Exodus 17:2-4
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
2 And they chode with Moses, and said: Give us water, that we may drink. And Moses answered them: Why chide you with me? Wherefore do you tempt the Lord?
3 So the people were thirsty there for want of water, and murmured against Moses, saying: Why didst thou make us go forth out of Egypt, to kill us and our children, and our beasts with thirst?
4 And Moses cried to the Lord, saying: What shall I do to this people? Yet a little more and they will stone me.

New International Version
2 So they quarreled with Moses and said, “Give us water(A) to drink.”(B)
Moses replied, “Why do you quarrel with me? Why do you put the Lord to the test?”(C)
3 But the people were thirsty(D) for water there, and they grumbled(E) against Moses. They said, “Why did you bring us up out of Egypt to make us and our children and livestock die(F) of thirst?”
4 Then Moses cried out to the Lord, “What am I to do with these people? They are almost ready to stone(G) me.”
