33 a‘Then the Lord said to him, “Take your sandals off your feet, for the place where you stand is holy ground.
34 I have surely aseen the oppression of My people who are in Egypt; I have heard their groaning and have come down to deliver them. And now come, I will bsend you to Egypt.” ’
35 “This Moses whom they rejected, saying, a‘Who made you a ruler and a judge?’ is the one God sent to be a ruler and a deliverer bby the hand of the Angel who appeared to him in the bush.
36 aHe brought them out, after he had bshown wonders and signs in the land of Egypt, cand in the Red Sea, dand in the wilderness forty years.
Israel Rebels Against God
37 “This is that Moses who said to the children of Israel, a‘The Lord your God will raise up for you a Prophet like me from your brethren. bHim you shall hear.’
38 a“This is he who was in the1 congregation in the wilderness with bthe Angel who spoke to him on Mount Sinai, and with our fathers, cthe one who received the living doracles to give to us,
39 whom our fathers awould not obey, but rejected. And in their hearts they turned back to Egypt,
40 asaying to Aaron, ‘Make us gods to go before us; as for this Moses who brought us out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what has become of him.’
41 aAnd they made a calf in those days, offered sacrifices to the idol, and brejoiced in the works of their own hands.
42 Then aGod turned and gave them up to worship bthe host of heaven, as it is written in the book of the Prophets:
c‘Did you offer Me slaughtered animals and sacrifices during forty years in the wilderness,
O house of Israel?
c‘Did you offer Me slaughtered animals and sacrifices during forty years in the wilderness,
O house of Israel?
43 You also took up the tabernacle of Moloch,
And the star of your god Remphan,
Images which you made to worship;
And aI will carry you away beyond Babylon.’
And the star of your god Remphan,
Images which you made to worship;
And aI will carry you away beyond Babylon.’
