Diarrhea and lethargy like Murphy has could be caused by parasites, change in diet, toxin ingestion, infectious viral diseases, blockage in the intestines caused by ingestion of a foreign body, or a mass/growth in the gastrointestinal tract. These is also the possibility of parvovirus infection (a potentially fatal disease that causes gastrointestinal issues such as vomiting and diarrhea) which can be very severe in dogs who have not have been vaccinated. Please make an appointment to have Murphy seen by a veterinarian as soon as possible for diagnosis and treatment, and so that your vet can help get him hydrated in a safe manner. A puppy who is not eating and has diarrhea can develop low blood sugar and dehydration that can be very dangerous if left untreated. You can try boiling some chicken until it is cooked and offering Murphy the broth from it to drink, but he should be seen by a vet asap. I hope Murphy feels better soon!
