19 ^aThey made a calf in Horeb,
And worshiped the molded image. ‡

20 Thus ^athey changed their glory
Into the image of an ox that eats grass. ‡

22 Wondrous works in the land of Ham,
Awesome things by the Red Sea.

23 ^aTherefore He said that He would destroy them,
Had not Moses His chosen one ^bstood before Him in the breach,
To turn away His wrath, lest He destroy them. ‡
