Exodus 32:10-12

10 Now therefore ^alet me alone, that ^bmy wrath may burn hot against them and ^cI may consume them, in order that ^dI may make a great nation of you.”

11 But ^eMoses implored the Lord his God and said, “O Lord, why does your wrath burn hot against your people, whom you have brought out of the land of Egypt with great power and with a mighty hand? 12 ^fWhy should the Egyptians say, ‘With evil intent did he bring them out, to kill them in the mountains and to consume them from the face of the earth’? Turn from your burning anger and ^grelent from this disaster against your people.
