5 E o SENHOR disse a Moisés: Passa diante do povo, e toma contigo dos anciãos de Israel; e toma também em tua mão tua vara, com que feriste o rio, e vai:
6 Eis que eu estou diante de ti ali sobre a rocha em Horebe; e ferirás a rocha, e sairão dela águas, e beberá o povo. E Moisés o fez assim em presença dos anciãos de Israel.
7 E chamou o nome daquele lugar Massá e Meribá, pela briga dos filhos de Israel, e porque tentaram ao SENHOR, dizendo: Está, pois, o SENHOR entre nós, ou não?
