Exodus 17:2-4 ▼

2 And the people contended with Moses and said, “Give to us water, that we may drink.” And Moses said to them, “Why do you? contend with me? Why do you? test YHWH?”

3 And the people thirsted there for water, and the people grumbled against Moses and said, “Why is this—you have brought us up from Egypt to kill me and my sons and my livestock with thirst?”

4 And Moses cried out to YHWH, saying, “What shall I do for this people? A little longer and they will stone me!”
