Exodus 15:24-26

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

²⁴ And the people murmured against Moses, saying, “What shall we drink?” ²⁵ And he cried to the Lord; and the Lord showed him a tree, and he threw it into the water, and the water became sweet.

There the Lord^[a] made for them a statute and an ordinance and there he proved them, ²⁶ saying, “If you will diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord your God, and do that which is right in his eyes, and give heed to his commandments and keep all his statutes, I will put none of the diseases upon you which I put upon the Egyptians; for I am the Lord, your healer.”
