1. And the people saw that Moses delayed to come down from the mountain. And the people gathered to Aaron. And they said to him, Rise up, make for us gods who may go before our face. As for this Moses, the man who brought us up from the land of Egypt, we do not know what has become of him.
|
1. And when the people H5971 saw H7200 that H3588 Moses H4872 delayed H954 to come down H3381 out of H4480 the mount H2022 , the people H5971 gathered themselves together H6950 unto H5921 Aaron H175 , and said H559 unto H413 him, Up H6965 , make H6213 us gods H430 , which H834 shall go H1980 before H6440 us; for H3588 as for this H2088 Moses H4872 , the man H376 that H834 brought us up H5927 out of the land H4480 H776 of Egypt H4714 , we know H3045 not H3808 what H4100 is become H1961 of him.
|
|
2. And Aaron said to them, Break off the rings of gold which are in the ears of your wives, your sons and your daughters; and bring them to me.
|
2. And Aaron H175 said H559 unto H413 them , Break off H6561 the golden H2091 earrings H5141 , which H834 are in the ears H241 of your wives H802 , of your sons H1121 , and of your daughters H1323 , and bring H935 them unto H413 me.
|
|
3. And all the people broke off the rings of gold in their ears, and they brought to Aaron.
|
3. And all H3605 the people H5971 broke off H6561 H853 the golden H2091 earrings H5141 which H834 were in their ears H241 , and brought H935 them unto H413 Aaron H175 .
|
|
4. And he took them from their hand and formed it with an engraving tool. And he made it a casted calf. And they said, These are your gods, O Israel, who made you go up from the land of Egypt.
|
4. And he received H3947 them at their hand H4480 H3027 , and fashioned H6696 it with a graving tool H2747 , after he had made H6213 it a molten H4541 calf H5695 : and they said H559 , These H428 be thy gods H430 , O Israel H3478 , which H834 brought thee up H5927 out of the land H4480 H776 of Egypt H4714 .
|
|
5. And Aaron saw, and he built an altar before it. And Aaron called and said, A feast to Jehovah tomorrow.
|
5. And when Aaron H175 saw H7200 it , he built H1129 an altar H4196 before H6440 it ; and Aaron H175 made proclamation H7121 , and said H559 , Tomorrow H4279 is a feast H2282 to the LORD H3068 .
|
|
6. And they rose early on the morrow, and they offered burnt offerings and brought near peace offerings. And the people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.
|
6. And they rose up early H7925 on the morrow H4480 H4283 , and offered H5927 burnt offerings H5930 , and brought H5066 peace offerings H8002 ; and the people H5971 sat down H3427 to eat H398 and to drink H8354 , and rose up H6965 to play H6711 .
|
|
7. And Jehovah spoke to Moses, Come, go down, for your people whom you caused to go up from Egypt are corrupted;
|
7. And the LORD H3068 said H1696 unto H413 Moses H4872 , Go H1980 , get thee down H3381 ; for H3588 thy people H5971 , which H834 thou broughtest H5927 out of the land H4480 H776 of Egypt H4714 , have corrupted H7843 themselves :
|
|
8. they have quickly turned off from the way which I commanded them; they have made for themselves a casted calf and have bowed to it, and have sacrificed to it. And they have said, These are your gods, O Israel, who brought you up from the land of Egypt.
|
8. They have turned aside H5493 quickly H4118 out of H4480 the way H1870 which H834 I commanded H6680 them : they have made H6213 them a molten H4541 calf H5695 , and have worshiped H7812 it , and have sacrificed H2076 thereunto , and said H559 , These H428 be thy gods H430 , O Israel H3478 , which H834 have brought thee up H5927 out of the land H4480 H776 of Egypt H4714 .
|
|
9. And Jehovah said to Moses, I have seen this people, and, behold, it is a stiffnecked people.
|
9. And the LORD H3068 said H559 unto H413 Moses H4872 , I have seen H7200 H853 this H2088 people H5971 , and, behold H2009 , it H1931 is a stiffnecked H7186 H6203 people H5971 :
|
|
10. And now leave Me alone that My anger may glow against them, that I may consume them. And I will make you a great nation.
|
10. Now H6258 therefore let me alone H5117 , that my wrath H639 may wax hot H2734 against them , and that I may consume H3615 them : and I will make H6213 of thee a great H1419 nation H1471 .
|
|
11. And Moses prayed before the face of Jehovah his God, and he said, Why, O Jehovah, does Your anger glow against Your people whom You caused to go up from the land of Egypt with great power, and with a mighty hand?
|
11. And Moses H4872 besought H2470 H853 the LORD H3068 his God H430 , and said H559 , LORD H3068 , why H4100 doth thy wrath H639 wax hot H2734 against thy people H5971 , which H834 thou hast brought forth H3318 out of the land H4480 H776 of Egypt H4714 with great H1419 power H3581 , and with a mighty H2389 hand H3027 ?
|
|
12. Why should the Egyptians say, For evil He has caused them to go up, to kill them in the mountains, and to consume them on the face of the earth? Turn from Your fierce anger and be moved to pity as to the evil to Your people.
|
12. Wherefore H4100 should the Egyptians H4714 speak H559 , and say H559 , For mischief H7451 did he bring them out H3318 , to slay H2026 them in the mountains H2022 , and to consume H3615 them from H4480 H5921 the face H6440 of the earth H127 ? Turn H7725 from thy fierce wrath H4480 H2740 H639 , and repent H5162 of H5921 this evil H7451 against thy people H5971 .
|
|
13. Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, Your servants to whom You swore by Yourself, and You spoke to them, I will multiply your seed like the stars of the heavens, and all this land which I have said, I will give to your seed. And they shall possess it forever.
|
13. Remember H2142 Abraham H85 , Isaac H3327 , and Israel H3478 , thy servants H5650 , to whom H834 thou sworest H7650 by thine own self , and saidst H1696 unto H413 them , I will multiply H7235 H853 your seed H2233 as the stars H3556 of heaven H8064 , and all H3605 this H2063 land H776 that H834 I have spoken H559 of will I give H5414 unto your seed H2233 , and they shall inherit H5157 it forever H5769 .
|
|
14. And Jehovah was moved to pity concerning the evil which He had spoken to do to His people.
|
14. And the LORD H3068 repented H5162 of H5921 the evil H7451 which H834 he thought H1696 to do H6213 unto his people H5971 .
|
|
15. And Moses turned and went down from the mountain, the two tablets of the testimony in his hand, tablets written on their two sides, on this and on that side they were written.
|
15. And Moses H4872 turned H6437 , and went down H3381 from H4480 the mount H2022 , and the two H8147 tables H3871 of the testimony H5715 were in his hand H3027 : the tables H3871 were written H3789 on both H4480 H8147 their sides H5676 ; on the one side H4480 H2088 and on the other H4480 H2088 were they H1992 written H3789 .
|
|
16. And the tablets were the work of God, and the writing was the writing of God; it was engraved on the tablets.
|
16. And the tables H3871 were the work H4639 of God H430 , and the writing H4385 was the writing H4385 of God H430 , graven H2801 upon H5921 the tables H3871 .
|
|
17. And Joshua heard the voice of the people in their shouting. And he said to Moses, A sound of war in the camp!
|
17. And when Joshua H3091 heard H8085 H853 the noise H6963 of the people H5971 as they shouted H7452 , he said H559 unto H413 Moses H4872 , There is a noise H6963 of war H4421 in the camp H4264 .
|
|
18. And he said, It is not a sound of a cry of might, nor a sound of a cry of defeat; I am hearing the sound of singing.
|
18. And he said H559 , It is not H369 the voice H6963 of them that shout H6030 for mastery H1369 , neither H369 is it the voice H6963 of them that cry H6030 for being overcome H2476 : but the noise H6963 of them that sing H6031 do I H595 hear H8085 .
|
|
19. And it happened, as he came near to the camp and saw the calf and dances, the anger of Moses glowed. And he threw the tablets from his hands, and he broke them below the mountain.
|
19. And it came to pass H1961 , as soon as H834 he came nigh H7126 unto H413 the camp H4264 , that he saw H7200 H853 the calf H5695 , and the dancing H4246 : and Moses H4872 ' anger H639 waxed hot H2734 , and he cast H7993 H853 the tables H3871 out of his hands H4480 H3027 , and broke H7665 them beneath H8478 the mount H2022 .
|
|
20. And he took the calf which they had made and burned it with fire and ground it until it was fine, then he scattered it on the face of the water. And he made the sons of Israel to drink it.
|
20. And he took H3947 H853 the calf H5695 which H834 they had made H6213 , and burnt H8313 it in the fire H784 , and ground H2912 it to H5704 powder H834 H1854 , and strewed H2219 it upon H5921 H6440 the water H4325 , and made H853 the children H1121 of Israel H3478 drink H8248 of it .
|
|
21. And Moses said to Aaron, What has this people done to you that you have made to come on them a great sin?
|
21. And Moses H4872 said H559 unto H413 Aaron H175 , What H4100 did H6213 this H2088 people H5971 unto thee, that H3588 thou hast brought H935 so great H1419 a sin H2401 upon H5921 them?
|
|
22. And Aaron said, Let not anger of my lord glow. You know the people, that it is in evil.
|
22. And Aaron H175 said H559 , Let not H408 the anger H639 of my lord H113 wax hot H2734 : thou H859 knowest H3045 H853 the people H5971 , that H3588 they H1931 are set on mischief H7451 .
|
|
23. And they said to me, Make for us gods who may go before us; as for Moses, the man who caused us to go up from the land of Egypt, we do not know what has become of him.
|
23. For they said H559 unto me, Make H6213 us gods H430 , which H834 shall go H1980 before H6440 us: for H3588 as for this H2088 Moses H4872 , the man H376 that H834 brought us up H5927 out of the land H4480 H776 of Egypt H4714 , we know H3045 not H3808 what H4100 is become H1961 of him.
|
|
24. And I said to them, Whoever has gold, let them break off. And they gave to me, and I cast it into the fire, and this calf came out.
|
24. And I said H559 unto them, Whosoever H4310 hath any gold H2091 , let them break it off H6561 . So they gave H5414 it me : then I cast H7993 it into the fire H784 , and there came out H3318 this H2088 calf H5695 .
|
|
25. And Moses saw the people, that it was unloosed, for Aaron had let it loose for a derision among their enemies.
|
25. And when Moses H4872 saw H7200 that H3588 H853 the people H5971 were naked H6544 ; ( for H3588 Aaron H175 had made them naked H6544 unto their shame H8103 among their enemies H6965 :)
|
|
26. And Moses stood in the gate of the camp and said, Who is for Jehovah? Come to me! And all the sons of Levi assembled to him.
|
26. Then Moses H4872 stood H5975 in the gate H8179 of the camp H4264 , and said H559 , Who H4310 is on the LORD H3068 's side? let him come unto H413 me . And all H3605 the sons H1121 of Levi H3878 gathered themselves together H622 unto H413 him.
|
|
27. And he said to them, So says Jehovah, God of Israel, each one put his sword on his thigh; pass to and fro from gate to gate in the camp, and each one kill his brother, and each one his neighbor, and each one his kindred.
|
27. And he said H559 unto them, Thus H3541 saith H559 the LORD H3068 God H430 of Israel H3478 , Put H7760 every man H376 his sword H2719 by H5921 his side H3409 , and go in H5674 and out H7725 from gate H4480 H8179 to gate H8179 throughout the camp H4264 , and slay H2026 every man H376 H853 his brother H251 , and every man H376 H853 his companion H7453 , and every man H376 H853 his neighbor H7138 .
|
|
28. And the sons of Levi did according to the word of Moses. And about three thousand men of the people fell on that day.
|
28. And the children H1121 of Levi H3878 did H6213 according to the word H1697 of Moses H4872 : and there fell H5307 of H4480 the people H5971 that H1931 day H3117 about three H7969 thousand H505 men H376 .
|
|
29. And Moses said, Fill your hand today for Jehovah, since each one has been against his son and against his brother, and in order to give you a blessing today.
|
29. For Moses H4872 had said H559 , Consecrate H4390 H3027 yourselves today H3117 to the LORD H3068 , even H3588 every man H376 upon his son H1121 , and upon his brother H251 ; that he may bestow H5414 upon H5921 you a blessing H1293 this day H3117 .
|
|
30. And it happened on the morrow, Moses said to the people, You have sinned a great sin. And now I will go up to Jehovah; perhaps I can make atonement for your sin.
|
30. And it came to pass H1961 on the morrow H4480 H4283 , that Moses H4872 said H559 unto H413 the people H5971 , Ye H859 have sinned H2398 a great H1419 sin H2401 : and now H6258 I will go up H5927 unto H413 the LORD H3068 ; peradventure H194 I shall make an atonement H3722 for H1157 your sin H2403 .
|
|
31. And Moses went back to Jehovah and said, Oh, this people has sinned a great sin, and they have made for themselves gods of gold.
|
31. And Moses H4872 returned H7725 unto H413 the LORD H3068 , and said H559 , Oh H577 , this H2088 people H5971 have sinned H2398 a great H1419 sin H2401 , and have made H6213 them gods H430 of gold H2091 .
|
|
32. And now if You will, lift up their sin. And if not, I pray, blot me out from Your book which You have written.
|
32. Yet now H6258 , if H518 thou wilt forgive H5375 their sin H2403 ; and if H518 not H369 , blot H4229 me , I pray thee H4994 , out of thy book H4480 H5612 which H834 thou hast written H3789 .
|
|
33. And Jehovah said to Moses, Whoever has sinned against Me, I will blot him from My book.
|
33. And the LORD H3068 said H559 unto H413 Moses H4872 , Whosoever H4310 H834 hath sinned H2398 against me , him will I blot out H4229 of my book H4480 H5612 .
|
|
34. And now go, lead the people to that place which I have spoken to you. Behold, My Angel shall go before your face. And in the day of My visitation I will visit their sin on them.
|
34. Therefore now H6258 go H1980 , lead H5148 H853 the people H5971 unto H413 the place of which H834 I have spoken H1696 unto thee: behold H2009 , mine Angel H4397 shall go H1980 before H6440 thee : nevertheless in the day H3117 when I visit H6485 I will visit H6485 their sin H2403 upon H5921 them.
|
|
35. And Jehovah plagued the people because they made the calf, which Aaron made.
|
35. And the LORD H3068 plagued H5062 H853 the people H5971 , because H5921 H834 they made H6213 H853 the calf H5695 , which H834 Aaron H175 made H6213 .
