was burning with fire: and the two tables of the covenant were in my two hands. 009:016 I looked, and behold, you had sinned against Yahweh your God; you had made you a molten calf: you had turned aside quickly out of the way which Yahweh had commanded you. 009:017 I took hold of the two tables, and cast them out of my two hands, and broke them before your eyes. 009:018 I fell down before Yahweh, as at the first, forty days and forty nights; I did neither eat bread nor drink water; because of all your sin which you sinned, in doing that which was evil in the sight of Yahweh, to provoke him to anger. 009:019 For I was afraid of the anger and hot displeasure, with which Yahweh was angry against you to destroy you. But Yahweh listened to me that time also. 009:020 Yahweh was very angry with Aaron to destroy him: and I prayed for Aaron also at the same time. 009:021 I took your sin, the calf which you had made, and burnt it with fire, and stamped it, grinding it very small, until it was as fine as dust: and I cast the dust of it into the brook that descended out of the mountain. 009:022 At Taberah, and at Massah, and at Kibroth Hattaavah, you provoked Yahweh to wrath. 009:023 When Yahweh sent you from Kadesh Barnea, saying, Go up and possess the land which I have given you; then you rebelled against the commandment of Yahweh your God, and you didn't believe him, nor listen to his voice. 009:024 You have been rebellious against Yahweh from the day that I knew you. 009:025 So I fell down before Yahweh the forty days and forty nights that I fell down, because Yahweh had said he would destroy you. 009:026 I prayed to Yahweh, and said, Lord Yahweh, don't destroy your people and your inheritance, that you have redeemed through your greatness, that you have brought forth out of Egypt with a mighty hand. 009:027 Remember your servants, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; don't look to the stubbornness of this people, nor to their wickedness, nor to their sin, 009:028 lest the land whence you brought us out say, Because Yahweh was not able to bring them into the land which he promised to them, and because he hated them, he has brought them out to kill them in the wilderness. 009:029 Yet they are your people and your inheritance, which you brought out by your great power and by your outstretched arm. 010:001 At that time Yahweh said to me, Hew you two tables of stone like the first, and come up to me onto the mountain, and make an ark of wood. 010:002 I will write on the tables the words that were on the first tables which you broke, and you shall put them in the ark. 010:003 So I made an ark of acacia wood, and hewed two tables of stone like the first, and went up onto the mountain,
