It means to hit or strike the rock, which is what Moses did instead of speaking to it as God had instructed.

From the King James:

  • Numbers 20:11

    And Moses lifted up his hand, and with his rod he smotethe rock twice: and the water came out abundantly, and the congregation drank , and their beasts also.

  • Psalm 78:20

    Behold, he smote the rock, that the waters gushed out , and the streams overflowed ; can he give bread also? can he provide flesh for his people?
