhwhH3068 thy GodH430, and wilt doH6213 that which is rightH3477 in his sightH5869, and wilt give earH238 to his commandmentsH4687, and keepH8104 all his statutesH2706, I will putH7760 none of these diseasesH4245 upon thee, which I have broughtH7760 upon the EgyptiansH4714: for I am YhwhH3068 that healethH7495 thee.
27And they cameH935 to ElimH362, where were twelveH6240H8147 wellsH5869 of waterH4325, and threescore and tenH7657 palm treesH8558: and they encampedH2583 there by the watersH4325.
