Therefore the people quarreled with Moshe, and said, *Give us water to drink.* Moshe said to them, *Why do you quarrel with me? Why do you test the LORD?*
He called the name of the place Massah, and Merivah, because the children of Yisra'el quarreled, and because they tested the LORD, saying, *Is the LORD among us, or not?*
Moshe said to Aharon, Take your censer, and put fire therein from off the altar, and lay incense thereon, and carry it quickly to the congregation, and make atonement for them: for there is wrath gone out from the LORD; the plague is begun.
