28 So the sons of Levi did according to the word of Moses. And about three thousand men of the people fell that day.
29 aThen Moses said,1 “Consecrate yourselves today to the Lord, that He may bestow on you a blessing this day, for every man has opposed his son and his brother.”
30 Now it came to pass on the next day that Moses said to the people, a“You have committed a great sin. So now I will go up to the Lord; bperhaps I can cmake atonement for your sin.”
31 Then Moses areturned to the Lord and said, “Oh, these people have committed a great sin, and have bmade for themselves a god of gold!
32 Yet now, if You will forgive their sin—but if not, I pray, ablot me bout of Your book which You have written.”
33 And the Lord said to Moses, a“Whoever has sinned against Me, I will bblot him out of My book.
34 Now therefore, go, lead the people to the place of which I have aspoken to you. bBehold, My Angel shall go before you. Nevertheless, cin the day when I visit for punishment, I will dvisit punishment upon them for their sin.”
35 So the Lord plagued the people because of awhat they did with the calf which Aaron made.
