Can you use the "Shape Water" cantrip to "waterbend," so to speak?

The Shape Water cantrip has a few different effects, including freezing water, changing the color of water, etc.
It also lets you move water, but states that the amount of water you move has to fit within a 5' cube.

Q49 Can this be used to take an amount water out of a larger body of water? For example, can I use this cantrip to lift a few tablespoons of water out of the ocean?

Q50 Can the water that is moved with the spell be moved outside of the original 5' cube? For example, can I take those few tablespoons and move them 10' into the air?

The wording of the spell is a little confusing, because it separates "instantaneously" moving the water from "animating" the water into simple shapes.
At the same time, it's probably worded ambiguously so that players can have a lot of leeway in how they use the spell.

Thank you all!
