02:032:012 Wherefore should the Egyptians speak, and
say, For mischief
did
he bring them out, to slay them in the mountains, and
to
consume
them from the face of the earth? Turn from thy
fierce
wrath,
and repent of this evil against thy people.
02:032:013 Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, thy
servants, to whom
thou
swarest by thine own self, and saidst unto them, I
will
multiply
your seed as the stars of heaven, and all this land
that
I have spoken of will I give unto your seed, and they
shall
inherit it for ever.
02:032:014 And the lord repented of the evil
which he thought to do unto
his
people.
02:032:015 And Moses turned, and went down from the
mount, and the two
tables
of the testimony were in his hand: the tables
were
written
on both their sides; on the one side and on the other
were
they written.
02:032:016 And the tables were the work of God, and
the writing was the
writing
of God, graven upon the tables.
02:032:017 And when Joshua heard the noise of the
people as they shouted,
he
said unto Moses, There is a noise of war in the camp.
02:032:018 And he said, It is not the voice of them
that shout for
mastery,
neither is it the voice of them that cry for being
overcome:
but the noise of them that sing do I hear.
02:032:019 And it came to pass, as soon as he came
nigh unto the camp,
that
he saw the calf, and the dancing: and Moses’
anger waxed
hot,
and he cast the tables out of his hands, and brake
them
beneath
the mount.
02:032:020 And he took the calf which they had made,
and burnt it in the
fire,
and ground it to powder, and strawed it upon the water,
and
made the children of Israel drink of it.
02:032:021 And Moses said unto Aaron, What did this
people unto thee,
that
thou hast brought so great a sin upon them?
02:032:022 And Aaron said, Let not the anger of my
lord wax hot: thou
knowest
the people, that they are set on mischief.
02:032:023 For they said unto me, Make us gods, which
shall go before us:
for
as for this Moses, the man that brought us up out of
the
land
of Egypt, we wot not what is become of him.
02:032:024 And I said unto them, Whosoever hath any
gold, let them break
it
off. So they gave it me: then I cast it into
the fire, and
there
came out this calf.
02:032:025 And when Moses saw that the people were
naked; (for Aaron had
made
them naked unto their shame among their enemies:)
02:032:026 Then Moses stood in the gate of the camp,
and said, Who is on
the
LORD’s side? let him come unto me. And all
the sons of
Levi
gathered themselves together unto him.
