Exodus 14:10
14:10 When
Pharaoh got closer,
the Israelites looked up,
and there were the Egyptians marching after them,
and they were terrified.
The Israelites cried out to the
Lord,
Exodus 14:30-31
14:30 So the
Lord saved
Israel on that day from the power
of the Egyptians, and Israel saw the Egyptians dead
on the shore of the sea.
14:31 When Israel saw
the great power
that the
Lord had exercised
over the Egyptians, they
feared the
Lord, and they believed in
the
Lord and in his servant Moses.
Exodus 17:2-7
17:2 So the people contended
with Moses, and they said, “Give us water to drink!”
Moses said to them, “Why do you contend
with me? Why do you test
the
Lord?”
17:3 But the people were very thirsty
there for water, and they murmured against Moses and said, “Why in the world
did you bring us up out of Egypt – to kill us and our children and our cattle with thirst?”
17:4 Then Moses cried out to the Lord, “What will I do with this people? – a little more and they will stone me!”
17:5 The Lord said to Moses, “Go over before the people; take with you some of the elders of Israel and take in your hand your staff with which you struck the Nile and go.
17:6 I will be standing before you there on the rock in Horeb, and you will strike the rock, and water will come out of it so that the people may drink.” And Moses did so in plain view of the elders of Israel.
17:7 He called the name of the place Massah and Meribah, because of the contending of the Israelites and because of their testing the Lord, saying, “Is the Lord among us or not?”
