* Also in Horeb ye provoked # the LORD to wrath , so that the LORD was angry with you to have destroyed you . * When I was gone up into the mount to receive the tables of stone , even the tables of the covenant which the LORD made with you , then I abode in the mount forty #arba #iym # days and forty #arba #iym # nights , I neither did eat bread nor drink water : * And the LORD delivered unto me two tables of stone written with the finger of God ; and on them was written according to all the words , which the LORD spake with you in the mount out of the midst of the fire in the day of the assembly . * And it came to pass at the end of forty #arba #iym # days and forty #arba #iym # nights , that the LORD gave me the two tables of stone , even the tables of the covenant . * And the LORD said unto me , Arise , get thee down quickly from hence ; for thy people which thou hast brought forth out of Egypt have corrupted themselves ; they are quickly turned aside out of the way which I commanded them ; they have made them a molten image . * Furthermore the LORD spake unto me , saying , I have seen this people , and , behold , it is a stiffnecked #H7186people : * 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 .
