23 Now when they came to aMarah, they could not drink the waters of Marah, for they were bitter. Therefore the name of it was called1 Marah.
24 And the people acomplained against Moses, saying, “What shall we drink?”
25 So he cried out to the Lord, and the Lord showed him a tree. aWhen he cast it into the waters, the waters were made sweet. There He bmade a statute and an ordinance for them, and there cHe tested them,
26 and said, a“If you diligently heed the voice of the Lord your God and do what is right in His sight, give ear to His commandments and keep all His statutes, I will put none of the bdiseases on you which I have brought on the Egyptians. For I am the Lord cwho heals you.”
27 aThen they came to Elim, where there were twelve wells of water and seventy palm trees; so they camped there by the waters.
