Exodus 15:25-27

Contemporary English Version

^25 (A) Moses asked the Lord for help, and the Lord told him to throw a certain piece of wood into the water. Moses did so, and the water became fit to drink.

At Marah the Lord tested his people and also gave them some laws and teachings. ²⁶ Then he said, “I am the Lord your God, and I cure your diseases. If you obey me by doing right and by following my laws and teachings, I won't punish you with the diseases I sent on the Egyptians.”

²⁷ Later the Israelites came to Elim, where there were twelve springs and 70 palm trees. So they camped there.
