Exodus 32:10-14

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. 13 Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, your servants, to whom you ^hswore by your own self, and said to them, ⁱ‘I will multiply your offspring as the stars of heaven, and all this land that I have promised I will give to your offspring, and they shall inherit it forever.’” 14 And the Lord ^jrelented from the disaster that he had spoken of bringing on his people.
