22 So Moses brought Israel from the Red Sea, and they went out into the wilderness of Shud; and they went three days in the wilderness, and found no water. 23 And when they came to Morath, they could not drink the waters of Morath, for they were bitter; therefore the name of the place was called Morath. 24 And the people murmured against Moses, saying, What shall we drink? 25 And Moses prayed before the LORD; and the LORD showed him a tree, and when he cast it into the water, the water became sweet; there the LORD taught him laws and ordinances, and there he tested him, 26 And said to him, If you will diligently hearken to the voice of the LORD your God and will do that which is right in his sight and will obey his commandments and keep all his statutes, I will bring none of these plagues upon you which I have brought upon the Egyptians; for I am the LORD your Healer. 27 And they came to Elim, where there were twelve springs of water and seventy palm trees; and they encamped there by the water.
