Exodus 32:30-34

English Standard Version

³⁰ The next day Moses said to the people, ^(A)“You have sinned a great sin. And now I will go up to the Lord; ^(B)perhaps I can make atonement for your sin.” ³¹ So Moses returned to the Lord and said, “Alas, ^(C)this people has sinned a great sin. They have ^(D)made for themselves gods of gold. ³² But now, if ^(E)you will forgive their sin—but if not, please ^(F)blot me out of ^(G)your book that you have written.” ³³ But the Lord said to Moses, ^(H)“Whoever has sinned against me, I will blot out of my book. ^34 (I)But now go, lead the people to the place about which I have spoken to you; ^(J)behold, my angel shall go before you. Nevertheless, in the day when I visit, I will visit their sin upon them.”
