16 And aI looked, and behold, you had sinned against the Lord your God—had made for yourselves a molded calf! You had turned aside quickly from the way which the Lord had commanded you.
17 Then I took the two tablets and threw them out of my two hands and abroke them before your eyes.
18 And I afell down before the Lord, as at the first, forty days and forty nights; I neither ate bread nor drank water, because of all your sin which you committed in doing wickedly in the sight of the Lord, to provoke Him to anger.
19 aFor I was afraid of the anger and hot displeasure with which the Lord was angry with you, to destroy you. bBut the Lord listened to me at that time also.
20 And the Lord was very angry with Aaron and would have destroyed him; so I prayed for Aaron also at the same time.
21 Then I took your sin, the calf which you had made, and burned it with fire and crushed it and ground it very small, until it was as fine as dust; and I athrew its dust into the brook that descended from the mountain.
22 “Also at aTaberah and bMassah and cKibroth Hattaavah you provoked the Lord to wrath.
