Exodus 17:2-4 ▼

2 Therefore the people quarreled with Moses and said, “Give us water so we may [have something to] drink.” And Moses said to them, “Why do you quarrel with me? Why do you tempt the LORD and try His patience?”

3 But the people were thirsty for water; and the people murmured against Moses and said, “Why did you bring us up from Egypt to kill us and our children and our livestock with thirst?”

4 So Moses cried out to the LORD for help, saying, “What shall I do with this people? They are almost ready to stone me.”
