| Douay-Rheims (RHE) | New International Version (NIV) |
| 23 And they came into Mara, and they could not drink the waters of Mara because they were bitter: whereupon he gave a name also agreeable to the place, calling it Mara, that is, bitterness. | 23 When they came to Marah, they could not drink its water because it was bitter. (That is why the place is called Marah.) |
