Furthermore the LORD spake unto me ,
saying ,
I have seen this people ,
and ,
behold ,
it is a stiffnecked #

*
Let me alone ,
that I may destroy them ,
and blot out their name from under heaven :
and I will make of thee a nation mightier and greater than they .
*
So I turned and came down from the mount ,
and the mount burned with fire :
and the two tables of the covenant were in my two hands .
*
And I looked ,
and ,
behold ,
ye had sinned against the LORD your God ,
and had made you a molten calf :
ye had turned aside quickly out of the way which the LORD had commanded you .
*
And I took the two tables ,
and cast them out of my two hands ,
and brake them before your eyes .
*
And I fell down before the LORD ,
as at the first ri #

nights :
I did neither eat bread ,
nor drink water ,
because of all your sins which ye sinned ,
in doing wickedly in the sight of the LORD ,
to provoke him to anger .
*
For I was afraid of the anger and hot displeasure ,
wherewith the LORD was wroth against you to destroy you .
But the LORD hearkened unto me at that time also .

And the LORD was very angry with Aaron to have destroyed him :
and I prayed for Aaron also the same time .
