Deuteronomy 9:8-16

8Even aat Horeb you provoked the Lord to wrath, and the Lord was so angry with you that he was ready to destroy you. 9 bWhen I went up the mountain to receive the tablets of stone, the tablets of the covenant that the Lord made with you, I remained on the mountain cforty days and forty nights. I neither ate bread nor drank water. 10And dthe Lord gave me the two tablets of stone written with the finger of God, and on them were all the words that the Lord had spoken with you on the mountain out of the midst of the fire eon the day of the assembly. 11And at the end of forty days and forty nights the Lord gave me the two tablets of stone, the tablets of the covenant. 12Then the Lord said to me, fArise, go down quickly from here, for your people whom you have brought from Egypt have acted corruptly. They have gturned aside quickly out of the way that I commanded them; they have made themselves a metal image.’

And lI will make of you a nation mightier and greater than they.’ 15 mSo I turned and came down from the mountain, and nthe mountain was burning with fire. And the two tablets of the covenant were in my two hands. 16And oI looked, and behold, you had sinned against the Lord your God. You had made yourselves a golden
