# Because you did not trust me or honor me as holy in the eyes of the people of Israel
How Moses showed that he did not trust and honor God can be stated clearly. Alternate translation: "Because you did not trust me or honor me as holy in the eyes of the people of Israel, but struck the rock instead of speaking to it as I told you" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit]])
# in the eyes of the people of Israel
Here the people are represented by their "eyes" to emphasize what they see. Alternate translation: "while the people of Israel were watching you" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-synecdoche]])
