The rabble who were among them had greedy desires; and also the sons of Israel wept again and said, “Who will give us meat to eat?

David had a craving and said, “Oh that someone would give me water to drink from the well of Bethlehem which is by the gate!”

For the choir director. A Maskil of the sons of Korah.
As the deer pants for the water brooks,
So my soul pants for You, O God.

A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah.
O God, You are my God; I shall seek You earnestly;
My soul thirsts for You, my flesh yearns for You,
In a dry and weary land where there is no water.

I stretch out my hands to You;
My soul longs for You, as a parched land. Selah.

Therefore you will joyously draw water
From the springs of salvation.

Jesus answered and said to her, “If you knew the gift of God, and who it is who says to you, ‘Give Me a drink,’ you would have asked Him, and He would have given you living water.”

but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him shall never thirst; but the water that I will give him will become in him a well of water springing up to eternal life.”
