1 When the people saw that Moses delayed coming down from the mountain, the people gathered themselves together to Aaron, and said to him, “Come, make us gods, which shall go before us; for as for this Moses, the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we don’t know what has become of him.” Exodus 32:1WEB
2 Aaron said to them, “Take off the golden rings, which are in the ears of your wives, of your sons, and of your daughters, and bring them to me.” Exodus 32:2WEB
3 All the people took off the golden rings which were in their ears, and brought them to Aaron. Exodus 32:3WEB
4 He received what they handed him, fashioned it with an engraving tool, and made it a molded calf. Then they said, “These are your gods, Israel, which brought you up out of the land of Egypt.” Exodus 32:4WEB
5 When Aaron saw this, he built an altar before it; and Aaron made a proclamation, and said, “Tomorrow shall be a feast to YHWH.” Exodus 32:5WEB
6 They rose up early on the next day, and offered burnt offerings, and brought peace offerings; and the people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to play. Exodus 32:6WEB
7 YHWH spoke to Moses, “Go, get down; for your people, whom you brought up out of the land of Egypt, have corrupted themselves! Exodus 32:7WEB
8 They have turned away quickly out of the way which I commanded them. They have made themselves a molded calf, and have worshiped it, and have sacrificed to it, and said, ‘These are your gods, Israel, which brought you up out of the land of Egypt.’” Exodus 32:8WEB
9 YHWH said to Moses, “I have seen these people, and behold, they are a stiff-necked people. Exodus 32:9WEB
10 Now therefore leave me alone, that my wrath may burn hot against them, and that I may consume them; and I will make of you a great nation.” Exodus 32:10WEB
11 Moses begged YHWH his God, and said, “YHWH, why does your wrath burn hot against your people, that you have brought out of the land of Egypt with great power and with a mighty hand? Exodus 32:11WEB
12 Why should the Egyptians talk, saying, ‘He brought them out for evil, to kill them in the mountains, and to consume them from the surface of the earth?’ Turn from your fierce wrath, and turn away from this evil against your people. Exodus 32:12WEB
13 Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, your servants, to whom you swore by your own self, and said to them, ‘I will multiply your offspring as the stars of the sky, and all this land that I have spoken of I will give to your offspring, and they shall inherit it forever.’” Exodus 32:13WEB
14 So YHWH turned away from the evil which he said he would do to his people. Exodus 32:14WEB
15 Moses turned, and went down from the mountain, with the two tablets of the covenant in his hand; tablets that were written on both their sides. They were written on one side and on the other. Exodus 32:15WEB
16 The tablets were the work of God, and the writing was the writing of God, engraved on the tablets. Exodus 32:16WEB
17 When Joshua heard the noise of the people as they shouted, he said to Moses, “There is the noise of war in the camp.” Exodus 32:17WEB
18 He said, “It isn’t the voice of those who shout for victory. It is not the voice of those who cry for being overcome; but the noise of those who sing that I hear.” Exodus 32:18WEB
19 As soon as he came near to the camp, he saw the calf and the dancing. Then Moses’ anger grew hot, and he threw the tablets out of his hands, and broke them beneath the mountain. Exodus 32:19WEB
20 He took the calf which they had made, and burned it with fire, ground it to powder, and scattered it on the water, and made the children of Israel drink it. Exodus 32:20WEB
21 Moses said to Aaron, “What did these people do to you, that you have brought a great sin on them?” Exodus 32:21WEB
22 Aaron said, “Don’t let the anger of my lord grow hot. You know the people, that they are set on evil. Exodus 32:22WEB
23 For they said to me, ‘Make us gods, which shall go before us. As for this Moses, the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we don’t know what has become of him.’ Exodus 32:23WEB
24 I said to them, ‘Whoever has any gold, let them take it off.’ So they gave it to me; and I threw it into the fire, and out came this calf.” Exodus 32:24WEB
25 When Moses saw that the people were out of control, (for Aaron had let them lose control, causing derision among their enemies), Exodus 32:25WEB
26 then Moses stood in the gate of the camp, and said, “Whoever is on YHWH’s side, come to me!” All the sons of Levi gathered themselves together to him. Exodus 32:26WEB
27 He said to them, “YHWH, the God of Israel, says, ‘Every man put his sword on his thigh, and go back and forth from gate to gate throughout the camp, and every man kill his brother, and every man his companion, and every man his neighbor.’” Exodus 32:27WEB
28 The sons of Levi did according to the word of Moses. About three thousand men fell of the people that day. Exodus 32:28WEB
29 Moses said, “Consecrate yourselves today to YHWH, for every man was against his son and against his brother, that he may give you a blessing today.” Exodus 32:29WEB
30 On the next day, Moses said to the people, “You have sinned a great sin. Now I will go up to YHWH. Perhaps I shall make atonement for your sin.” Exodus 32:30WEB
31 Moses returned to YHWH, and said, “Oh, this people have sinned a great sin, and have made themselves gods of gold. Exodus 32:31WEB
32 Yet now, if you will, forgive their sin—and if not, please blot me out of your book which you have written.” Exodus 32:32WEB
33 YHWH said to Moses, “Whoever has sinned against me, I will blot him out of my book. Exodus 32:33WEB
34 Now go, lead the people to the place of which I have spoken to you. Behold, my angel shall go before you. Nevertheless, in the day when I punish, I will punish them for their sin.” Exodus 32:34WEB
35 YHWH struck the people, because of what they did with the calf, which Aaron made. Exodus 32:35WEB
