3 So all the people broke off the golden earrings which were in their ears, and brought them to Aaron.
4 aAnd he received the gold from their hand, and he fashioned it with an engraving tool, and made a molded calf. Then they said, “This is your god, O Israel, that bbrought you out of the land of Egypt!”
5 So when Aaron saw it, he built an altar before it. And Aaron made a aproclamation and said, “Tomorrow is a feast to the Lord.”
6 Then they rose early on the next day, offered burnt offerings, and brought peace offerings; and the people asat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.
7 And the Lord said to Moses, a“Go, get down! For your people whom you brought out of the land of Egypt bhave corrupted themselves.
8 They have turned aside quickly out of the way which aI commanded them. They have made themselves a molded calf, and worshiped it and sacrificed to it, and said, b‘This is your god, O Israel, that brought you out of the land of Egypt!’ ”
9 And the Lord said to Moses, a“I have seen this people, and indeed it is a1 stiff-necked people!
10 Now therefore, alet Me alone, that bMy wrath may burn hot against them and I may1 consume them. And cI will make of you a great nation.”
