⁸ Also in Horeb ye provoked Jehovah to wrath, and Jehovah was angry with you to destroy you.

⁷ And Jehovah spake unto Moses, Go, get thee down; for thy people, that thou broughtest up out of the land of Egypt, have corrupted themselves:

⁸ they have turned aside quickly out of the way which I commanded them: they have made them a molten calf, and have worshipped it, and have sacrificed unto it, and said, These are thy gods, O Israel, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.

⁹ And Jehovah said unto Moses, I have seen this people, and, behold, it is a stiffnecked people:

¹⁰ now therefore let me alone, that my wrath may wax hot against them, and that I may consume them: and I will make of thee a great nation.

¹⁶ And the tables were the work of God, and the writing was the writing of God, graven upon the tables.

¹⁹ They made a calf in Horeb, And worshipped a molten image.

²⁰ Thus they changed their glory For the likeness of an ox that eateth grass.

²¹ They forgat God their Saviour, Who had done great things in Egypt,

²² Wondrous works in the land of Ham, `And' terrible things by the Red Sea.
