Exodus 32:1-35<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When the people saw that Moses was so long in coming down from the mountain, they gathered around Aaron and said, \u201cCome, make us gods who will go before us. As for this fellow Moses who brought us up out of Egypt, we don\u2019t know what has happened to him.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2 <\/sup>Aaron answered them, \u201cTake off the gold earrings that your wives, your sons and your daughters are wearing, and bring them to me.\u201d 3 <\/sup>So all the people took off their earrings and brought them to Aaron. 4 <\/sup>He took what they handed him and made it into an idol cast in the shape of a calf, fashioning it with a tool. Then they said, \u201cThese are your gods, Israel, who brought you up out of Egypt.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5 <\/sup>When Aaron saw this, he built an altar in front of the calf and announced, \u201cTomorrow there will be a festival to the Lord.\u201d 6 <\/sup>So the next day the people rose early and sacrificed burnt offerings and presented fellowship offerings. Afterward they sat down to eat and drink and got up to indulge in revelry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

7 <\/sup>Then the Lord said to Moses, \u201cGo down, because your people, whom you brought up out of Egypt, have become corrupt. 8 <\/sup>They have been quick to turn away from what I commanded them and have made themselves an idol cast in the shape of a calf. They have bowed down to it and sacrificed to it and have said, \u2018These are your gods, Israel, who brought you up out of Egypt.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n

9 <\/sup>\u201cI have seen these people,\u201d the Lord said to Moses, \u201cand they are a stiff-necked people. 10 <\/sup>Now leave me alone so that my anger may burn against them and that I may destroy them. Then I will make you into a great nation.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

11 <\/sup>But Moses sought the favor of the Lord his God. \u201cLord,\u201d he said, \u201cwhy should your anger burn against your people, whom you brought out of Egypt with great power and a mighty hand? 12 <\/sup>Why should the Egyptians say, \u2018It was with evil intent that he brought them out, to kill them in the mountains and to wipe them off the face of the earth\u2019? Turn from your fierce anger; relent and do not bring disaster on your people. 13 <\/sup>Remember your servants Abraham, Isaac and Israel, to whom you swore by your own self: \u2018I will make your descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and I will give your descendants all this land I promised them, and it will be their inheritance forever.\u2019\u201d 14 <\/sup>Then the Lord relented and did not bring on his people the disaster he had threatened.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

15 <\/sup>Moses turned and went down the mountain with the two tablets of the covenant law in his hands. They were inscribed on both sides, front and back. 16 <\/sup>The tablets were the work of God; the writing was the writing of God, engraved on the tablets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

17 <\/sup>When Joshua heard the noise of the people shouting, he said to Moses, \u201cThere is the sound of war in the camp.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

18 <\/sup>Moses replied:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt is not the sound of victory,
    it is not the sound of defeat;
    it is the sound of singing that I hear.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

19 <\/sup>When Moses approached the camp and saw the calf and the dancing, his anger burned and he threw the tablets out of his hands, breaking them to pieces at the foot of the mountain. 20 <\/sup>And he took the calf the people had made and burned it in the fire; then he ground it to powder, scattered it on the water and made the Israelites drink it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

21 <\/sup>He said to Aaron, \u201cWhat did these people do to you, that you led them into such great sin?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

22 <\/sup>\u201cDo not be angry, my lord,\u201d Aaron answered. \u201cYou know how prone these people are to evil. 23 <\/sup>They said to me, \u2018Make us gods who will go before us. As for this fellow Moses who brought us up out of Egypt, we don\u2019t know what has happened to him.\u2019 24 <\/sup>So I told them, \u2018Whoever has any gold jewelry, take it off.\u2019 Then they gave me the gold, and I threw it into the fire, and out came this calf!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

25 <\/sup>Moses saw that the people were running wild and that Aaron had let them get out of control and so become a laughingstock to their enemies. 26 <\/sup>So he stood at the entrance to the camp and said, \u201cWhoever is for the Lord, come to me.\u201d And all the Levites rallied to him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

27 <\/sup>Then he said to them, \u201cThis is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: \u2018Each man strap a sword to his side. Go back and forth through the camp from one end to the other, each killing his brother and friend and neighbor.\u2019\u201d 28 <\/sup>The Levites did as Moses commanded, and that day about three thousand of the people died. 29 <\/sup>Then Moses said, \u201cYou have been set apart to the Lord today, for you were against your own sons and brothers, and he has blessed you this day.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

30 <\/sup>The next day Moses said to the people, \u201cYou have committed a great sin. But now I will go up to the Lord; perhaps I can make atonement for your sin.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

31 <\/sup>So Moses went back to the Lord and said, \u201cOh, what a great sin these people have committed! They have made themselves gods of gold. 32 <\/sup>But now, please forgive their sin\u2014but if not, then blot me out of the book you have written.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

33 <\/sup>The Lord replied to Moses, \u201cWhoever has sinned against me I will blot out of my book. 34 <\/sup>Now go, lead the people to the place I spoke of, and my angel will go before you. However, when the time comes for me to punish, I will punish them for their sin.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

35 <\/sup>And the Lord struck the people with a plague because of what they did with the calf Aaron had made.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
