Exegesis
The forecasting verb wə-nāṭan {וְנָתַן | wə-nāṭan} ‘it will give’ signals the rock’s response, while the Hifʿil perfect verbs wə-hôṣēʾtā {וְהוֹצֵאתָ | wə-hôṣēʾtā} and wə-hišqīṭā {וְהִשְׁקִיתָ | wə-hišqīṭā} describe the delivery of water.
In context — Numbers 20:8
Take the staff and assemble the congregation—you and Aaron your brother—and speak to the rock before their eyes, and it will release its water. You shall bring water out for them from the rock and provide the congregation and their livestock water to drink.
