Bitter Waters Made Sweet
22 So Moses brought Israel from the Red Sea; then they went out into the Wilderness of (A)Shur. And they went three days in the wilderness and found no (B)water. 23 Now when they came to (C)Marah, they could not drink the waters of Marah, for they were bitter. Therefore the name of it was called [a]Marah. 24 And the people (D)complained against Moses, saying, “What shall we drink?”
