Los dividí en doce tribus, como naciones; y le inspiré a Moisés cuando su pueblo le solicitó [agua para] beber [diciéndole]: “Golpea la roca con tu vara”, y brotaron de ella doce manantiales y cada tribu supo cuál era su abrevadero, y les protegí con la sombra de una nube e hice descender para ellos el maná y las codornices [y les dije]: “Comed de lo bueno con que os he agraciado”. Pero no fue contra Mí que cometieron una injusticia, sino que la cometieron contra ellos mismos.
