 32:1  And when the people saw that Moses delayed to come down
out of the mount, the people gathered themselves together unto
Aaron, and said unto him, Up, 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.
 32:2  And Aaron said unto them, Break off the golden earrings,
which [are] in the ears of your wives, of your sons, and of
your daughters, and bring [them] unto me.
 32:3  And all the people brake off the golden earrings which
[were] in their ears, and brought [them] unto Aaron.
 32:4  And he received [them] at their hand, and fashioned it
with a graving tool, after he had made it a molten calf: and
they said, These [be] thy gods, O Israel, which brought thee up
out of the land of Egypt.
 32:5  And when Aaron saw [it], he built an altar before it;
and Aaron made proclamation, and said, To morrow [is] a feast
to the LORD.
 32:6  And they rose up early on the morrow, and offered burnt
offerings, and brought peace offerings; and the people sat down
to eat and to drink, and rose up to play.
 32:7  And the LORD said unto Moses, Go, get thee down; for thy
people, which thou broughtest out of the land of Egypt, have
corrupted [themselves]:
 32:8  They have turned aside quickly out of the way which I
commanded them: they have made them a molten calf, and have
worshipped it, and have sacrificed thereunto, and said, These
[be] thy gods, O Israel, which have brought thee up out of the
land of Egypt.
 32:9  And the LORD said unto Moses, I have seen this people,
and, behold, it [is] a stiffnecked people:
 32:10  Now therefore let me alone, that my wrath may wax hot
against them, and that I may consume them: and I will make of
thee a great nation.
 32:11  And Moses besought the LORD his God, and said, LORD,
why doth thy wrath wax hot against thy people, which thou hast
brought forth out of the land of Egypt with great power, and
with a mighty hand?
 32:12  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.
 32:13  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.
 32:14  And the LORD repented of the evil which he thought to
do unto his people.
 32:15  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.
 32:16  And the tables [were] the work of God, and the writing
[was] the writing of God, graven upon the tables.
 32:17  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.
 32:18  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.
 32:19  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.
 32:20  And he took the calf which they had made, and burnt
[it] in the fire, and ground [it] to powder, and strowed [it]
upon the water, and made the children of Israel drink [of it].
 32:21  And Moses said unto Aaron, What did this people unto
thee, that thou hast brought so great a sin upon them?
 32:22  And Aaron said, Let not the anger of my lord wax hot:
thou knowest the people, that they [are set] on mischief.
 32:23  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.
 32:24  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.
 32:25  And when Moses saw that the people [were] naked; (for
Aaron had made them naked unto [their] shame among their
enemies:)
 32:26  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.
 32:27  And he said unto them, Thus saith the LORD God of
Israel, Put every man his sword by his side, [and] go in and
out from gate to gate throughout the camp, and slay every man
his brother, and every man his companion, and every man his
neighbour.
 32:28  And the children of Levi did according to the word of
Moses: and there fell of the people that day about three
thousand men.
 32:29  For Moses had said, Consecrate yourselves to day to the
LORD, even every man upon his son, and upon his brother; that
he may bestow upon you a blessing this day.
 32:30  And it came to pass on the morrow, that Moses said unto
the people, Ye have sinned a great sin: and now I will go up
unto the LORD; peradventure I shall make an atonement for your
sin.
 32:31  And Moses returned unto the LORD, and said, Oh, this
people have sinned a great sin, and have made them gods of
gold.
 32:32  Yet now, if thou wilt forgive their sin--; and if not,
blot me, I pray thee, out of thy book which thou hast written.
 32:33  And the LORD said unto Moses, Whosoever hath sinned
against me, him will I blot out of my book.
 32:34  Therefore now go, lead the people unto [the place] of
which I have spoken unto thee: behold, mine Angel shall go
before thee: nevertheless in the day when I visit I will visit
their sin upon them.
 32:35  And the LORD plagued the people, because they made the
calf, which Aaron made.
